Something's brewing

came across a website and it inspired me to do it via this method rather than the initial plan .... stay tuned

here's a sneak peak : -

Things I had made ...

Here are some of the things i had made .... pretty simple but i *heart* the fabric and the way it turned out :)

made a simple one first but it looks like it needs a companion

My bunny - made of felt some time ago - and it looks so happy here. i think they go well together ")

Next, i tried to do a pink pin cushion .... trying out different idea - ie sew with the ribbons and do the closure at the bottom and decided to make a matching coaster to go along ... after all, crafting is hardwork and we need a cuppa of drink nearby  

Didn't really like the way the pink border turns out ....

 My pink pin cushion - a friend asked why i need so many pin cushion? errrrrr ..... dunno :P

They looked so happy - sitting on top of the double happiness sewing box (part of my wedding pressie from my mum - it's a chinese tradition thing)

Introducing my sewing room

There are still room for improvements but i reckon that i will take my time to build up my 'creative' space :)

No shelving yet and things are now stored in boxes .... i try to be as neat as possible (ie, clean up after each use) ...

Need to find a place to store all my stash (see the bags on the left)? I am building up my 'fats' pretty fast :P

My yummy sewing threads - some are from spotlight, some are 'wedding pressies' from my mum :)

Needed - an ironing board/mat, some shelving in the room and also a board to display my inspirations

:)

My model

The girl saw my fabric and insisted that I put them on her :)

ideas in my head ...

i have lots of ideas on what i wanna do but i cannot do anything now .....

My attempt with mix and match

many a times, we just buy fabrics on whims n fancy and lately i had caught the quilting/patchwork bug

haven't really started on any real projects BUT i am definitely busy with reading up on online/print resources

even dragged my mum to sign up for class :)

here is my attempt to mix and match with my stash at home ....
