Pdf Sewing Pattern Sale - Holi Special!

Hello,

Happy Holi to my Indian friends! And if you plan to sew something this long weekends, I am currently running a HOLI special for All the Pdf Sewing Pattern in my shop! Grab one and start sewing for your loved ones! Ah the coupon code is HOLIHAI.  The sale will be valid through Monday! 


You also can find the link on the right panel of the blog. And if you have any question, you can always email me

In the meantime, I almost finish with my pending orders. Well, February indeed was a busy month for me. I thank God for that.


I made a few family passport holders as custom orders from my Etsy Shop.


I am also happy that I finished off a couple of prints. Those who know me, I hoarded quite a lot of  fabrics whenever I travel abroad with the plan to make wallets. Well, the plan is still on, but the sewing has been very slow lately. 


This travel print is the new print and I will be listing it in the shop shortly. Sewing the same pattern using different print really made me so happy. Because I get to use up my stash! Ha! 

Now, I have this log cabin bag to complete. I'm a little bit behind the schedule this time. I always love the patchwork making process, but when it comes to quilting it, I always think like 100 times even for the smallest project. After perusing pinterest, youtube and blogs and asking opinions from my expert friends, I finally decided to do the echo quilting!..well, more about it in the next post. Now, I better finish the bag! 

Here is the sneak peek


Stay tuned for the bag photo in the next post!

Until then,

Happy Sewing





Fishy Trifold Wallet

Hello,


My latest finish!! Just fresh out of the sewing machine. I love this fish print fabric I got from Indonesia last year (or was it 2 years ago?).  

Fishy fish Women's Wallet

The Japanese linen is really a dream to work with. They simply look beautiful. The pink and blue fishes among the monochrome one made this fabric more attractive. 


as if to say, "It's alright to be different"! 
Yes just be yourself!!


I decided to go with the blue because it matched perfectly with the blue handloom ikat!! 
You can even carry your phone or passport using this wallet. 
I was undecided with the binding then I decided to use the same fish fabric. You know what? I made the bias binding from 10" square and it was more than enough to bind one wallet!! I am so excited!  Because I often think that I need at least a fat quarter! 




The wallet is now available in ETSY SHOP. I still have a bit of the fabric, if you love fish or fishing and would like to make a passport holder instead, I can do that too!

And if you want to try to make the wallet, you can find the pattern at the right panel of this blog or you can get it  in ETSY or CRAFTSY
Go and make special mother's day gift for your Mom this year!

Thank you for stopping by. 

Until then,
Happy Sewing

Linky Party:

Smaller passport holder with card wallet is back in the shop

Hello,

It's already Saturday. I hope you had a great week.  My sons started the new session with excitement. The elder one was happy because there was not so much of shuffling, which mean he has the same classmates as when he was in grade 7. The younger was a bit upset, because his besties - 5 of them- are all in a different section. But my younger son is a friendly one, so I don't worry.

Meanwhile, now my custom order is back on track. I managed to finished a couple of overdue orders and sent them out.

Card Wallet Organizer & Phone Sleeve

Meanwhile, I decided to put this smaller passport card holder back in the shop. I got several orders for the same style and will make a couple for stock.

Cute Black Cat Passport Holder
This wallet can hold up to 2 passport. The slot can also hold boarding passes since I made the pocket quite deep. 

Details of the passport wallet interior

It has 6 card slots, with one long zipper pocket and 2 slip pockets. Pen loop and swivel hook are also added. 

Perfect Size Passport Cover  to fit inside your Purse

And of course I love my new metal label, don't you?

Handsewn binding 

I always finished the wallet binding by hand. I love the neat finish of hand sewing. It gives the look of "handmade". 

And most of customers really love it. For one wallet normally I can finish the binding within 30 minutes. 

So, what are you working on next week? I'll be working on another family passport holder, another card wallet organizer orders  and also more phone sleeve orders. 

Until then,

Happy Sewing




{ NEW PATTERN } - CARD WALLET ORGANIZER & TESTER PHOTOS


Yay! Finally now the pattern is LIVE on Craftsy, Etsy and Chezvies. It will be on SALE until I come back from my trip to Japan by End of January.

