Adult booties {For my mum}| 成人室內鞋 {給媽媽} 22.12.10

給媽的室內鞋。媽生日那天剛好我放了室內鞋的照片,我叫弟弟開給媽看,媽看了說,穿出去腳痛,在家穿會滑倒。媽不知道她的女兒已經用防滑布,還有裡面有鋪棉呢。她知道後和弟弟說她要一雙。拖了好久終於縫好了。我用了花布。花布在我們家有特別的意義。媽以前縫製衣服給外婆,給阿姨們都是用花布,我想把花布繼續留在我們的故事裡。忽然想到媽媽縫製衣服給外婆,阿姨們心揪了一下。那是媽對她的母親的愛,對姐姐們的愛~
媽,快教我縫衣服那麼我也可以縫給你。。。哈哈~

This adult booties is for my mum. During my mum's birthday I posted the adult booties photos. I ask my brother to show the booties to my mum. My mum was worry that to wear outdoor the foot will be painful, and if wear at home, will fell down. Well, mum was not aware that her daughter is using anti slipped fabric and batting inside. Once she knew, she ask my brother to tell me that she want a pair. I drag my sewing since I came back from KL. Finally is completed. I use floral pattern fabric. Floral pattern fabric meant alot to my family. Mum was sewing cloth for grandma and her sister. I wish to continue this tradition, let the floral story continue in my family.

Suddenly I thought of the scene when my mum sew cloths for my grandma and aunties, I felt the love of my mum to her family. 

Ma, teach me how to sew cloths, then I can sew for you XD

Washable craft paper pouch | 水洗牛皮紙萬用包

昨晚趕出來的萬用包,好友昇杰臨時臨急和我下的訂單,是要寄去台灣的交換禮物。原本不想接的,看在他用心把我的室內鞋拍到那麼美,然後又任我縫什麼都行,就縫了這個牛皮紙萬用包。想用蕾絲,但是又覺得太娘,因為牛皮紙太有性格了,唯有縫上了一個可愛蝴蝶結做裝飾。我也用類似做了一個蝴蝶髮夾。然後包到美美的~希望聖誕節可以收到~

你可以在這裡買到水洗牛皮紙

I completed this item last night. My good friend SK place this last minute order. Is a gift exchange that he need to send to Taiwan. I suppose not to take the order, but he took so many nice photo of my adult booties and he let me sew whatever I feel comfortable with, so I sew this washable craft paper pouch. I wanted to decorate with lace, but it will turn too girlie, as the washable craft paper itself is very stylish, I just match with a cute ribbon. I also use lace to made a ribbon hair clip, and wrap it nicely. Hopefully it can arrive by Christmas.

You can get the washable craft paper here.

Adult booties | 成人室內鞋 07.12.10



昨晚完成了這雙室內鞋,用了紫色的格子布和灰紫色的點點布再加上素色棉麻做鞋跟。一直都想在綠油油的草坪上拍我的手作照片,剛好今早上去找MR.J吃早餐,他住的公寓那裡的泳池旁有草坪,我就順便在那裡拍照,不遠處有人在打球,小孩在玩,我怕羞,快快閃拍了幾張就跑人。挺喜歡這個設計的配搭,很舒服~

I completed this pair of adult booties last night. I matched the purple checked, grey purple polka dot and plain linen as the heel. I always wish to snap my handmade photos on green green grass. Since I am having breakfast with MR.J this morning and at the apartment he stay, there are green green grass beside the swimming pool, I just simply take a few snaps as there are residents playing ball and kids are playing around. I will blush if they walk over. I quite like the overall design matching, very comfy.

reversible hat | 兩面用帽 011210



這頂帽子是縫給一個很可愛的小男孩,名叫Lukas,他是好友GINI的兒子。GINI是網友的老婆的妹妹。當我被調來新山工作時,她是我最重要的contact。人生地不熟麻煩了她很多。她媽媽煲的靚湯也讓我戀戀不忘。答應了人家要送一頂帽子,敢敢拖到人家快上飛機才車好。希望LUKAS會喜歡,我給他的外號叫『喋包』他的聲音很喋,沒人能夠抗拒他>.<我這次特地用了可愛英國士兵布。和好友女女送的狗狗布。不錯吧?請原諒模特不美。還有哦,你們可別覺得帽子很大,我的頭圍的闊度是51cm,這小孩的呢?是50.5cm,恐怖!

