mini bubble skirt

Morning.... how was your weekend? This weekend was amazing for a few of reasons: the sun was shining, the wet clothes can be dry quickly..lots of time was spent with loved ones...a beautiful and clean home... crafting and crafting still in progress...and here are some photos to highlight what I've done this weekend..my bubble skirt for my dear niece! Ngee....I can't wait to see Abigail wears this skirt..

 smile face...=) my first bubble skirt

 the reason why it becomes so bubbly...elastic band!

 ermmhh...reversible skirt? Okay gak tue...

 pleated and pleated...

 I'm not so sure the actual size of my niece's waist.so i sewed elastic band at the back of the skirt...

Happy weekend,everyone!

run-jessie-run

Sure it comes to mind how you want to lose weight : either Jogging or Diet..well for me, I'm going to choose both! So my task begin today...

 

How many feet are in a kilometer? 

There are 3,280.84 feet in 1 kilometer

 

2020 ft is equal to how many kilometer?

2020 / 3280.84 = 0.62 km

 

2020 was actually total steps I counted for one round of the tasik. where I assume my one step is equal to one feet.

 

Where did you run today?

Taman Tasik Shah Alam Seksyen 7

How many round did u do today?

3 rounds!!

 

So, how far did u run today?

3 x 0.6km =1.86km.

 

MY 2012 RUN PLEDGE : 100KM

WEEK 1: 1.86KM

Another 98.14km to go..ohh gosshh!! can i make it?

day curtain for my H-A-L-L

Within 2hrs, I completed my day curtain. I used quite cheap but beautiful lace fabric where you can get it at NAGOYA for RM2.80/m. Furthermore, the lace design is something that I could considered as my ideal combination for my dear curtains. hehehe..Enough said...please have a look!

 I like it very much!

 I like it even more!

 Very happy with the outcome! happy sewing everyone!

My H-A-L-L curtains

This has become my curtains for almost 5months. Kesiankn? Especially dengan penyepit baju kayu tue. Kena pulak pakai masking tape konon2nya nk bg 'curtain tue KUKUH pertahanannya.Sadis betul...huhuhu...but anyway...thanks a lot my dear cotton fabric! Bought them at Penang few years back. RM2/mtr. Jasamu sgtlah dikenang!

Ever heard about this name? Mestilah kn..glemer tue... Once in a while I will go there..selalunya x membeli pn... harga tersangat canntiiikkkkk... tgk kain pn dh tau...rasa diri ni x mampu nk beli kain chantik chantik itu.. melainkan kalau ada sale...SALE BANJIR ke...SALE JATUH MENJUNAM ker... SALE GILA-GILA ke..baru ler mampu untuk membeli...menang membeli menang memakailer katakan...heheh.

Oklaaa...back to my curtain story.... me n hubby dgn jayanya membeli kain di Jakel dgn harga yg sgt berpatutan...kain pn mmg jenis lawa..x tau kenapa melampau sgt harga yg diturunkan...kain ni pilihan hubby sbenarnyer..dia yg terperasan kain tu dulu... when he showed it to me, then only I realized it was a gorgeous fabric...nampak mahal tp dull cktlaa...kaler biru-grey-brown... adeh..bertambah biru lg ler hall ktrg ni.. Refer bwh yer few photos taken by him...

kain langsir RM5 semeter.. harga asal RM18++... percaya tak? Beli 25M for all panels. Bykkan?

my dear tolong buat tanda...hehehe....thank you,my dear!

Adegan tarik-tarik.....sebab kain gorgeous sgt, terpaksalah tarik salah satu benang dr kain tue utk buat garisan..boleh nampak kan ada line kt situ?

bila dah ada line, barulah process memotong kain bermula...puas hati giler biler dapat menggunting straight line. Agaknyer kalau ada ujian gunting garis lurus, saya yg menang kot...

kain yg sudah siap dibahagi2kan ikut area... hall sliding doors 3x3m. Master Bedroom 3x3m. 2nd bedroom 3x2.5m. 3rd room...??? balance dr 25m kain tue..hahha..actually tak tau lg nk design mcm mana utk 3rd room.

Seronok sbb boleh guna serger machine yg bru dibeli....mmg berbaloi...thx Sol for selling this machine to me..hopefully Sol x menyesal tau.heheheh

Sewing the bias tape...niepn beli kt Jakel... std harga rasanyer..RM0.50 per meter.Ke tempat lain lg murah?

Ermmh...I think it only took 3-4 hrs to complete sewing this sliding door curtains. exclude all wajib time -makan,minum,taking nap, termenung,..blablabla..Sedar2 jer dah insertkan hook kt curtain tue..

Tadaa......my new sliding door curtain!I am indeed very satisfied with what I've sewn. Horray! Next entry, I'm going to continue with the making of day curtain pulak...kain x beli lg..tp dh terbayang dh nk pky kain jenis apa..definitely in white/cream colour. Happy sewing!
