red satin baby dress

Again I fall in love with my new creation. I make this dress for my niece for attending my cousin wedding. The color theme of the wedding ceremony is red color so I choose this color. Walla..it turn so beautiful. I also add some beads so it will be more colorful. Actually I not plan to share this design by today since I'm waiting the picture of the owner wearing this dress and seems i will be getting late to share with you guys so i had to share it with you today. Hope you guys will like it also. Once I receiving the picture, i will share with you guys. BTW, you also can add me through my MiedaCreatives facebook to get the latest creation since usually I will upload the picture through facebook before I share it in my blog.

tierred layerred dress


Another dress for my niece..she's so lucky... Her aunty like to sew her dress. Again I fall in love with this dress.. firstly i'm not confident whether it will fit with my niece or not since I do the wrong measurement for the ruffle. But when my sister send her picture, I love it and so beautiful. This will motivated me to make more dress her..Of course her mother will be so happy since she can save some money buying her dress.





When I share the picture of this dress to my sister through facebook and she make another request for another same dress like this for her niece in law. When I saw this picture it make me happy. There is feeling that I can't describe when someone wearing the dress I design.

A-Line dress

I always wanted to make A-Line dress. And Alhamdulillah I manage to make one. And I had make this dress for my niece from my stash fabric. It turn so nicely. I loved it. After making this dress it encourage me to make more dress. I was dreaming if my daughter wear this dress. Hopefully it will come true.

What do you think? It is nice?

I buy this fabric during my visit to Jakel. Actually my plan was to make my own baju kurung and I have one. I make this dress from stash after making my own baju kurung. If you notice that I make pleated scoop body for this dress to make it beautiful. And I refer to this tutorial to make that pleated scoop but I change a bit since the tutorial is using bias tape.




I prefer to use button instead of zip so it will look different and look like a custom made. Actually the main reason is I'm so lazy to sew the zip. Button is more easier than zip. hehe.




See how nice when she wear it and it motivated me to make more dress for her..She's so love taking picture and every time it have different pose. Boleh jadi model neh...

mieda berwajah baru

Alhamdulillah..Akhirnya tercapai juga impian saya untuk membuat blog saya berwajah baru. masih belum sepenuhnya siap, header perlu ditukar and memerlukan pertolongan dari yang pakar. Nasib baik my brother ada kepakaran itu bole dpt free..hehe..Lupa plak nak print screen layout sebelum ni kalo tak leh wat comparison.

Baru-baru ini menambah lagi stok kain cotton yang di beli dr sini. Memang suka dengan corak2 kain ni.. cantik. kain2 yang di beli bukan untuk di jual tapi cadangnya untuk di simpan untuk bakal anak I tp mcm pelik la kn..belum merancang mahu ada anak lagi tapi barang2 sudah di sediakan..hehe..tp sbb suka tgk kain2 dgn corak2 yang cantik2 ni, keinginan nak membeli membuak2. lps ni mcm berazam nk membeli 1 corak kain untuk tiap2 bulan..boleh x? ..haha.. jwbnya kena la byk buat OT..

Jika ada yang masih ingat, last entry I pernah story yang I minat sangat tengok cite korea dan sekarang ni dah mula demam k-pop di seluruh dunia. Di sebabkan minta tengok cite korea ni I sanggup untuk tukar dr astro biasa kepada astro HD hanya untuk menambah 1 lagi channel korea iaitu 393. I'm not sure if you are aware about this channel or not. Sekarang bila je I sampai rumah , channel pertama yang I akan buka mesti 393. Actually apa yang I suka dengan pelakon2 korea ni, kulit muka derang cantik2 and licin2. rasa cemburu and berangan la kalau la muka I pun cantik mcm mereka. Kebetulan baru2 ni my office mate baru je blk dari korea and dia pun cakap kulit org korea memang cantik2. pastu terbuka la story pasal barangan kosmetik mereka yang terkenal seperti Skin Food, The Face Shop, Nature Republic, Etude and Missha. Akhiranya membuat kan I terjebak untuk membeli produk mereka..Apa yang best produk mereka ada natural and rege agak mahal tp rasanya berbaloi jika boleh dapat muka yang licin macam mereka. Lagi satu produk mereka semua berunsurkn bunga dan buah-buahan bau sangat la wangi x seperti produk kecantikan lain yang biasanya tiada bau ataupun ada bau tp bau bahan kimia. Dan sekarang yang terkenal adalah BB Cream mereka. BB cream ni mcm foundation tp this thing ada kebolehan untuk merawat jugak. Lagi satu yang I suka even I pakai BB cream ni x nmpk mcm I pakai foundation sbb ia tak la tebal dan hanya lapisan nipis sahaja. I pun beli satu and a few produk mereka. Niat untuk kelihatan cantik depan suami kerana Allah Ta'ala. InsyaAllah..harap2 ia menjadi.