The pattern features :
12 or 16 cards slots, 2 flap styles included in the pattern templates, 2 zipper pockets and 2 slip pockets, clear step by step instructions with graphics and photos. 

In my previous post I mentioned about the fabulous tester result by my generous facebook friends. Now you will get to see them and what they think about the pattern. Let's Start! 

Maria of Miacreates  was the first one to post and I love how neat her work is. It's simply perfect. You will love all her shabby chic style creations. Here's her comments about the pattern : Great pattern and love the inside concealed zipper




 Sudha Sekhar from Madras Motifs always come up with something quirky and unique. And sure enough she came up with this cute Elephant print CWO.An elephant wallet with bright contrast card slots inside and she said "All in all its a very simple, straightforward pattern"

 

Novi is my bestie from college. She converted into the world of sewing few years ago and I love her one-of-a-kind style. Whatever she made, she never made them twice. She came up with this cute Japanese Linen wallet. Using different print for flap really give a unique result.


My BFF Agnes tested the first draft and she's one of my "brainstorming" buddies. She tried the triangle flap and I love how neat it is. This is what she said about the pattern "This CWO pattern is very clear and easy to follow, especially the pictures, they are very helpful". Her hubby thought she bought it! Ha, I guess it's high time to take your sewing hobby to a different level ;)


And here's Susan of SKH51 Teal and Grey Wallet. I really love her fabric choice. This is what she said about the pattern "It's a really super pattern!" Susan's work is alway fantastic. You can follow her works in her instagram and I am sure you will love it too!!


Here's my friend, Hernik of Jemariku from Kuala Lumpur who loves anything shabby chic. I always love her work and how neat it is. Red is another fave color of mine. It's my "cheer-me-up" color. I love how she added a fancy leather strap there. She said she loved the pattern, because she can fit in her phone too!  


Alka of Sew Fab Stories really live up to her brand name. Whatever she does, it's fabulous. I love how the green binding make the orange pop. And look at how neat her work is. She said "Wonderful pattern with clear instructions" 


Sudesh Jangra of Stitch A Memory came up with this bright & beautiful red wallet. She just released her pattern too, so make sure to check out her Instagram to get a look at her popular pattern. 


Poonam of Quiltsiop is another artist that I admire. Her works show how much love and dedication she put into each one of them.  Don't you love this modern look wallet? Perfect binding too. She said "It was my first pattern testing and that's a wallet. I enjoyed making it. Instructions, measurements were clear to understand and follow". 


Prabha Mathew of Quiltaholics did another pretty wallet in spite of her busy schedule. She said  this is the first time she made concealed zipper and she was happy to be able to do it in one go. And it's pretty neat zipper!!  


I'm super happy everyone finds the wallet is easy to do and it's a fast project to sew. Perfect gift to make for your friends and family.

Coming Soon ~ Card Wallet Organizer Pattern

I'm so excited to announce that my second PdF Pattern is coming  real soon. Right now it's being tested by my fabulous Facebook Friends (I love facebook for that!!) 

The tester photos have been coming out really fabulous!! I love how everyone is using different kind of fabrics and each one is so fantastically pretty. (sneak peek photos soon!!)

I have made few wallets from this upcoming pattern few months ago (here and here)
 

Pattern making is a learning process for me. Even if I wrote several tutorials before, but selling pattern is totally different. There is a certain degree of  responsibility that I feel. Maybe it's just me, but I want those who buy my pattern will feel "yes, it's worth it".  From my First Pattern I learned  how to convey what's in my head  with less confusing sewing terms or less confusing photo angles. I tried my best to use a simple English that can be understood by non English speaker. 
 



This time around, I learned to make graphics (instead of photos) to use in the instructions and also added alternative designs (yay!!)



I've been trying out the pattern using different kind of interfacings too, I will elaborate more in my next blog post. 

I'm so excited about this pattern! I'm sure you will love it. 
Sign up for updates in the top right corner of this blog and get the first  updates of the release.

Until then,

Happy Sewing
