Raya!


Assalamualaikum & Selamat hari Raya Aidilfitri, maaf zahir dan batin
(hope it's not too late... "Raya kan sebulan..." (^_^)


our latest family portrait. from left /back: me, hubby, big bro, little (not so little anymore) bro, sis's hubby, and sis. Middle, mom and dad. Front, little bro aiman, nephew haikal, and niece deyana.


what's my raya story? nothing much. i started off with ramadhan... i was busy sewing, tried to finish customer orders before raya. alhamdulillah... all orders with deposit were done and sent by hand or by post, on time. several orders left, but mostly ordered AFTER i closed orders.

so many things to do before, during and after raya. on raya eve, we moved to a new house, my parents house. it is just about 50 meters from the old one. moving furniture and stuff is the hardest part. we started with bigger furniture, (yes, we do this ourselves), the smaller stuff. the smaller stuff is endless. i just knew that we got soooo many stuff, new stuff, old stuff, useful stuff and rubbish!! suddenly the word "hoarders" came into my mind. scarrryyy.......... need to throw and burn useless stuff after this. and as at this moment, we have not finish moving stuff yet. tired.

due to the moving, i only managed to sew 2 pairs of baju kurung for my MIL, a pair of baju kurung for my niece and a pair of baju melayu for my nephew... me? 2 pairs of baju kurung. what a shame ~ automatically my raya mood hits the ground. first day raya, we went to the graveyard, and the in-laws. then, we hit the bed. tired.

the in-laws.


second day raya, we host a small tahlil ceremony at our house. then, again, we hit the bed. tired.

third day, me and hubby went to Brunei with the in-laws to celebrate raya there and meet relatives some more. until saturday. sunday my nephew and niece went back to KK dah... miss them already.

so what happen now? currently i am sewing my baju kurung. tried to lessen my stash, coz in this new house, i got limited storage area for my ever growing fabrics. in between, i will try to finish late orders.

so i planned to open orders sometime in october. wait ya!!

Selamat Pengantin Baru, Bro!

Assalamualaikum wbt. 27 Oktober 2017, tahun lepas,  abang sulung ku KAWIN!! Hoyehhh!!!!! Alhamdulillah.. Congrats Bro and wife, Emy. Semoga bahagia dan berkekalan hingga ke akhir hayat. Dalam kegembiraan, terselit juga kemabukan. Perjalanan menuju ke rumah pengantin perempuan, aduhai... Jauh ya amat. Dari Nilai ke Serting Hilir, Bandar Seri Jempol, Negeri Sembilan. Timing penerbangan pun tidak ngam. Mabuk la jawabnya. Tapi setiba di kampung kak ipar, best pulak rasa. First time masuk Felda. Rumah rapat-rapat dan tersusun. Tapi boleh tersesat la juga. Haha.. All in all, best family trip! Walaupun penat melayan kanak-kanak riang, kemi tetap ENJOY!! Selamat pengantin baru Bro, and welcome to the family Kakak Ipar (^_^) P/S: In this photo, I only jahit baju kurung lace yang my sister and I pakai tu.

MY FIRST POST SINCE FOREVER

It’s August 2019, and where all the years have gone?!! Let me break down the reason for my absenties. MOTHERHOOD . Don’t get me wrong. I love being a mother to my baby Dayah. So I need to prioritize. Raise my baby first and enjoy the moment. For all the things my hands have held, the best by far is YOU  NEW HOME . Alhamdulillah. Allah SWT grant us to buy a small house, enough for the 3 of us. We moved 2 years ago, but still haven’t finish unpacking (and declutter). It’s like, we’re a small family of 3. How many stuff (or junks) can we possibly have? If I have enough time later, I’ll post another story about it. SEWING is slow lately. My sewing room hasn’t completely done yet. Stuff still cluttering. So many new patterns I’d like to try and learn. I was busy taking orders for sewing baju Raya this Ramadhan. My usual Ramadhan. Lost in a sea of fabrics. Not that I get so many orders, but TIME waits for no man. Now I’m in between work, settling down in a ne...
