mini cathedral window quilt

Dear YOU...

Sorry for ignoring you for the past few month. My never ending work at office keeps me away from you. The only thing that I could come up is this cathedral window quilt. I did it last weekend-Sunday. It still in progress. Another type of quilt. Took few hours to complete it.

Ermmhh...my post is too short...sorry guys!

my mostly blue quilt

Erkk..it looks so gloomy in here...hehehe...anyway, let start with introduction 1st..about 'what should i with the fabric?' well..my original idea was to make shorts or boxers.. but then I realized this lovely 100% cotton is suitable for quilt too. So, my second idea was much more exciting to do than the short. So, here you go.. my 2nd baby quilt. I can say that 40% goes to sewing machine..and another 60% goes to hand stitching. That is why this project came a bit late from my schedule. And I hope that the owner of this quilt will like it too. Well..obviously I wish her mum will like it 1st, then only she will give it to her baby girl .It's for you, my dear niece..Roselle Usun!

i want this quilt to have pillow look design. That is why you can see a lot of face hand stitching on it. And it looks puffy too!

I bought all these fabrics from Nagoya except for the gorgeous blue-dotted one. Bought that one from Lian-Lilstitchy!

duration for me to complete this hand-stitching? Almost a month(lazy+no mood+ itchy-finger due to needles).Penat wei! At one point I said to myself, just gave up this hand-stitching-change to machine! use sewing machine! It's easier! but then..ermmhh..i guess my passion for hand stitching are still there..i continued and luckily for me... it's finally done!

there you go another 'renyah' work...wait till u see them completely.

hahah..my another flower creation. glad that it turn out the way i want it to be!

Happy Sewing,everyone!

tulip hearted quilt

At last....my first ever quilt completed! Let the pictures + few notes speak for itself...

saja tunjuk muka chubby..hahha...almost 60% completed.

with backing but without binding yet.

add some tiny touch at the back of the quilt. I put my friend's daughter name,Eidil..so that she will knows that this quilt was made especially for her.

tadaa!!!

another tadaa!!

I'm happy with what i did. Though the original design was completely different, I'm still satisfied with it. Hope there will be more quilt from me soon.

to the finale of tulip hearted quilt

My first quilt is going to be completed soon. I managed to buy the fibre last Wednesday at Sect 9 Shah Alam. Wait till I post my ‘new-last’ entry for this tulip hearted quilt this coming Monday. A lot of changes I’ve done so far for this baby quilt. Well, no one is going to see the original design, right? What they can only see is the finished product and I am quite satisfied with this coming finished product. If that looks good, that’s all that matters! No more 24 or 17 tulips...but 9 pieces only...so sad!..hahaha..till my fingers meeting this keyboard again.challo!

tulip hearted quilt-part III

I just bought these beautiful and cheap fabric last weekend at Kamdar,MV. So, no english cotton from Romantika for this quilt. Maybe for new project I'll try to use it.

Basic idea on how i will 'susun' this tulips. I like the bright color of the fuschia one. Ermmhh sorry for the Bahasa Melayu word. Erk..what is 'susun' in English ya? Lupa daa...hahaha...

waa....a lot of works to do lor...but still i love to do it!

tadaa.....my first finished pattern. but still I have 17 pieces more to go. gud luck to me!

tulip hearted quilt-part I

I am so excited for this project. My 1st attempt to do quilt. never done one before. i might not have all the quilt tools..like cutter...board? or anything...but I'll try to make this one happen. This one is for my best friend,Norli for her new born baby ,Eidil Khadijah. I hope they will like it!

This is the pattern that i'm using for this project. Got it from free pattern

It looks simple but believe me,it is not easy (I mean..for beginner like me). This design was made by Mary Graham but I did some changes on it. Accidentally actually! So, I renamed it as Tulip Hearted Quilt. You wanna know why? Hehehe.Just look at the images that I uploaded here....you will know why..I'm still in an early stage and luckily I still got few beautiful fabrics which i bought from Ebay last few months ago. At last i know what to do with those fabrics.

Very sweet color..

The fabrics has been cut into few small pieces. I decided to make 24 colorful hearts for Eidil's quilt.

Just to show the process of combining the patterns.

Errkk....and this is what happen when I get so over excited.Supposely this is a heart pattern but i forgot to add allowance on one side of that heart. So, it becomes unbalanced. That is why.. I decided to alter back the heart to become..Tulip!!It looks like tulip right? So, from beginner hearts...it suddenly transform to Tulip Hearted! Designed by Jessie! hehehe..Thank god i can still continue my quilt.This is the basic idea on how i susun all these cute tulips.

That's the only thing that i did last night. I still need to buy few fabrics for the background. Green looks great too right? Soft pink maybe? Ermmhh...nvmind.Let just wait and see what's the final decision. Till my fingers meeting this keyboard again. Challo!
