Suzuko Koseki Love coaster project by PINK PENGUIN

我在網上看到了我很喜歡的手作達人 - Ayumi舉辦了這個網上活動,18 個人一起縫製WE LOVE SUZUKO KOSEKI   4.5" x 4.5"的杯墊。我臉皮厚厚電郵給他,她很快的回复我的電郵,然後我負責縫制英文字母 - E。我托了好久才縫好。。。呵呵~拖到剛好EMMA出一月份的手作活動是縫杯墊,一舉兩得啊!我縫了教堂之窗加上Suzuko Koseki 的布,如果有他的布也可以加進去。誰知道我真的有Suzuko Koseki的布!!!好友去年去帶團去日本問我要什麼手信,我說我要碎布。他真的去找給我。很感動這位阿兄那麼偉大帶團的時候還要去找布碎給我。然後誤打誤撞的給我在Ayumi的網站中看到有一片布和我家的一樣,回家對照後,哇!果然一樣!我命中註定是要參加這個縫杯墊活動的。呵呵呵~

我用了 素色棉麻 加上 Suzuko Koseki 的布料 再加上不織布縫了這個杯墊。

你們可以到這裡看看其他人的杯墊哦~ http://www.flickr.com/groups/suzukokoseki/


I join this project that organised by Ayumi aka Pink Penguin -http://ayumills.blogspot.com/2010/11/suzuko-koseki-love.html

It was fun that everyone have to sew a coaster in 4.5" x 4.5" with assigned alphabet. and using Suzuko Koseki fabric is  optional. It was so coincident that my friend went to Japan last year and he bought some fabric scrap for me, when I look into her post, I saw one of the fabric look so familiar like what my friend gave me, and i went home and check on the fabric, OMG! I never know that I also have Suzuko Koseki fabric (if I never check Pink Penguin website :p)  hahahaha~

I use cathedral window as my pattern for the coaster, and adding Suzuko Koseki fabric in the middle and with my felt E.

WE LOVE SUZUKO KOSEKI

There are 18 people take part in this project, I have sent out mine to Japan today, so looking forward Ayumi to join them together ^ ^ You can view the project photos here - http://www.flickr.com/groups/suzukokoseki/
