My 1st online fabric purchase... The package finally
arrived!! Vinyl coated fabric, elephants and little
girls with balloons... Leslie always packages things
so nicely. Fancy paper and a stash of little envelopes.
Thank you!!

* i had a few seperate orders of fabric so leslie kindly
consolidated my purchases and sent them over
together. Just so you know packages from leslie
don't take this long to arrive!!

Buddies n i were so thrilled!! This is a special edition box
set from Japan. It includes the DVD! Komaneko's little satchel

easy peasy



I tried Three Bears' Little Boxy Pouch tutorial out today
and wow... it was so easy to follow and the results were
amazing. Great tutorial! I tweeked the measurements
and made a pouch for my sister's digital camera. Lined
the inside with terry towelling. Nice and poofy!

soccer dreams



my soccer-crazy sister needed a new bolster cover
so i made one using one of her old soccer jerseys.
I used bootlaces for the ties at the ends. No worries,
mud and grass were absent. Sweet soccer dreams!

i chanced upon this exhibition at Basheercityroom gallery during
lunch today... Oh boy, i was so excited!! Buddy n i went "awww..."
&"ahhhh..." & "ohhhh...." & "woooo...." the whole time. Choosing
an apple was hard for Buddy but for me, i immediately connected
with the who was showing his teeth... ah, perfect expression. haha....
Buddy settled for the demure looking one. So pretty, it has eyelashes
too! Mine looks nervous taking a photo with her. :D We couldn't stop
taking photos... happy day!

i tried....



i thought i'd try my hand at knitting.. so i got all excited
and headed out to buy skiens of yarn, knitting needles..
and more yarn. This is the furthest i got to a scarf...
you're right, it isn't even close. i went back to sewing :)

that bag



My proudest project! Comfy enough to wear :)
a friend's torn t-shirt finds new life as a bag. Straps
look kinda flimsy but hey, it's been tested... and it
can take a lot. (just ask mr B, ha!)
