morning post

Back to work (and back to bed) as my cutting n stitching mostly done on bed …anyway I like to set myself deadlines. This keeps me busy for a couple of hours… and my creativity starts to wonder…. But I am surprised that I’m not in the mood for much felting today, so I do some networking instead …yesterday there’s an instant message from my dearest buddy…deeb n fizza. They requested for a bit of copywriting for blog post….mmmmm….(will do, will do will do) but I don’t have time to worry about it right now, because I have several bigger projects in the works that I must finish before I lose my momentum....sabar ye cik kak...let me do the morning goleks first

I am working on my latest felt food pattern. This pattern will feature 4 different themed felt food treats ; banana cake, blueberry cake, orange cake and green tea cake…please feel free to browse.. Its a real learning curve but now I'm itching to get making more and more... Craft that looks like food is like window shopping and not buying anything.

Always so much to share and catch up on!

...almost for this week….for the rest of yesterday I’m looking for a free program on watermark images….well, most of these keychain felt designs are made using my own original patterns. If you like what you see - be polite and don't use any images without asking - be inspired but there's no need to copy when you can make your own from one of the available craft kits and tutorials. My patterns and tutorials are for personal use only and not to be used commercially or I will be forced to curse you with a candies allergy. Hahahaha…the worst curse ever….

I am working on my latest felt food pattern .Those are all fantastic! They’re just adorable..I totally vote for the biscuits n chocolates tutorial! … they were so fun to make...i blogged about beginning this project…..i might steal AQIL's study time just for couple of hours for this trial n error… And really like how this one turned out…but first let me hit the free watermark online…absolutely free…yeeeehaaaa
My fingers were itching to get started because of all the yummy goodies that were in the pack…...

I don't understand it at all!

What’s not to love about crafting with felt....

It’s fun, cheap, easy to work with . And it can be made into anything from teeny house pillows to lollipops. Get ready to be inspired with these crafts....i made the keychain as my first project ....

experimenting art n cratf

For another, I have never actually worked with felt before. Ever.

On the other hand, I did manage to learn a few valuable things about working with the fabric such as the fact that the blunt sort of cross-stitch NEEDLES are actually a terrible, terrible tool to punch through multiple layers of felt with...instead using the smallest needle there n then i need my magnifying glass to help me afterall ..

latest hobby

I spent most of my time recently experimenting with this craft. For one thing, I am not terribly good with needlework, and by not terribly good with I mean a complete disaster at. Seriously, I can barely manage to sew a row of backstitch without having it come out horrendously crooked. I’ll never figure out.
