Two posts in a day, I'm on a roll :D
Weekend was super hectic as I scramble to finish these bags before my nephew's birthday which was held at my sis's place last night.
It was supposed to be just one little personalised bag for Nazrin, my nephew, when the story suddenly took a twist. The storyline went something like this :
Crazy Sewing Mommy emerged from sewing room at 11 am : Ta Da! Handmade birthday present for Yayin yeay!
Little Tot Hanan : Grabbed the bag. Anan munye!! Anan munye begggg! (My bag, my bagggg!)
Crazy Sewing Mommy : Noooo....this belongs to Abang Yayin dear...
Little Tot Hanan : ANAN MUNYEEEEEEE! *stomp-stomp-rolling-on-the-floor-loud-wailing*
Super Patient cum Commander Hubby : Please make another one for her. We don't want her grabbing at the bag when Nazrin open his present tonite right? And while you're at it why not make one for Aisha too (he's really impressed with the applique *grin*)
Crazy Sewing Mommy : *sweat* Switch to super mommy mode.
And so I was in the room till 7.30pm, finished just in time to go to the party :D
The bag was really an easy one. I just winged the cutting, thus the different sizes. It's the applique and personalised names that was time consuming.
Three Hearts with a Peeking Owl for Hanan
Nazrin happy with his new bag :)
I love the result. But most importantly, one little tot was happy on the way to the party. And she just knew how to melt my heart with this smile of hers.
I love them!!! I think I just changed my mind on how to make a bag for my daughter. Thanks for the inspiration :)
