Celebrating 10K Subs

Hello, 

I want to share with you the happy news today that my YouTube channel has gained 10K subscribers! I can't thank you enough for your support and encouragement through the years. At the beginning of this year, I was asked what is my resolution, I said I just wanted to grow my YouTube channel and reach 10K subscribers. I want to be able to share more tutorials, tips, and tricks on sewing and quilting. It was not an easy journey especially when you work alone from ideation, recording to editing, and finally uploading the videos. But this is something I really enjoy doing and I hope to continue doing.

Facebook or Not

Ok, finally it happened to my Facebook account. After 14 years, yesterday Facebook suddenly locked me out. I was asked to do security check and I did. The next minute, I got notification like the above picture. 

I tried contacting them on Twitter (which usually there is real people behind it) but no news till now. I tried many other things that the people suggested on YouTube but nada! 

Some friends wonder if it was hacked. And then I saw this on Twitter 

what?! Even they are hacked. Well, what can you expect. I read on many forums, many people who get the same case like this, it's a gone case. You can either create a new one or just leave it. 

Now, I use Facebook mainly for the groups. The quilter groups, bag maker groups, my pattern group, etc. Occasionally I promoted my shop in the seller groups, not that Facebook drive many traffics to my shop, unless I pay for Facebook ads. 

For now I have new Facebook account, because I'm testing Namrata's new pattern and I have to be on the group to get an update. As for my Facebook Business Page, I don't have access on it now and I don't know whether they are going to shut it down or not.

My Facebook is back but I could not comment or post , except post from Instagram 

Thank you for reading this & keep in touch! 

Have a nice day!

Pre-cut Indian Cotton Fabrics

Hello again,

I am still destashing fabrics and make them into fun and unique fat quarter bundles. I cut quite a lot but have not got time to create all. I got a few bundles which are ready to list. 

Indian fabrics have such an interesting prints and unimaginable range of colors, that sometimes you don't need other colors or prints to compliment them.

Pink Purple Fat Quarter Bundle 

Although nowadays, many novelty prints also make an appearance in Indian block print fabric, I personally still prefer the classic timeless prints. 

Like this Indigo Fabric. 

Indigo Block Print Cotton 

Or these lavender pink fat quarter bundle. This kind of prints (with paisley design) usually will always be available. In India, during the summer month, people prefer white of or off-white based cotton fabric. 

Lavender Pink Paisley & Flower Prints

I am making a few pouches and passport sleeve from some of these pre-cut fabrics. They are just super fun and fast! 

Here is one of them. Isn't that cool? It's totally one of a kind!!

Aqua Green Passport Cover

Come to think of it, there are just so many things you can make from these pre-cut fabrics. I love buying pre-cuts whenever I go. With pre-cut fabrics, you can have more time to sew rather than to choose fabric combination, right? 

So, what are you making this week? 

Thank you for stopping by,

Until then,

small notes: 

I feel I bit off more than I could chew lately. For that, I will discontinue the newsletter. As much as I love to share news, tutorials, and tips with you all, I feel sharing on my blog and occasionally in my Facebook Group will give me more freedom to write extensively. I will do my best to share more tips on small business marketing and sewing ideas with you all.
