Works-in-Progress

Long-overdue entry... I've been tied up with work (it's a crazy time right now), was down with a fever and flu with the rest of my family, and just came back from an out-of-town trip for a cousin's wedding... Now that I have a few minutes to spare, here I am!

I've been working on several items for the past few weeks... unfortunately they remain as WIPs due to the above reasons!!

These are cotton reusable grocery bags, my first attempt at making them. I was tempted by the plain fabric to try stenciling, and splurged a little at the craft store buying fabric paints and brishes, not to mention the books too! The fun part was the books came with ready-to-use stencils, so I got right down to work. I dare say these are completely original and one-of-a-kind, cos I won't be able to replicate the designs again (smudges & all hehehe)! One in blue, one in red...


These are my documents bags, this time in bright colors on black. 2 WIPs there....



These are also document bags, closer to being finished than the others! Just need to make the linings and put the whole bag, lining & straps together... I'm getting there, maybe tonight I can squeeze in some sewing time if I'm lucky!



As for tudungs, the last time I went to the shops, I only found 2 designs that I liked out of the many new fabrics that just came in. This one's already limited by the time I bought it, so I have enough for only 1 scallop... first come first served! SOLD!!


T049 SOLD!!

This soft, drapey and flowey jersey is so lovely! I've got 1 scallop with the same jersey for awning, and 1 regular tudung with silvery-grey Shantung silk awning, both still available. The rest of the fabric's already reserved for someone as made-to-order...


T050 SOLD!!

So that's it for now! At least the tudungs are completed :) On top of these bags, now I have another bag request to get started on... wish me luck!!
