Countdown 2010

New Year is just a few hours from now..
Wishing you a Happy New Year, May all your 2010 resolution will come true!

This is also to inform you that ALL NEW ORDERS WILL BE CLOSED temporarily until further notice. Although my due date will be in March, I have to concentrate with my own preparation and still in progress of completing some delayed orders.

To all my friends out there who is still waiting for my work to complete, please pray for my health... and strength. I am deeply sorry to drag your request for quite some time, due to my unfit & physically "heavy" now .. my sewing pace has also decreased. Hope you can still bear with me... I will do the best I can.

Thank you for your support & patience everyone!
Without you readers, I won't be here ..

Do email me if you have any enquiries.. I'm still reachable via email aruzamo@yahoo.com or YM: aruzamo or SKYPE: jurramo

Happy New Year

The Doctor Bag

I love this bag...I just love it.. I fell in love with it the moment I saw the sample at Epal.

This is an extra project I made and learned from Epal Centre. If you are an Epal VIP Member, you should receive a newsletter from Epal for December 2009, about this bag.. and they are selling various types of bag handles including the inner iron support handle (for the opening of the bag)

Side view
( the ends of the zippers are neatly wrapped and hand-sewn in a button shape plastic holder)
sorry I didnt manage to take the picture of the inner stuff.
I never knew there are so many things used to make a bag that I never seen before..

This is the opening of the bag... very wide.. I like it... The openings are supported by a hidden metal handle , also hand-sewn into it... hardly noticeable right?

The best of all... I've gone thru the challenge of sewing this bag.. looks easy... but if you got the technique wrong... only God knows if you have such great patience..

Last but not least, the leather handle are also hand-sewn... to attach to the body. No worries.. it is strong enough to support your load... cos I used the strong thread for sewing shoes.. That should hold up the strap firmly..

This bag is not for sale or order for this moment... maybe next year...! I would turn it into a diaper bag... or mommies bag...

FYI, I'm the first who made this Doctor Bag here in Epal KK Centre... wow... not sure why no body wants to buy the Kit.. In my opinion, although it is quite pricey.. but the the technique is very unique.. and you can learn a lot from it... Even my hubby can't believe I've made this bag!!! He finally HOLD it.. OPEN it... PEEK inside it... OBSERVE my workmanship ...and was quite impressed with my work.. "THIS IS GOOD WORK" he said. I never heard him complimenting my work all this while.. hehe.. He made my day today~

Cutie Hello Kitty

Another cute set of towels (from small face towel, medium & large towel) for a Hello Kitty Fan Shirley for her adorable girl Anniesen..
as she really love Hello Kitty soooo much..

Cute set isnt it? I love it too.. I must make one for myself too... err.. for baby .. hehe..

Stash swap

I received my stash swap from Diesha last week, so happy to receive the goodies! Thanks Diesha! I love it... Above pic is the main stash - 3 fat quarters, 10 buttons (got more than 10), 2 A4 size felt, and 2 types of ribbon (got 1 extra piece).

These are the whole stash, together with the extra special stash from the sender.. a few shapely cut felt for embelishment, extra ribbon and a piece of handmade ribbon embroidery ... A very nice stash indeed.

Thanks again Diesha, sorry I forgot to sms u.. when I received it.

Hexy #8

Completed my Hexy #8 for kak Dee, with theme of red & yellow.
Another 2 sets for her as well, the last 2 sets will be black & yellow. Hope to get it done by this week..

Phew.. I sure did a marathon.. I managed to cope up with all 10 sets within 2 months!
Wow what a challenging achievement indeed.
I started my 2nd hexy set only in November, and now I'm finishing my last 2 sets in Mid Dec.
(pat my own shoulders)

I really like this art of hand sewn method... at least I didnt get to waste my time, I can sit anywhere, any free minutes... to do this hexy.. even in the car...( of course when I'm not driving).
Time is so precious now.. since my big belly really giving hard time sitting with my Janome.

Sorry for all my friends out there who is still waiting for their orders.. Sorrryyy if i dragged it too long.. I might have to cancel orders, or put on hold until after confinement.. But I will try my best to make as much as I can by end of Dec 2009.

After new year 2010, it will be a new year for me.. I will be concerntrating with my own health, my own newborn preparation..(arrghh.. I hv not made any for my coming bb yet.. boo hoo hoo).. and a new life will begin..

Sorry to dissapoint some of you readers... well, I'm doing my best..
Wish me luck!

My Maternity blouse

Finally I get the chance to make my own maternity blouse....

Unfortunately my hubby teased me when I put this on... he said since when did I started to wear colorful clothes... You look like a clown! He said! ARRRGGGHH...!!!! Is there something wrong with the color?? Oh gost I was so damn angry...!

Yeaah.. I admit I normally wear black or dark colored PLAIN blouse... hoping to look "slimmer". But I thought of a little change.... Eiikk.. it really pissed me off this time... and I was suppose to wear it yesterday to a wedding... Since I got that irritating comments.. I put it away..! Sob..

*sigh* hah well... I'll make a new one.. with a dull color next..
Not sure if I had a bad taste or he's the one who is blind...
