Ok, now that I have announced my winners, here’s some photos of what I have been making in the past week. They are something easy and fast, to satisfy my sew-craving soul :P hehe

More flex frame purses, using Malaysian Batik (aka Sarong) and Japanese cotton, and fabric book covers ::

What I sew last week

 Today is the 3rd day of Chinese New Year. The busy time has passed, it’s begining to calm down a little, and I got the whole week off ! Yay! So I’m going to be in a sewing frenzy (i hope!).

Coincidently 1st day of Chinese New Year this year falls on Valentine’s Day. So this year it’s extra “loving” special :-)

Thank U y’ll… enjoy your day.

Magic Carpet 2010
Posted on January 13th, 2010 @ 11:42 am

I nominated myself to be a Magic Carpet Ticket Holder.

See the LOGO at my sidebar, it will link you to the information page about this worldwide “blogger gathering”.

This is so fun!

I can’t wait till the 25th of January where I get to post my free giveaways to my lucky readers.

I want to know my readers (yes you! )  :-) .

I know I have a number of readers (google analytics and feedburner tells me so…) but somehow you are all quiet out there…

I always appreciate a comment, even if it’s just a “HI”. Please don’t be shy :-)

Hopefully this event will kick start our conversations and close the barriers. So… look out for my giveaways!

25th Jan to 15th Feb

Oh! Charmaine…
Posted on January 12th, 2010 @ 12:01 pm

Here’s the little doll I whipped up for my cousin’s little girl.

I made this after reading half a dozen of doll tutorials. And finally settled for drawing and cutting out my own pattern. I guess it’s sorta original but I admit I borrow heavily from Martha Steward Black Apple Doll (although I didn’t touch the free pattern they provided).

Charmaine Doll

Dolly Charmaine’s face and hair are made of felt & embroidery. The hands, legs and dress/body are made of calico and cotton. Insides… non-allergic polyfill ;-) .

I just had to embroider my initial “G” on Dolly’s palm. And on her chest, is the baby girl’s name “Charmaine”.

Christmas Ornaments
Posted on November 18th, 2009 @ 3:10 pm

Christmas is just around the corner.
Christmas Ornaments - Snowflakes

I’ve been busy making some Christmas-sy stuff… and this is just one of them. I want to give them away as free gifts and also keep a few for my Christmas tree. I have a very small tree at home, so she don’t need much ornaments.

Christmas Ornaments - Snowflakes

 I handcarved the Snowflake and chopped it on white cotton using Fabric Ink.  These days I’m starting to enjoy rubber carving ;-) .
