Featured : Impiana Dapur Magazine

I'm so happy, 3 of my patchwork tutorials are featured in Jan/Feb 2015 Impiana Dapur magazine!

The feature was for the diy column. The magazine rep asked me if I could contribute diy tutorials on sewn kitchen items. So I decided to go for simple patchwork projects.

The first one is a simple lace mug rug. Look at me there, so chubby! lol :P

The second item is a patchwork table runner. They did not take full photo of the runner but it has lace and contrast fabrics attached to both ends.

And lastly, a strip pieced hostess apron complete with pom pom trims! I love this apron so much, the kitchen themed fabrics I used made it extra special :)

Thank you again to the Karangkraf group for featuring me & my handmades!  :)

My First Magazine Feature 2014 _ Nur Magazine (Karangkraf)

This is a waaayyy overdue post. I was featured in a local magazine in their DIY column for 2 issues in April and May 2014. While I have posted about this on my Instagram and Facebook page, I completely forgot to blog about it.

So here it is. The first was an article about my passion for sewing in Nur Magazine April issue. This is really the highlight of my sewing this year. I remember feeling happy and proud and teary-eyed all at the same time :)

The article is in Bahasa Malaysia, it talks about how I started sewing, my handmade brand, my products among other things. Looking at these pages with my colorful creations on it, just made me feel a tad nostalgic....I wish I can be more productive these days!

This is the cover of May issue of the same magazine. I contributed two tutorials for this issue's DIY column.

The tutorials are for Linen and Lace tissue holder and Kids Apron. The crew came to my house to shoot these tutorials and it was really hard work! It took almost one whole day to finish!

I have another sewing tutorial contribution for a different magazine in January 2015. I will blog about it once I get hold of my copy of that magazine.

Featured On Jennifer Paganelli's Blog

The babydoll swing tops I sewed featured on Sis Boom Day Dreams!

I am truly honored, the Queen herself! Jennifer Paganelli is the designer of Casey Scroll, Sis Boom fabrics, and I love her blog too. Sis Boom Day Dreams is just so girly!

I have tons of her fabrics, she keeps coming up with gorgeous prints that fits my taste in fabrics!

I don't know why but my taste always gravitates towards vintage, retro prints and anything that reminds me of the old world. I love anything damask, paisley and shabby roses, in clean, colorful lines.

Perhaps it's the romantic in me but I think the Casey Scroll prints are just so classy, and girly, and how sad am I when I heard that it is now officially discontinued...Off to hoard more!