Panjang I story nnti next entry i will update new baby dres.. :)

satin dress


Lepas I update gambar satin dress yg lepas, I dapat lagi satu tempahan untuk yang mahukan design yang sama seperti ini. Cuma warna sahaja berlainan di sebabkan ayahnya mahukan warna pink. I jahitan satu set beserta head band dan sarung tangan dan kaki. Sekarang masa terlalu terhad untuk menjahit dan tiada masa mahu update cerita2 baru di blog. Di sebabkan masa yang singkat saya hanya sempat update gambar2 dress baru di facebook.

Lepas jahit satin dress neh rasa seronok plak sebab lain dari lain dan sekurang2nya ada la produk baru. Jika ada yang berminat hubungi saya. InsyaAllah saya akan cuba memenuhinya.



Paling saya suka dapat buat head band..and cuba wat lain dari yg lain dengan buat bunga ros satin nak di bandingkan dengan fabric flower yang I pena buat before.

gaun baby untuk kenduri aqiqah

hampir 3 bulan blog ni menyepi tiada update yang terbaru dan baru hari ini muncul kembali. 3 bulan yang lepas agak sibuk dan banyak kerja yang perlu disiapkan jadi saya tangguhkan apa update di blog. Even facebook i didn't have much update on sewing. But even I didn't have any update but still continuing my interest in sewing. Sebenarnya banyak je hasil-hasil jahitan yang dapat saya buat sepanjang 3 bulan menyepi tapi selalu lupa nak snap picture. Hanya satu yang dapat saya snap picture.
Tambahan masa raya banyak tempahan untuk baju kurung jadi ketika itu saya kurangkn pengambilan tempahan untuk dress baby. alhamdulillah sekarang ni saya dah semakin yakin untuk menjaht baju kurung and tahu cara mana dapat siapkn satu baju dengan masa yang singkat since hanya ada masa untuk menjahit pada waktu malam dan sepenuh hari untuk weekend. jadi saya cuba caru jalan penyelesaian macam mana nak siapkan jahitan kurang dari satu minggu kerana waktu terhad di waktu malam sahaja.
baru2 ni sepupu saya ada request untuk jahitkan baby dress untuk kenduri aqiqah anak buah dia. so i upload the picture here..btw, i buat one set dengan sarung tangan and kaki dan juga headband tapi no picture for that. nanti kalo owner baju ni share picture i will share with you guys also wordlesss....tak tahu dah nak tulis apa...daaaa

Tips untuk mencari kelas menjahit yang terbaik

Weekend baru-baru ni I learn new thing that I never do before. Alhamdulillah, dengan pertolongan dari Allah, I dapat menyiapkan 2 baju kurung yang ada lining. It's new experience and challenging but at least I satisfy with the result. Yang paling rumit ketika memotong kain. Wow sangat rumit and tetiba baru terasa macam mana susahnya bg seorang tukang jahit untuk menyiapkan baju lining. And baru I faham why they charge us double for one baju kurung lining. Before I always complaining why they charge so expensive for one baju lining and now I know how hard it is just to finish one baju. Sejak I dah mula bergiat menjahit, sedikit demi sedikit I mula memahami apa yang di lalui oleh setiap tukang jahit untuk menyiapkan satu baju. Paling rumit bila melibatkan kain yg licin and nipis. Even I work as mask designer I think layout design more easier than design and sew one outfit.

Walaupun menjahit agak rumit but I enjoying every moment when I sewed especially when some one wearing baju yang I jahit. Satu perasaan yang tak dapat digambarkan. I also encourage someone out there who's interested to learn on how to sewing just go for it. I can say you can save a few dollar of your money by sewing your own baju and at the same time you can earn some money from it. For me I do see a differences of how much money I can save by sewing my own baju.

