Back To 'Knitting'

Bought this @ Popular for RM23.00

Can't remember when was the last time I knit. But the one I will always remember is my sweater.

My mom knitted a sweater for my dad. It was yellow. I remember watching her patiently follow the steps in her book just to make a perfect sweater for him. I was so excited that I decided to follow her.

I picked the color pink (was my favorite color... hee...). I started to knit my own sweater. Felt like it took me ages to finish up a medium sized sweater. But as a beginner, I was doing pretty good... it was perfect... until I can no longer 'keep' my patience... I was too eager to wear my handmade sweater... seeing my mom finished up knitting my dad's, I was forced to speed up the process...

The result... hahaha... I can say I was both satisfied and regret... the 1st because I made it! I successfully made my own sweater! Yeay for me! The latter, because I skip few steps making it kinda short for me... but overall, I was proud of myself (^^)

Now, I'm planning to teach my kids how to knit. Not just that, I'll also teach them how to sew, crochet like my mom had taught me when I was a kid.

Sewing Project - Tilam Baby

1st trial jahit tilam sendiri. Quite tricky coz guna mesin jahit portable jer... so bila nak pusing2 tilam time jahit corak pada kain tu agak mencabar. But still, manage to complete 2 pieces in such a short time... happy la jugak coz jahit main hentam keromo jer... bukannya pernah attend kursus menjahit pun... huhuhu... dah la tu, bertahun jugak tak menjahit ni... so bila dah siap tu, excited dia terlebih sikit... hahaha...

Still outstanding another piece... maybe boleh complete hujung Dec kot coz sekarang ni tengah siapkan projek wedding doorgift (^^)

Cute Stickers

Found these cute stickers @ Popular when I was shopping for my craft materials 2 nights ago. Was a bit sad coz what I really wanted is out of stock. But I wouldn't say my visit to the store was a waste of time (at least not entirely) considering what I got :) Plus, the price is reasonable…and I did get 70% discount (which I didn't realised until I got home) hehehe…

Mini Album - Almost Done!

Still working on my mini album project. I would say it's 80% done Alhamdulillah :)

Got some photos developed to fill the album…costs me RM2 per piece! Wow!! Never thought a piece of photo would cost that much nowadays…huhuhu…well, maybe because the size is small…but shouldn't smaller size cheaper than bigger ones?…weird…
