CHARITY - bACK tO sCHOOL pROJECTS

Here I would like to attract all readers to this ads from PONDOK CRAFT organizing some handicraft works for an orphanage home. Please walk over to Ayu's and get more details.

A small thing means a lot to those in need.............

COLORS...... placed and laid out

A pure colour, all ready for delivery. A dozen of tablecloths and 3 dining table spreads with simple stitchery.

These three are of the same design.............yet they differs from each other and form an individual character and personality........ just by colors.

So do us...... we color our own lives....and be different!

SAMPLER BOM from Aimila

Yesterday I received my 8th block from Aimila...... sweet dotty soft colour of my choice.
I like it so much. Thanks Aimila :)

Xstitch by machine

Back here from my hometown last Monday with heavy head and a weak body and soul ...... So much to think and do and I am really exhausted ........ As much as I try to slow down the ticking of time, I have found that it is to no avail........... and I am running with it now!

Before the journey proceeds for the 'Aidul Adha, I managed to embroider these to replace/add few more pillow cases before the year end holiday starts which I expected more relatives to drop by then.

Crib Bedding Sets.

Bedding sets for a dear blogger friend, somewhere in Penang.............. :)

Hubby was left...... alone!

Oh, some vengeance!.....No, just have lots of errands to settle in town... and Hubby was left alone at home. Not to worry coz he would not realized I was missing until he gets hungry........ :) He is so engross with his woodworks and cleaning up his fishing gears and gadgets!

Ok, so I went to the post office for some delivery. Then, to the SSM (CCM/RoC) for renewal. Looking for bits and pieces for my sewing things and fabrics for the tablecloth. Did all the running here and there, in a time crunch and came home with these.

The fabrics for table cloth are all white cotton..... eliminated from the view :)

Three heavy cotton, few meters of printed cottons and a lovely Japanese silk, for my baju raya 'Aidul Adha.

There too, an additional of my craft/sewing books..... a Taiwan printed magz from PBS.

Alone.... with machines and fabrics!

Hubby left me alone for his deep-sea-fishing trips. Yeah!!! :)

............. and I have done lots of thing around the sewing corner...........

- Firstly, dusting off.............. :)
- Managed to complete a diaper stacker for a friend's grandson, delivered and no pics was taken... :(
- Dug up scraps...........Lots of fabrics cutting for few new projects.... my WIP's.
- Started on my embroidery things ........ cutting, hemming and get the embroidery machine humming again... this time maybe will go on for sometimes..... The first ten set of the table cloth (saperah) were completed for delivery.

NYKOLETT's Own

Another of the NIKOLETT's ......Rosni's choice is the wall-hanging. I managed to add up some quilting details on it.

Rosni, all yours :)

Hexy Sewing Caddy #2

This is the lovely sewing caddy whipped up from Nykolett precious fabrics........ All tooty-fruity and I dearly like this too.

By any chance, if anyone has made this, Penny has added a Linky at the bottom of her page for you to add pics of your creations! Happy stitching everyone!

Not just REMNANTS

What remnants/stash can transformed into................... lots of goodies!

All these were from the fabrics handed over by Nikolett. With just about less than 2 meters fabrics... minus the backing, all utilized to the brim...... Here goes..........

This is a table runner with matching coasters


A wall-hanging for your kitchen/dining.
A quilted toiletries/makeup bag with matching box pouch.

And the favourite sewing caddy.So, dear Rosni, I am leaving them to you to pick up one for our own.... :)

Labels

I was waiting patiently for this little bundle from kucinpurple to come knocking our front door... and it arrived today. Look at the satin roll............lovely and sharp prints.
And below are my previous labels, using a hot pressed method and they did not last long as expected, after few washings and they peeled off.

So I give them a try, the kucinpurple's product..... see how it will turn up in the long run.......

Strawberry Love - completed

The baby comforter...............strawberry love................belongs to Puan Wahida for her baby, due end of this month.

The bed set

The small detail of quilting.............and backing.

Diaper Basket and Stacker

This wrapped basket and a diaper stacker are for Puan Wan Noraini, a neighbour, who awaits patiently for her new grandchild due by end of this month.

All materials are provided by the owner..... and I think using a satin is quite lovely to match the bear design cotton/polyester fabric, the soft colour sort of compliment each other.

Scraps to joy!

What a joy, after the exhaustion of travelling and came home with heavy head, I saw this on my sewing table. The parcel was from NYKOLETT and filled with scraps to get 'belasah' according to Rosni, the owner of a well established Curtains & Soft Furnishing shop.......

Whoever needs some scraps, run over to her place and simply choose one heap of stash there. She has plenty to offer to all .... need less to say, just go and visit her!!

Thanks Rosni! Will think about something for us, both... :)
