one of my 2015 resolution

is to put a good use of my scraps. 

This little pouch is as a kick start project.  I used my postage stamp block to make this

everyone asked me about the pink sewing machine ^_*

it's too cute, isn't it?

I got it when I was looking for super heroes figures for my sons and I know I should buy it ^^

I simply love using decorative stitch for quilting

That cute button I got last year from Indonesia

I just could not resist anything cute

This pouch has gone to one girl, who visited me last week

she just could not let it go once she saw it. She said she's going to put her clips in it ^^

if you want one, I list this in my ETSY shop too as custom order

I have {more than} enough scraps to make this pouch ^^

Until then

Happy Sewing

Patchwork Bag and more

Today I was cleaning my craft boxes where I keep my fabric etc. I don’t have craft room as yet, so everything is kept in boxes. I found one unfinished project. I did the mirror embroidery few months ago and I wanted to make a pouch out of it. The fabric is handwoven Indian cotton. I used one cheery yellow fabric left over from one yellow dress I made. And I’m happy with the result.



One more thing I started using is flannel. I have this flannel lying around, left over from the time when I used to make baby wrap for my younger son. It turns out quite a good substitute for batting. Since batting is not available here where I live, I usually used thin foam instead. But you know for certain projects foam is just out of the question. So I was experimenting with flannel, and it’s  very GREAT. I got the softness and sturdiness at the same time.
I used the flannel for the patchwork bag too. I use cotton khadi for the base, which is quite thick and sturdy. I add cute ribbon to give more accent…what do you think?



Yes, this is my second boxy pouch. I simply love making it. It’s perfect to hold your jewelry, watch, brooches, coins even your basic make up i.e compact powder & lipstick….yay to that!


Thanks for stopping by…^_^

Pink Flowers Zip Pouches

Today I took out this pink flower fabric and a matching darkish pink (almost burgundy) south Indian cotton fabric. It makes a nice combination. The South Indian cotton fabric is quite sturdy to make pouches, coasters, etc. Plus it has a bright & deep colors.
