Friday is the best day of the week..being a public holiday makes it even the bestest...

Oh!pardon my english....My apology also to some friends in GGK on facebook.Although i would love to shop together at the same time i am such an impulsive buyer .My visit this time was so unplanned. So i spent 2 hours at Dchomel .Taman Melawati...and came home feeling jolly good.Look what i brought home...gorgy,gorgy materials to toy with for the next 2 months...lalala

Most of the fabrics that i grab have like novelty prints on them and all baby@children related...animal prints,numbers and figures monograms

Am now dreaming of more baby quilt sets,bags,diaper stackers in the making.......Happy weekends to all my blogger friends..We are all still in the Hari Raya mood ..a lot of open house to attend.Don't eat too much ....

In a stripey loud mood.

If you are bored looking at the simple french pleat curtains hanging at your living area,why don't you transform them into butterfly pleats..no extra costs incurred.You just need a sewing machine,the old curtain and some simple plus and minus maths..

You just need to slide a single hook to hang the ready curtain on the rod.

Back to work in my humble messy studio..

When i close down for the long hari raya break i left the studio in a mess ..too tired to clean up after the overdose of curtain jobs and a bit excited to welcome the long holiday break.And so  today see me tidying up...just my small space.,the rest will just have to wait when the bibik start work tomorrow.My studio looks much better now but my storage room is bloated and i can hardly walk in.....

But i am not going to worry about it as i am now just overwhelm to start my sewing machine running.Look what  spruced up in a day...WITH THE HELP FROM MY ASSISTANT

Tab curtain for a kitchen in INTAN APPARTMENTS,but right now its hanging haphazardly on my makeshift rod..

Some pillow covers for Paediatric Ward,HKL

Towards the end of ramadan see me frantically sewing some pillow covers to be donated to children who are cancer patients in the paediatric ward ,Kuala Lumpur General Hospital..Many weeks ago i stumble on a post on facebook regarding this donation  request.which also calls for chemo cap.But today i reached a dead end when i scroll down to get more information about this gracious project.I distinctively remembered that the deadline is in November..But if i start sewing as early as now i might be able to donate at least 50 pieces ..Insyaalah.And for starters about 10 pieces are ready...

Size:19 inch x 29 inch..Colour:Lavender
