Puan Aiza - Baby Iskandar

Some additional items for Puan Aiza

Looks like she is having a baby boy soon....... ISKANDAR!

Pillowcases

Supposed to deliver last week, but I was away from sewing and just managed awhile ago.
24 pieces of pillowcase - 10 white with blue, 12 red with white and 2 white with pink stripes.

RELIEF...

Each was embroidered, iron neatly, pack individually and delivered to the rightful owners this morning......

Argh, what a relief!

WIP - Embroidery

This Janome Memory Craft, Mek, will be my companion for the whole of this week.
She will sings melodiously and embroidering 42 pieces of pillowcases and 15 pieces of tablecloth......while I do my other sewing.

Come on Mek......... we work together hand in hand....... and finish up by this week!

N & H pilowcases and sampler blocks

While embroidering the "N" a friend came and she requested for 2 sets of pillow cases with a 'N' and a 'H' on other two pieces. I took the opportunity to pursue along on my sampler blocks.

H for Heart

I was a little down today............. 'cos of this. If one looks closer, one can see the unfinished crosses............ my machine did not do well and needs caressing for sure.

Need to stitch manually to complete, no big deal, will do it!

N for Now

I will be into embroidery now..... slowly but with proficiency!!!

Bought this design few years back along with the embroidery machine. I did this once for Darr's pillowcase but it came out not to my expectations. This is a trial piece and after resizing I am contented and happy with it. Will make a wall hanging when I have embroidered all, from A - Z. InsyaAllah.

Purity of white

Early morning, I started fresh with this for a neighbour, a gift for her friend's wedding ceremony.

On white...... merely few words..... but it was radiantly pure and modest....... will get along with anything splashed on it.

Patiently waiting......

............to get the final touch!!!!

I did not have 2 hours previously to finish up these lots, to sit, to cut the tail threads and to iron up. Completed the embroidery parts, 'bout 2 weeks ago...... just 24 pieces of pillowcases and 11 pieces of table clothes.

Yet, they have to be delivered soon.... and now ready for packing, finally!

Resume.... results

Yesterday, I thought I could just lazed around the house while peeking on Hubby doing his chores outdoor. It lasted for half an hour..... it was so dry outside and just could not stand the hot air blowing my face......

Ran inside and grabbed these to complete for a dear daughter ( she calls me MAMA) Nurul Husna. All these will be distributed to her friends when the SPM result comes out, which will be announced soon, this month.
All my prayer to you, Husna dear, we know that we can count on you... Insyaallah.

WIP......

These are part of the task that I am enforcing now......endless tablecloths and pillowcases. One piece at a time and they are queuing patiently to get embroidered!
Whilst the machine humming gently besides me........ on the other hand I am getting these basket to get wrapped. Baskets from IKEA and beautiful cotton fabric by owner.....!

ALISHA's own

No earthly joys could bring more pleasure,
Than a little child to love and treasure.

the saying goes and she is the jewel of her parents' eyes and soul......... ALISHA

I have not met this little baby, but I know she deserves this little gift .... made with sincerity and love from me. Hope we will get to know her thro' her mother..... soon.

A panelled design and simple stippling quilted around the sashing, with Alisha's name.

You just bloom and grow up Alisha and be a good Muslimah ....... Aaminn!

Embroidery again.....

All ready to be delivered.......... consist of

: 2 sets of pillow cases


:2 blue pillow cases and a matching table cloth plus a piece of green

:10 pieces of tablecloth

Hope my embroidery machine will have a good rest this weekend for I am off for some new thing to learn......... will update later.

Have a nice weekend to all.

Emb. PILLOWcases

For the past two days my hands were full with these pillow cases. A simple embroidery adorned on one side with a white 2 inches strip to tone down the peachy-pink fabric colour of
Puan Haton's choice. All one dozen for her. But I added up two whites with matching strips to compromise the other set.

And the extra one piece is for me to keep..... :D

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!

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.

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.

EMBROIDERED TABLECLOTH

Before we, hubby and I, left for KL I did the embroidered saperah and made through all and delivered to the owner just on time. 150 pieces ironed, fold, packed individually and accordingly......

What a relief.......... and we shoot off for some long holidays with our children at BK3.

WIP

I am into saperah making again. Have done around 25 pieces only now...... 125 more to go..... the most I can do is 10 pieces per day..... All whites are ready and need ironing...... Tomorrow will hunt for multi colour ones.....

Pity my this poor baby!!!!
