thread holder/ organizer

recently, members of this Geng Mesin Jahit group in facebook showed their sewing room or sewing corner for each others view & to give some ideas for those who plan to have one. Rozi from Rozi's Needlework showed us her sewing room and i fell in love with her thread organizer (that's what i call it). 

it's just a simple board with medium size nails, nailed to it. tak tegak, senget sikit supaya benang tak jatuh dari paku tu. her husband made it for her. as for me, my husband is not around. so i did it by myself. 

tak susah pun. i asked the guy at hardware store to cut it 1' x 1' and screw the hook for me. balik rumah, kerja saya ketuk paku saja. :) tapi oleh kerana papan ni tak la secantik mana, something needs to be done. 

maybe i'll paint it tomorrow after work. 

by the way, i've updated my fabric collection. added few new designs and now i have a few choices of linen for your bags, pouch or sleeves lovelies. you can check out the fabrics here. enjoy selecting your fabrics :) 

owh and tak lupa jugak, SELAMAT BERPUASA to my Muslim readers :) 

semoga kita dapat pahala berganda, secara pukal dan secara maksimum. minta maaf ya kalau tersalah tulis or lambat reply e-mail.

after a long silence

hello lovelies :)

it's been so so long since i last posted anything here right? a lot of things happened since my last entry. i got married, went here and there, finished a whole load of assignments and finally everything was settled yesterday. phew! what a relief!

i have few orders pending, due to my lack of time. and now starting to finish them up. and sorry lovelies, i'm not taking any new orders for now until end of august as i have exams, just around the corner. (i'm still studying, a part-timer at OUM taking another degree in mass comm.) so if you can wait till end of august, you may fill up the form, and i will get back to you super soon.

as for the fabric selections, i need to edit them i guess. some of the fabrics are limited only for small items like make up or hand phone sleeves. and i do have few new fabrics too.

will upload some photos soon, some old photos of things i made for your view. 

and here's what i made after such a long time abandoning my sewing kit.

i made covered buttons from fabric scraps i got from kak Sohana Sabir, the owner of myBotang crafty corner & myBotang shoppe

and this was what my partner did with the buttons. he played batu seremban (five stones)
