The Sweetest gift from a very sweet friend

Hello! ... this is Marsya.. my lil joy..

Just-woke-up face.

Nice baby quilt eh?

No.. I didnt make it... its a gift from my darling friend Sheila for Marsya..
Thank you dear!

Happy surprise day

What day is today? Today is nothing but a Monday... Just feel like sending someone a surprise gift for her newborn son. Just a simple gift.. I hope she likes it... Its a body suit and two washcloth..

To Reena, surprised eh? Nothing much from me, I wanted to sew something extra special... but I wish I had extra magic to make me do work extra fast .. this is the least I can do for now.. Hope you won't mind.. just the embroidery machine does the work...

Baby Dress & a bonnet

I completed a white dress and a white baby bonnet for Antasia's order with a classic Sue Bonnet embroidery design on it.
Not sure of what dress to make for the baby, so I decided to make a semi-formal white dress, at least the mummy can put it on her baby for any occasion.

I hope she likes it, I guess the lil baby can only wear it when she is around 6-12months old, as Antasia requested for a 1yr old dress for her niece.. This dress is american size ..so, for asian, normally we used 1 size smaller.

These are complimentary towels with embroidered name on it.

Oh no! I forgot to take the picture of the baby quilt together with its pillowcase & bolstercase...

I will put up the picture tomorrow then...

Embroidery for gifts

I made this... errr... not exactly the dress.. but only the embroidery part (not the pooh design, that is the original Walt Disney design on it) This dress is for Putri Ainin Ilyana, 2months.. (opps.. sorry Mummy Ida for the wrong spelling)

So cute.. I like this dress... so comfy... I really miss holding a newborn baby..


A towel for her too..

A small gift for my old friend Ida for her new baby...

Glad you liked it..

Red Red Wine Mary Jane booties

I made a surprise gift for baby Sufi Afiqah D.O. Jajakraf, a red booties to match with her diaper stacker... I can't thing of anything else for her gift since birth.. well.. its better late than never..

Ugly Hands

Ouch!! So silly of me playing around with SUPER GLUE!! (or we call it Gam Gajah). Wonder how did my hands turn out that bad. Very painful .. you know! What have I done??

Well.. I made this silly BOX!!
p/s: Jaja.. I need you!!!

I told my self last night.. I'm not going to make any box anymore!!!! "Susah la wehh..!"

Silly but pretty box isn't it?? Wah.. proud of myself of getting this big box done! A bit messy and not really nicely done.. but I don't care.. as long as it can fit my special gift for a couple who is getting married today.. I'm going to their wedding tonight..

See what I've made last night.. Of course a last minute work.. I never thought of any gift yet until yesterday, I got the idea of buying a pair of bathtowel & bedsheets... as a wedding gift..

The only thing that makes it special is the embroidery part "Selamat Pengantin Baru, Izz & Imah" which means Happy Wedding to Izz & Imah. Nice??

Good enough for me.. at least I got my experiencing ruining my hands too! Any way I can remove this stain from my hands?? Help!!

A gift from an angel

I received a surprise parcel from an angel a few weeks back, a friend from a faraway land of Texas, a beautiful lady named Rhonda. I can't believe I received such a big gift from her.. I admit I can never buy such luxary fabrics .. although I bought a few online.. but of course i ran out of budget since then.. So I bought whichever I can afford to get here at my place.

I still cannot believe Rhonda would share some of her fabrics... Wow this is HEAVEN!!! I don't know how to repay you for your kindness Rhonda. God Bless you & thank you ...

Oppss.. the box was a bit squashed.. but still in one piece.


Wow.. look at how much this shipping costs..

Look at that curious lil hand!!! Oh no.. Maya is always busy body with new stuff... she'll say.. "Yay..!! Menan..!!" --> meaning "Yay! Toys!!!"


See all these fabrics!!! I have not got the time to rearrange the stash yet.. yeah.. I don't want my "assistant" to interfere with my precious fabrics!!
Rhonda has given me a pattern too.. and tips on sewing/cutting tricks.
Wow! I have a lot to learn now!.

Sew Cute make my day!

I'm sewwww happy today!!! See what I have early this morning...!!

Oooo... I never thought it was made for me... See Jaja's post on this one... "Misteri Baju kecil"

Sew the very very very cutest!!

Jaja.. thanks for this mysterious surprise gift!! So touched... when I first open it.. I said to myself.. "I didn't remember if I ordered this green box?"

Awwwwhhh... so sweet of you Jaja..

A kind note from Jaja...

And a great namecard as well...

wow.. i really admire her work!

Yes.. this is what I've ordered from her.. 10 gift boxes... err... What is it for?? Errmm...Giveaway?? Errmm... I was thinking of making this my product packaging.. See how it goes lah... If the budget is ok... every purchase comes in a box... No promise ya.. I'll see what I can have... Jaja.. more work for you I guess..

Ribbons are beautiful

I just love ribbons! Ribbon embroidery (RE) is a very fine art of embroidery... Wish this one is my very own handmade... Dream on girl.. (errr.. I bought this)... I wonder when can I start making one for my own? This RE handbag is made by Maklang, from Kerteh Trengganu. Beautiful indeed... I love it.

I also bought an RE kit for my own to practice (are you sure Jurra?? you're taking RE online classes and yet nothing has been done so far..) ... hehehe

PS: Maklang or Kak Umi... gimme a lil "kick" to get my homework done!!! So lazy me...

And lastly, Maklang has given me this very meaningful gift, all handmade from her kind heart.. Its a Yassin covered by a handmade flowery fabric cover & tasbih made of glass beads.

Thank you Maklang for your kind thoughts... also thank you for being my friend. We will meet someday. Insya Allah..!

Didi's 3 beautiful princess

I feel honoured when the dress I made has been worn by the "superstars". The 3 dresses was initially ordered from Mrs Badak as a X'mas gift for her friend Didi to her 3 adorable girls.

Here is Didi's story about her 3 girls:

Hello Mazura,

How are you? I am Didi, Jocelyn's friend, who is Mommy to the three Girls whom you made beautiful dresses for last Christmas.

My Children absolutely loved the dresses as it made them feel like Princesses. My Youngest One didn't want to take the dress off ever! Jo and I had to tell her that it was to wear for the very special occasion of Christmas before she wanted to take it off.

Attached with this email are photos of the dresses as worn by my Girls. I've also included a photo of them wearing the dresses at a stage performance during the Gaya Street Christmas Carnival. We decided they were so beautiful that they were perfect for the stage show.

Thank you again for all your expertise. The dresses truly are a delight to wear.
Enjoy!

Best regards,

Didi Wong

Adorable aren't they? I'm "sew" happy when people are happy!