Even I have a basic skill on sewing but I still lack on some area which is make me thinking to take another class to improve my skills. But then it's hard to find sewing school in Kulim area. Ada tu ada tapi I tak berkenan dengan facilities yang mereka tawarkan. Like last time, I ada cuba belajar di satu sekolah di area Lunas but sungguh tidak memuaskan hati. The owner is Chinese. First, mesin jahit yang di sedikan hanya satu which mesin jahit kaki ok, bukan mesin jahit elektrik which is I didn't even try using mesin jahit kaki before. Bila mesin jalan je mesti benang akan putus. She charge to learn for one baju melayu is for rm150 which is I think tak berbaloi dengan equipment yang disediakan make me feel she just want money but not to share the knowledge. She not really pay attention to me, she will teach a few and then ask me to figure out by myself. Make me regret to pay rm150 but then nothing I get from it. So here I have some tips for those yang tercari2 cari sekolah menjahit for short course so later you wont regret it. And for those yang baru nak buka sekolah menjahit you can use this tips to apply it in your school so you can attract more people to come to your school.

1) yang paling utama pastikan sekolah itu menyediakan lebih dari 2 mesin jahit incase mesin jahit itu tidak bole digunakan ketika kita sedang menjahit. so takde la kita nak membuang masa

2) pastikan sekolah itu ada 2 jenis mesin jahit seperti mesin jahit kaki and mesin jahit elektrik in case kte tak tahu macam mana nak gerakkan mesin jahit kaki itu.

3) pastikan sekolah itu tidak mengenakan cas bayaran belajar mengikut jam. I syorkan cari sekolah yang menawarkan caj bayaran untuk sepasang baju. sometimes kita memerlukan masa yang lebih untuk menyiapkan satu2 baju since ia bergantung pada individu. Kalo individu yang jenis fast learner maybe bole mengenakan caj bayaran mengikut jam mungkin juga bg yang ada basic. Tetapi bagi yang beginner better find school yang kenakan caj bayaran tidak mengikut jam.

4) pastikan owner kedai itu memang berkemahiran untuk mengajar.

harap info ini berguna since I dah kena few times. so before decide nak belajar tu masuk sekolah itu untuk pastikan equipment yang disediakan semoga kita tidak menyesal di kemudian hari. nanti anda juga yang rugi..hehehe

selamat pagi

Hi,

Lama I x update blog. Tajuk pun dah ucap selamat pagi sebabnya saya menaip entry ni seawal kul 7 pagi..hehe.. sekarang ni busy dengan keje yang entah bila boleh siap. dah siap satu assignment bos bg lagi assignment baru. even pagi ni kena datang ofis seawal kul 6 pagi gara-gara nak balik awal sbb nak balik KL hr ni. Yahoooo...

tapi dalam sibuk2 tu malam and weekend mesti saya x lepaskan peluang untuk menjahit, tambah2 sekarang banyak juga tempahan. but most of it tempahan untuk baju raya. fuhh lega skit sebab xla nk cepat kan. yang pening tu bila dapat tempahan semua nak cepat. dulu amik juga la tempahan yang begini sebab nak tambah pengalaman menjahit tapi sekarang terpaksa di tolak di sebabkan bila menjahit dalam keadaan tergesa2 jahitan akan menjadi tidak kemas. mcm x best la plak if customer tu tgk jahitan x cantik tapi duit amik kn. so for those yang I tolak tempahan anda, minta maaf sangat2. saya prefer kalo nak tempah tu seawal 3 weeks b4 a day happen but still depend on demand. kalo ketika itu saya banyak tempahan kemungkinan ia akan memakan masa yg lama utk di siapkn

oh yea, berita gembira saya dah ada mesin jahit tepi dah sekarang. suka tak? so aktiviti menjahit akan menjadi lebih cepat sbb x perlu lagi keluar rumah. gembira yang tak terhingga bila mesih jahit tu sampai di rumah. dan nak tahu tempahan mana yg merasmikan mesin jahit tepi baru saya..jeng..jeng..jeng..

ni la baju first yg merasmikan mesin jahit tepi saya..hehe.. baju ni adalah untuk anak buah sepupu yang berumur 2 tahun and 3 tahun. ibu tuan baju ni siap request jahit manik lagi but yang simple je la. terhasilnya jahitan manik yg simple yg mmg semua org tahu. ingat mcm nak kuatkan lagi skill jahit manik. harus menghadiri bengkel sulam manik neh..tp bila nye la ada masa...huhu..

since mesin jahit tepi dah ada, so next target I nak dapatkan mesin jahit industrial. laju skit. InsyaAllah akan di usahakan.

