It's just a little crush...

It's just a little crush 

Not like I faint every time we touch

It's just some little thing 

Not like everything I do depends on you

Sha-la-la-la, sha-la-la-la

It's raising my adrenaline

You're banging on a heart of tin

Please don't make too much of it baby

You say the word "forevermore"

That's not what I'm looking for

All I can commit to is "maybe"

after along time

 

looking at those flowers really inspiring

esp when you get stuck with your design

I think GREEN is actually a neutral color

isn't it?

I guess that's all

Back to Quilt ~ for a baby boy

It's done! 

A friend of mine was expecting a baby boy and  few months ago she asked me to make a tote bag for her using Indian cotton fabrics. 

I've been busy making passport wallets for the past few months and enjoyed it tremendously. 

And here's what I came up with

peacock blue and dark grey combo

 The bag has a drawstring closure. I was thinking of using zippers but as diaper bags drawstring seems to be more versatile since you can fit in more stuff without worrying about the zippers. 

With the bag I made a matching mini quilt. 

it's 30" x 30" which is perfect for new born.

It's meant for spring/summer weather so I used flannel batting. It turned out very soft.

one more shot

I've been using flannel batting for few quilts that I made and I like it, esp for my kind of weather which is quite humid during the summer.

It's a perfect covering in AC room during the summer months ^v^ .

If you need the fabric, you can visit my shop or contact me in my FACEBOOK .

I'd be glad you hear from you.

Until then...

B for Boy or Blue

This is another late post. 

I made this quilt last  September for my MIL's friend. She wanted something BLUE for her grandson. And you know there are a whole lot of shades of blues.

 See what I mean???

She simply said "I want something blue for my Grandson, he's 13 years old" . hmmm...As usual, deciding the block and pattern arrangements is the most difficult part for me. I made few fabric selections and few test blocks, laid them on the floor, clicking endless pictures. Picking another set of blues, cutting and repeating until I get that "AHA" feeling.

I saved you from viewing my "WIP" photos, and here what I came up with:

I wanted something simple that has a BLUE look about it. Using a square in square block, I put owl prints in the middle and blue and yellows oval dotted prints too. 

 of course a blue dots for the back! Lucky I found this still in stock in my fave fabric shop!

and as usual, decorative quilting ^^

It was a rush work, since she's leaving for the US and will take the quilt with her. I sent her just few days before she left, and she was very thrilled and placed another order, this time it's PINK. Now, that the color that I love ^_^. 

Until then,

Happy Sewing