This reversible hat is for a very cute boy named Lukas. He is a son of my good friend, Gini. Gini is the sister of my friend's wife. When I was transfered down to JB, she is always my emergency contact as I was the stranger at the city that I never lived. I have promised that I will sew her son a hat, I drag till when they about to board on plane haha... actually they are flying off to China on Friday. I hope little Lukas will love this. He have a voice that no one can resist, once he call your name you will be melted immediately... I love the Britain soldier fabric and the cute puppies fabric that my dear friend, Sam gave to me. The combination is not bad rite? Very sorry of the ugly model :p 
BTW, please do not think that the hat is very big. As my headband width is 51cm, and this little Lukas headband width is 50.5 >.< I have added elastic strap inside.

I ♥ Lace | 我 ♥ 蕾絲

我相信很多人都和我一樣很愛蕾絲。我也收集了一些些。之前都用軟紙皮隨便剪出一個線軸的形狀就卷起來,放進櫃子裡。自從我做了給線兒們的布紙板後,我昨晚又手癢了,把模畫在硬紙皮上然後剪了很多張來收我的蕾絲。果然漂亮了很多,又不用花錢買那些美美的卡來收。我的紙皮的素質也是一級棒的。收拾好後整個人心情馬上開心起來 {蕾絲的法力!}
如果你們也一樣煩惱不懂如何要收藏你們的蕾絲,你們可以下載這個pdf圖。直接打印出來,或者沒打印機的話,就用薄薄的紙放在電腦熒幕上透過光畫出來然,貼在紙皮上剪出來就行了。那個小紙皮盒是之前有人送娃娃給我的包裝盒,我慶幸我沒把它丟掉。你也可以放在藤籃裡啊,或自己做布盒。哦,對了,我的蕾絲都是在maymayshop 買的。她有很多美美的蕾絲~

I think many of you are just like me, cannot resist with beautiful lace. I do collect some. Previously I was just using some thin card simply cut out a cardboard and roll my lace on top.Since I have made fabric cardboard for thread, my itchy hand start draw the shape on hard cardboard and I have cut a lot of them to keep my lace. After arrange all my lace, they look so pretty now, and I do not need to spend money to buy the pretty cards from online store. My cardboard quality is very good one. You will feel so satisfy and happy right after you arrange them nicely. {the magic of lace!} 
If you are also having issue of do not know how to keep your lace, you can download this pdf pattern, just print out and cut. or if yo do not have printer, use a think paper put on your monitor screen and trace the outline, stick on your cardboard and cut them out. The cardboard box was the packaging from my friend, she use it to deliver a doll for me, and I am glad that I didn't throw it away. You can also put into those rattan basket, or make your own fabric basket. Ohh, btw, allf my lace were purchased through maymayshop she sell many pretty lace!

Hope you enjoy it. ^ ^

Adult booties (low heel) | 成人室內鞋 (低鞋跟)

Mr.J with the comfy adult booties

為什麼會縫這雙室內鞋是因為我覺得低跟的比較方便Mr.J ,對啦,是縫給他的,之前縫的第一雙手工沒那麼好,又是漏液趕出來的生日禮物,雖然他都穿著,我每次看都覺得我要縫過,縫過!找到了低鞋跟的做法,昨晚上就開工。效果還可以吧?加了厚鞋墊。但是我偷懶啦,里布沒放鋪棉。。。假厲害的我。。。但是自己穿還可以啦。委屈你啦,Mr.J 。我會再努力的~
很喜歡報紙布

Why do I sew low heel adult booties? I this this design is more convenience for Mr. J. Yup, is for him again, the one I sew before the sewing was not so good, and the shoe base too, some more I rush in middle of the night just for that Birthday gift. Although he wear it daily, but when every time I saw he wear, I tell myself I have to sew a pair of new one for him. Finally I found the the low heel pattern, and I start work on it last night. The result is okay, rite? I added the shoe base padding this time. But I am lazy... as I didn't add the batting for the inner lining... :p Not for customer is still acceptable. So sorry Mr. J, I will improve soon ^ ^V I love this newspaper print fabrics so much~

Adult booties with elastic strap | 成人室內鞋附鬆緊帶

因為擔心收到禮物的人穿了尺寸會不合適,結果我加了鬆緊帶,就希望它能夠給主人帶來溫暖 =) 縫好後又拆,又縫真的是要我的命

I added the elastic strap to the adult booties, due to I am afraid the size will not be so well fitted. I hope it will warm the new owner. 
To remove stitches and sew again is always killing me >.<

Adult booties | 成人室內鞋 22.11.10

這雙成人室內鞋是第一雙即將賣出去的作品。是好友要送給人的。好友告知我說這位鞋子的主人比較喜歡樸素的顏色,喜歡格子布。我翻了整個櫃子的布決定了應該用這個墨綠色的格子布 然後在配上素色棉麻 決定了要設計的款式,就馬上開工。還是有點小瑕疵,你們可能看不到.

