Handmade Happiness #3 - Batching or Multitasking?

Hello and welcome to Handmade Happiness!

Thank you for linking up in my first link up last week. So lovely to see your creations.

Last week I didn't complete much - sewing wise. However I did a couple of batching work! Yay!

I posted in my Instagram Story a few days ago whether you prefer Batching or Multitasking. Surprisingly the result shown 50% for each. As a woman and a mom, I think we are born multitasker. However when it comes to doing your home-based business, I read that batching is more appropriate. Batching is doing one task at a certain time and only concentrate on the work at hand, while multitasking is keep switching between two or 3 works at a time. Read the complete article HERE.

Passport Covers

For me, while sewing, I keep checking my phone for email or messages and sometimes get caught up in the conversations while my machine is on. Or I suddenly want to post updates in my Instagram and ended up scrolling endlessly. It is very distracting.

A gift for a friend -Owl Wallet

Since I read the article, I tried to practice it. For someone who always multitasking all the time, it is tough job! But I did it. I completed many wallets, prepping a couple of works that  need to be done, getting all the winter clothes sort out. I also took photos for my shops, finished the owl wallet above for Namrata which is long due!! Thanks for your patience ^__^. I'm still working out my schedule. I hope I will be more organized in the future.

Now, let's see our MVP (most visited post) last week's post:

Sowmya from Prime Needlers on Facebook made this pretty green and blue kaleidoscope quilt. A delightful baby quilt. She's also currently working on her quilt for the First India Quilt Festival next January 2019.

Neepa made this oh so pretty dress. All little girls love pretty dresses, especially if it's pink, right? Check out her pretty dresses on her Facebook Page A quaint stitch.

Little Girl Kaftan

This is what I completed last week. I love the simple design and the easy pattern. The yellow trimming is a surprise addition. I was thinking of using solid white but then I saw this yellow fabric peeking out from my cupboard.

Here's the detail of the sleeve

A busy month

Well, November is almost ended and I haven't written a single blog post. The last 2 months was quite a busy one for me. I'm trying to get my ETSY SHOP up and running again and starts taking custom orders. And also try my best to maintain my Facebook Page.

So, finally I started doing children umm..little girls dresses again and this time I put up a listing in my Etsy shop after a lot of encouragement from my dear friends Agnes and mbak Hany. All this time I'm making dresses for friends and relatives and I guess it's high time I take it a little further ^_^.

For the time being I'm offering a custom order for DIRNDLE dress. These ones I've made for Essy's daughter in Austria.

Second one is this birthday party dress. This one in the picture is my friend's cute daughter. I made the dress for her 1st birthday ^_^.

and of course this most versatile dress, peasant dress. Who doesn't love this dress. It's the most comfortable dress/top.

and also now I'm opening my new Etsy shop where I share my passion for fabrics. Do come and visit Chezvies' Supplies. I picked up fabric from everywhere I go, so you might get an interesting fabrics there which is perfect for your project. Here's the sneak peek of the shop :)

The Little Dresses

I've been busy making few dresses last week. These are for my DH's cousins DD. She's a chubby cute 2 years old (well, almost). It was lots of fun making this little dresses. I still have few more to make but that can wait until I come back from the holidays...I'm too excited to sew now that I have 3 suitcases to pack (worst part of going for a holiday)

Happy Sewing -__*
