samsung note sleeve, wip

here's another sneak peek of one of the wips.  i don't have a name for it yet.

i took this photo with my mobile phone.
this one has a vintage look.

i used one of my favourite fabrics for the front and back panels.  i love both traditional and stylised prints.  the lovely colours of the prints on those cotton fabrics just put smiles on your face :)

for the units that are available for sale, pls visit The Kopai Boutique.

important note:  the stitching and reinforcement of the leather slot on the front panel is hidden under the lining.  this ensures that the surface of the lining that touches the phone has smooth surface and will not scratch the phone.


cheers,

mini patchwork quilt

i just love fabrics.  i find it difficult to throw them away even when they are smaller than the size of my palm.

i whipped these up in less than 15 minutes.  i used the flip and sew technique and just stitch them up randomly.  no batting and i'm not bothered about their sizes either (that's why it was just 15 minutes).  they came in handy....... as a mug rug......a glass coaster.  they make superb mouse pads too.

i cut them into strips of at least 3cm wide (lengths varied)
the mug rug and the coaster are very much needed,
coz of this glass table top. 

love my new mouse pad :)

cheers,
YunY

something fun....something different

last month, i made a zorro mask for my husband.  i made it from scratch.  i googled but i did not have much luck this time and i was running out of time.  with alya's hanbok...i had a few months' notice.  with this zorro mask...i had only a few hours.  and my hubby wanted to wear this mask over his glasses...not underneath.

so, without any reference on any possible how-tos....i took his pair of glasses and used it as my template. and armed with my loyal pfaff sewing machine...i began working on the first prototype.  i was working as fast as i could.  i couldn't even stop to take photos of the work in progress or even the finished product.  this photo below was from his friend.....and the best or maybe the worst part was...the mask went missing right after he took it off !

a pretty good job with the mask.
don't you think so sayang?
cheers,
YunY