我的001成人室內鞋希望你能夠溫暖你的主人~

This is my first pair of adult booties that soon to be sending out. My good friend purchase this pair of adult booties for his friend. I was told that this owner like simple plain colors and checked fabric. So, after I dig all the fabrics in my cabinet, I decided to use this dark green checked fabric and match with plain linen. After decided with the design, I start my sewing immediately. There is still little flaws that you unable to see from here :p

My 001adult booties, I hope that you will warm your new owner~

Baby booties giftset | 嬰孩禮品組合 21.11.10

這是個很特別的order,是一位馬來顧客的訂購,特別在他和他的先生都不知道嬰孩的性別,他們要給自己一個驚喜。所以也要求我的布料要男女都合適。另外也謝謝顧客讓我警惕自己,以後接到馬來客戶的訂單配布的時候要小心,要選擇halal的圖案~

This is a special order from my Malay customer. Special as in the couple do not know the sex gender of their baby, they want to surprise themselves. So, the fabrics requested need to be unisex. I also wish to thank my customer that I will always alert myself whenever I received order from Muslim customer, which I will have to select halal fabric pattern.

Baby gift set to Taiwan | 將飛去台灣的嬰孩禮品組合




這一次我用了仿糜皮配搭橙色的格子布,另一面用了在K布莊買的迷彩加上森林動物效果還不錯,但是仿糜皮手縫合的步驟簡直是要命。。。下次用的時候要好好的計劃,計劃。台灣的小老虎,希望你稀飯~

This giftset I use chamois cloth look-a-like fabric with orange checked the other side I use the Camouflage style fabric mixed with animal in the jungle

I quite like the result of my pattern matching. Just the hand stitch chamois cloth is a killing part.Next time I should be more well plan to avoid the hand stitch part for this type of fabric. 

Little Tiger in Taiwan, I hope you will like this present from your lovely aunties in Malaysia (My sister & her friend)

My sewing corner | 我的縫紉小站

My simple tutorial / 我的簡易教學,希望你們看得明白
我的縫紉小站,真的很小,原本想買多一張桌子,但是我住的是一方式公寓,多一張桌子我就更多東西放,桌子的對面是我的窩{床}所以還是打消了這個念頭。剛剛買了新的小櫃來裝我的阿布布。之前都是放在那個橙褐色的箱子,但是很不方便,每次都要翻啊,找啊的。拿了又要再放回去。
終於去買了這個很划算的小櫃,馬幣53.90。在T霸級市場買的,我扛回家有點吃力。
好久都沒裝櫃了,敢敢醬就報銷了一支螺丝刀。然後我又手癢,看到那個門的手把是灰色的就是篤眼篤鼻,
買了罐白漆,噴掉它。花了很多很多時間整理我的阿布布。
上面那隻熊是好友eefee送我的娃娃,我從來都不收娃娃的唯有這只小灰泰迪我們一看到就愛上,
她買了3只,這只小灰泰迪是我要求的生日禮物。
那個大的籃子也是在T霸級市場買的,馬幣5.45美麗吧。。。呵呵呵~然後裡面裝了我的刺繡框,包扣和拉鍊,還有蘑菇送我的AUDREY ^ ^
小籃子裝的是我的線兒們,不敢買多,沒得收,麻煩。旁邊是我做的杯子蛋糕針插。
上層是格子布,點點布,動物系列
第二層是花布,和普通給我配圖案的棉布
第三層是棉麻,防滑布還有包裝用的布。{旁邊是我縫壞了的小鞋鞋}
下層的白盒是裝比較大片的碎布。然後餅乾盒就裝了小碎布。旁邊是蕾絲姐妹~

我的縫紉機,重量不輕,桌子有點陷下去,所以我都推去一旁。醬也好,我才可以放我的筆電。
左邊是我的書+手作書,有好友麗香幫我買到的桌燈,不然我很快會失明。然後還有Mr.J送給我的小雲。
ikea買的藤籃裝了我的彈性塑膠,一點紙型,書啊。
旁邊是我的最常用的工具箱。然後是筆盒。
牆上放了些我喜歡的照片,明信片。eefee畫的插圖。
桌下的白盒是工具。然後橙褐色的箱子上層是素色棉麻。下層是還沒整理的cotton flannel。下面還有兩個工具箱沒整理好。。。放著先 XP。。。

還沒買到和我心意的vintage椅子,唯有用上個屋主留下來的椅子。用棉麻縫了個套子,那個坐垫是在daiso買的布的來源



My sewing corner, it is very small, I suppose to purchase another table, but due to I am staying at a studio apartment, and I will put more things if I have extra table. And opposite the table is my bed… at the end, I decided not to buy. I just purchase a small cabinet for my fabrics, before that I kept my fabrics in the orange box it is not convenience at all. Every time I will have to dig and find my fabric.

