Sew Me Happy

Assalamualaikum. Softie lah pulak.... Heee...  This pattern is Elephant Softies: Tilly & Tommy . I made this for my cute 2 year old nephew, Hakim. Of course he was excited, but after a minute, he tossed it away like a toy. But I'm happy to make this cute stuff. Will make some more, if I have the TIME. Bought the pattern from www.retromama.etsy.com . Go try.

Assalamualaikum. May is my bestie's birthday. So I made her an embroidered Boxy Zipper Pouch. The original pattern is from Double Zipper Pouch, but I was not ready to do a double. Better practice on a single zipper first. This pattern looks so simple, but the hardest I've ever tried. And to my surprise, it became my favorite. This was my first attempt. A christmas gift for my friend who's celebrating Christmas last year. Ugly. But it's the thought that count, right? :) The second one, I couldn't be more proud of my self. It still hard, but the outcome is amazing, at least to me. Will make more of these. If interested, do email me ya! :) Personalised embroidery pun boleh.

Assalamualaikum and good day everybody!! I am feeling happy today, for I had finished the most complicated, hard, and yet cute, pretty, beautiful and functional wallet I've ever worked on. (Not that I had worked on many) I bought this EmmalineBags Pattern some time ago, and very enthusiastic at first. Upon reading the instruction, halfway, I got lost. So there you go up on the shelf. This was about 2 months ago. Yesterday, while I was working on a customer's order, Aiman pointed at the unfinished wallet, and say, "Kakak, why don't you finish it?"  I was like, OK. lets just finish it tonight. And Alhamdullillah. I managed. And sooo happy with the outcome. But, pictures below is how it supposed to look like.    I just omitted the flap details and the twist lock. The inside, I followed every instruction. I gotta say that this wallet is roomy, as you can see. 12 card slots, 2 cash slots, 1 zipped compartment, and 3 mo...

Assalamualaikum. Day 3, still yet to be found. Since the news of the missing plane, I was anxious and curious, glued to the TV all day. I couldn't touch my machine, even though I have a customer's order to be done.   Saddened, when I think of how the families feel right now. Bewildered. Where are they? What really happened to them? I am so touched that many Malaysians are conducting solat hajat and prayers for the safety of MH370 crews and passengers. In this time of trouble, we go to Allah SWT. In this time of trouble too, we see some people's true color. Insensitivity, inhumanity, obsessed and stupidity. Semoga Allah SWT berikan petunjuk kepada mereka.   Never point finger. Never condemn. It is nobody's fault. Not the pilot. Not the passenger. Not MAS. Not even the government. KUN FAYA KUN If it's meant to be, it will be. This is an unfortunate disaster befalls Malaysia. Doa, doa, doa. Berdoa kepada Allah SWT semoga MH370 ditemui. ...

Assalamualaikum. Amboi lamanya tak berupdate blog kesayangan ku ini. Tuan tanahnya sibuk, teraaaamat sibuk. Sibuk apa, aku pun tak tahu. Masa berjalan begitu pantas. Cemburu agaknya... hihi.. Ok alang-alang mengupdate, aku mau cover daripada post lepas. Selamat bercuti sekolah, Merry Christmas, Selamat tahun baru 2014, Salam Maulidur Rasul, dan Gong Xi Fa Chai. November lepas, kami sekeluarga dengan anak-anak buah bercuti ke KL musim cuti sekolah. Paling gempak pun kami pergi Aquaria di KLCC. Selebihnya bershopping window di Jalan Tunku Abdul Rahman. Hotel kami pun disitu jugak. Hotel Starpoints namanya. Memang favorite place pun Jalan TAR tu. Macam-macam ada. Murahh pulak tuu....  Tu cerita November lepas la. Tahun ni, pergi KL lagiii... hadoi berlubang poket aku. Tapi kali ni mom sponsor catering helper dalam 5 orang. Bawa jalan-jalan. Yalah kan, sudah dapat rezeki lebih, apa salahnya belanja pekerja yang setia membantu. Lagipun, ada yang belum pernah jejak kaki ...
