updates are declining,but i am not complaining as i have sheer good reasons..

In between meeting up with customers, stocking up sewing supplies,galavanting  shopping for fabrics,and planning work for my two seamstress ..I am also helping out dear daughter for her first booth sales..You can read all about it here.

Here are some preparations ;




S0me drawstring pouches in varying sizes.

 

And among other things ,some orders for toddlers were also completed;

                     

 

 

And not forgetting a bridal room to décor this weekend....

I am also working on a new style cushion upon request from a senior customer.I shall call it SHELL SHAPED CUSHION..for obvious reason as it does  look like a shell.One is finally done.

 

I think I am ready to work on the actual fabric as I am quite happy as how this experiment turns out..Thanx for dropping by.More shelly and goldy updates coming out soon.

More chairs to cover

More orders for slip covers were received this week.These 6 dining chairs are for Miss Carmen from Shah Alam.Fabrics are from IKEA..Heavy cotton linen for outer and plain soft cotton for inner.

 

 

 

 

 The above is first layer.I will call it the INNER.

And the above is the OUTER cover,just slip it in...no zips,no strings attached and no hassle.

Pssst...i have a new mate...he is amaziing,,,

Blame him for my long absence and slow   blog update..This is my second update of Mr Brother NV1500d.He has move into my room..as there is no way I can fiddle with him in my curtain studio.I have been trying on a few ready designs and I must say till this date i am quite good at changing colors,threading,hooping ,...hahaha...a good pat on my back..

I even have a little file to store all the patterns that I have tried.....( smiling ear to ear )

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I am spending a good 2 hours a day to get acquainted.Lets hope he is able to generate money in the near future.but as for now I am soo happy exploring and doodling with him..Bliss..

Fiber update..

Its cushion making week..just look at these..20 inch square,18 inch square,21 inch x 11 inch and round cushions...all kinds of dimension..

I like to use polyester filling for its lightness and fluffyness..I will really stuff the cushion to the maximum..but it will  get flatten over the years and customers will come back to top up with more fiber.. 

With or without?Which is better?

 

This week begins with covers for 8 dining chairs.Although the chair is best in its natural skin somehow dear owner insisted on a make over to blend with the new curtains so to speak.Your wish is my command,madam....and so voila....a little show off....

And now.....just done a few hours ago

Another view from upfront

This was the cover 4 years ago..2010.I like this pattern,short,clean cut and looks cool...

Will have to work on another 7 pieces.The nature of fabric (heavy velvet) and the hand pleated frills  ( as per request )is delaying the sewing process.Anyway its time well spent..The final product is quite satisfying...............

Fabric therapy again....

There is one thing I like about my job is shopping endlessly for fabrics,any time of the month...and the best part of it is letting others pay for your spree!Yipee yeh!

 This time is fabric hunting for a gold wedding in early jun and cheerful colour velvety  fabrics for some round cushions.And now for a little show off.....



For 10 round cushions.

Bedding set for a bridal room.

These are for the night curtains

Thanx for popping in.On your next visit I might have completed some cushions to share with you..Stay tune !

8 lavender *purple*or is it plum*color round cusions in the making..

What a sight...8 cusions done...customer request for 15 pieces.The making of these round cushions really tested my patience to the max....The heavy weight velvety fabric and the short time given to complete was the main hindrance.But thank Allah for the my many years experience( which no money can buy ) in this soft furnishing line , eight was done in 3 days and voila......

This is before  fixing  the buttons at the navel..

and then the buttons were sewn.....you need an 8 inch long needle, a durable thread and not forgetting a strong arm to do this.

This is after fixing the buttons

These are 20 inch x 20 inch square cushions,also ordered by the same customer.These square cushions are so simple to make and done in a breeze.,,making them is my cup of tea....oh lalalala