Finally I got this reasonable cabinet at RM53.90 at T Hypermarket. It is quite heavy when I carry it back, It has been ages that I didn’t fix any cabinet. And I did spoil a screwdriver :p and my itchy hand cannot stand with the grey handle, I bought a white spray can and spray on it.
I spent a lot of time to fold all the fabrics.
The teddy bear on top was from my best friend – eefee. It was fall on the first sight when we saw the teddy bear. She bought total of 3, and that was my birthday present that I request from her.

The big basket was from T hypermarket, RM5.45, not bad, rite? My embroidery frame and cover buttons and zippers are inside the basket. And pretty Audrey from Tako.

I kept my threads in the small basket that I bought from daiso. Next to it is the cupcake pin cushion that I made.

1st layer – checked fabric, polka dots and animal series
2nd layer – floral prints and other cotton for matching.
3rd layer – linen, anti slipped fabric & fabric for packaging. My error sewing booties and ex booties are beside it.
Lower layer – the white box is for fabric scrap in large size, and the biscuit can was filled with plenty of little fabric scraps. And my lace collection.

My sewing machine is quite heavy, so I push it to aside and I can put my laptop beside. On the left you can see my books + craft books. The table lamp that Leesiang bought for me, or else I will be blind very soon. And the Arale that Mr.J bought for me.
The ikea basket was filled with elastic rubber, my pattern and notes.
Beside it is the tool box that I frequently use, any pencil box.
I hang some photos, postcards that I like and eefee’s illustration.
The white box under the table is my tools box, and the upper orange box is with my linen fabric, and underneath are cotton flannel that I am yet to tidy. And another two tools box that yet to tidy up XP

I am yet to get a vintage chair that I love, so I still using the stool from ex tenant, I sew a seat cushion case for it.The seat cushion was purchase from daiso. Fabric from here

Full Lined zipper pouch | 化妝包

第一次很專注的做化妝包,真的不容易。其實我收了幾個我比較看得明白的網上教學,然後我敢敢找不到我的拉鍊腳。。。因為我以為那個拉鍊腳和我媽那架古董針車的是一樣的。。。笨到。。。後來蘋果媽媽和JOAN告訴我後,我馬上開工~

有縫錯啦,然後很不甘願的拆線咯。。。縫好後真的很開心,很滿足。很喜歡這塊報紙布。我就是醬容易滿足,其實是不敢奢求,因為我每次都要花上好多時間才能夠了解那些教學。。。哈哈~

蘋果媽媽,EMMA,我終於成功交上我的功課了,好開心啊~雖然是遲了,我會再接再厲,試試做其他的功課。


This is my first full lined zipper pouch. I have collected so many related zipper pouch tutorial, but I was so afraid to try, as I did sew pouch before but those are with no lined. And I couldn't find my zipper foot, due to I didn't know my zipper foot look totally different from my mum's antique sewing machine :p Thanks to applemama and joan that told me where I can find my zipper foot. I start my sewing once I found it.

I did make mistake when I sew, but I removed the wrong stitches and put more attention on it. Well, I am really proud of myself once I completed the pouch. Love this newspaper print fabric.Very satisfy, yar I am so easy to satisfy, but actually I dare not to think further, as I always spent a lot of time to understand a tutorial >_<

applemama & emma, I have finally submitted my homework :p I am so happy, okay okay, I know I am late, but I will continue my learning skill and try on other homework.



I was away to KL for few days and I went to visit my craft friends in PIPIT WONDERFUL MARKET. Met so many craft friends there and have great time with them. Here are the fabrics that I received from my craft friends, the red on the left were purchase from beanipet. I love the fabrics so much, thanks to all my craft friends. I also received many other sewing material from them... too lazy to snap photo.

我去了雞籠坡好幾天。特地去了PIPIT WONDERFUL MARKET,見到很多手作朋友,也和他們有很開心的時間。這些布都是手作朋友送給我的,左邊的布是我和beanipet買的。很喜歡這些布哦~還有收到很多手作材料,來不及拍照片,謝謝大家的禮物~
