The making...

A day in KL

Oh how I wish I had stayed in KL longer.. but what can I do.. I can't leave my baby behind too long.. (hehehe.. makes me homesick).. Before I share with you my main event at KL.. lemme show you what I have snatched with only short period...

My journey to KL was really fun! THanks to Shiela Nice2Craft & Tini Snazzy&Such who had devoted their precious time for me... a total stranger from Sabah. It was such a surprise though, we haven't even met before this.. first time! First date I might say...! Wow.. I was a bit nervous at first... but it turns out to be different from what I have expected. Believe it or not... we seems to be like just like good old friends!

I'll post up the picture of us later.. As for now.. I can't wait to share with you what I've got.. Sure is heaven..These are some of the stuff I bought from Sakura & Yee Button (Craft world).. Errr.. yess.. I do buy nonesense stuff.. wonder when can I use 'em.

Some fabrics I bought from there too... some metres, some quarters and some fat quarters... Only managed to buy very small quantity.. Wanted to get more.. greedy me..!AAnd not forgetting... Sue Bonnet fabric for quilt... Aren't they cute??

*SIGH* I just loved books! But this time I didnt get any English books.. turn out to be Japanese all! hah! Who cares, I love japanese books..

This is the only bookstore we had managed to set my foot on... Kinokuniya, KLCC.

FELTS... are my favourite too! I bought 'em from Daiso, the Curve.

What do I need this for???? Hah... who cares.. I love it cos its cute... I just cant resist stuff from Daiso... all RM5! Cute pegs isn't it??

Ahhh.. I forgot the fabric I bought from Ikea as well... hmm.. next time then...

Not-that-cute Cupcake pincussion

I feel like making cute pincussion for myself... actually I got inspired by Patchwork Pottery . Really admire her work... Err...but mine was awful... Well first attempt... I hope I can make better ones after this trial...

Pink Mary Jane booties with Laced flower

Still the same old pink Mary Jane baby booties for 5-8months.. only difference is the lace flower embelishment

Apple ric rac booties

Made this last nite.. Wanted to test out using my MyLock744D.. but ended up only used 10% of the serging machine.. Still using my normal Janome All-In-One. I need to fiddle around this machine .. lot more to explore.. I must try applique technique using MyLock... next time then..

This is the only part I used the MyLock744D. THe good thing is.. I sew the edges and at the same time it sewn the 2 pieces together.. Save time.. Its using 4 thread with 2 needles... So the stitches is quite neat

Cherry pink booties

Same baby booties pattern with only additional cherry on top. I wanted to sew my next booties with my MyLock744D...

Stay tuned...

Strawberry Pincussion

I need an instant pincussion for my Clover patchwork fine needles. I can't bear to loose even a single pin (100pins costs me RM29.00). So managed to make my own pincussion for easy grab on my pins. I also bought the finger presser for "ironing" my small patches after joining each piece. Also from Clover, cost around RM36 - doh! I haven't shown you my Olfa rottary cutter yet... arrgghh... why does it has to be that expensive? Gone with RM88..

So.. in order not to loose or slip of this ceramic-like finger presser, I tied the pincussion onto it like a keychain. Easier to "iron" & prick the pin... Easy way to get organised..

See.. I made more of the pincussions.. for my friends.. I know they would envy my pincussion.. So I decided to make a few for them as well.. and share the joy in sewing! Anyone interested? But in one condition.. you have to be my friend ..ehhehe..

A bit messy.. but what the heck.. as long as it can holds pins..

Cute eh? I love it too. I used felt material as well.. all hand-sewn.
