Sew Along : Cosmo Bag

one of my sewing group is now organizing a sew along project for cosmo bag, designed by amy butler. Ruzila Kasim started it and phew! rupanya ada ramai yang berminat nak jahit bag ni. as for myself, my story with this bag is ermm quite upsetting. 

i bought this book soon after i read about it at kak Rozi's blog. but then, i had problem understanding the steps as there are not many pictures in it and perlu berangan di situ untuk faham all the steps. i even went to a class, but my two hour session was spent only for cutting the fabrics, and i was so lazy to go back there for another two hour session of ironing. so, i kept the book and didn't go back again.

you can google 'amy butler cosmo bag' to see photos of cosmo bags. 

but here's one that i like, from Made by Rozi Rahman

so lovelies, i've cut all the fabrics i need for the bag.

and i'll start sewing tonight, with hope that i can finish it within few hours. 

and bring it back to kampung tomorrow.

Manizer Bazaar Attack

we (Sewfabby & Made by Rozi Rahman) had our first bazaar last 14 & 15th, as we're still new in this bazaar thingy we decided to try a few places to check out the crowd and to find our niche.

 my DIY chalk board, we made this few days before the market, and i patched the board with fabric scraps. good way to use every single inch of my fabrics.

 our booth, located near to the stage. they had few artist (indi) performing on that day, young singers & rappers. didn't quite like it, i'm getting old.... 

during previous market, i tagged along with my friends from gmj club.
for 2012, i decided to get myself a partner, Rozi from Made by Rozi Rahman.
so lovelies, you will be seing us together at moreeee bazaar after this :)

and most importantly, a big fat hug for our readers who stopped by our booth. it meant a lot to me, knowing that people do read my blog, and still reading my dusty personal blog.
thanks a lot lovelies..!!!

early 2012: my knitting journey

as at january 2012, my knitting skill is 0.5%

or maybe less than that?

i only know how to cast on, and knit stitch

kak Rozi taught me the knit stitch and i learned to cast-on from youtube

so, for now i'm still practicing on how to control my fingers while knitting, 

figuring out which way is the most comfortable one

and my stitches are still here and there, some tight, some loose, some are straight, some gone. 

that's for now, january 9 2012.

by the way, cantik kan my knitting needles? 

bought them from kak Rozi when she got a few sets for sale last year

love the colorful needles, each color represent the needle size, so it's easy to remember

finally...

after a long search, i finally placed my order for sewfabby labels

so after this, all orders will be attached with this beautiful label made by suraya

from insangpari

woven label, preview from aiya

can't wait..!!!

owh one more, Sewfabby will be joining another bazaar, 

this time around it will be at Level 10, Berjaya Times Square, KL

on this coming Jan 14 & 15th

Sewfabby in 2012

Assalamualaikum lovelies,

It's the first day of 2012, and now only I got the time to post an entry here. 

2011 was a great year for Sewfabby

i met new friends with same hobbies, who are willing to share a lot of things

i tried joining markets, the first was during last october at jaya one

we didn't made it to the second one as i was down with fever

but my friends from GMJ helped to set up the booth and kept it running throughout the day without me being there

As for 2012, more markets to come :)

And may Allah bless us, in terms of more exposure and business opportunities 

May you have a great & fruitful year lovelies