Oh yeah, baru2 ni saya ada dapat voucher JJ sebanyak rm900. waaaa..banyak kan? actually bukan br dpt tapi sbb saya kumpul since last year. tambah voucher JJ xde expired day lagi la heaven kn. so kumpul la banyak2 dengan target nk dapatkan TV LCD. muahaha..tinggi je berangan kn. Alhamdulillah, weekend lepas tercapai hasrat di hati utk mendapatkan TV LCD tu dengan menggunakan voucher tersebut dan saya hanya perlu menambah dalam rm200++ je lagi. bile bergurau dengan suami, mesti saya akan kata TV ni murah je dalam RM200++ jek sbb nya keluar duit sendiri sebanyak tu je. murah kan. lepas ni akan di kumpul lagi voucher JJ tu. hehehe.. InsyaAllah jika Allah memberi rezeki yg murah pada saya tahun ini. :)

Mieda's bag - 2

I make another version of Mieda's bag. It's a bit small than this. This time I'm not using leather handle. Since I have the smallest version I treat this as my handbag. I received a few of compliment from my family and my sister. They say it's look like made from padini since it using khakis fabric. It awesome rite? My sister and sister-in-law had place an order also. And they request by using leather handle. And also I will have to make another one for my mom since she also had request one.

Not much to say since my schedule was so tight. I had to priorities my work first. I only had manage to take one picture only and enjoy.

Mieda's wrist pouch..

Women will never be separated with accessories. They loved so much accessories like I do. hehe..If we talked about the things women like, it will be no end since there is so much thing they love. It happens to me also but not everything we can have it.

I still remembered before I get married I never have handbag since I prefer wallet. But after I get married it changed, I start to love all those accessories. But I never have change to buy the expensive bag since I prefer the reasonable price as long you comfortable to wear it. If I have more money I will think of it but right now I prefer to have more saving than more handbag.

Last entry I share with you guys my latest creation. And today I have new one.
In order to match with my new bag so called Mieda's bag, I created this wrist pouch by using the same fabric. And again it turn so nicely and adore it so much. Now I have handbag and match with my wallet. It's third time I change my wrist pouch and some of my friend notice it. Since I can make it why not I change it frequently rite.








this one specially use in the office only for some reason. hehe..

I have another story, I'm a bit disappointing with one shop at Kulim. Previously I do buy my home sewing machine at same the shop. And last week I wanna to but walking and quilt foot that suit with my NV-30 brothers. But I'm a bit shocked with the price. The price was double than the original price. I do checked the price before with brother headquarters and they giving different price. For walking foot it's only RM80 but that shop sell for RM120 and also for quilting foot was originally RM31 but that shop sell for RM120. Did you see the huge differences? And then I requested with them the dealer shop at Kulim and maybe I will go there and survey how much they sell since the price was so unreasonable. Did anyone have buy any brother footer before? can you all share the price?

Mieda's bag...

Like I promise last time there is new project I will share with you guys. I make my own bag which is I adore it. It turn so nicely and so so awesome. I didn't put any stabilizer so I have to hang it to get nice view of picture. The size of bag approximately 17 " X 17". It's too big? Yes but it just nicely fit with my laptop. I receive a big laptop from my company due to we work on design team so we need to have big screen. But I'm happy. I love this bag so much.

Let me describe the detail of the bag. Outer fabric I'm using cotton drill/twill which is I found it when I go shopping at Kamdar Bukit Mertajam. Actually this cotton drill/twill is simillar like khakis fabric. For inner fabric I'm using cotton linen which is I buy online from MayMayShop. Also the leather handle I buy from MayMay too.

When I'm wear this bag, my friend will not believe it if I make it by my own. She think I buy it. Believe it or not? You should believe it that I sew this bag. I didn't buy it and it's a custom made specially made for me..hahaha.. I plan to make another smaller one. But the size should be fitted to bring my telekung also since I only have small handbag in my collection. So enjoy the picture.



Outer view. I named it as mieda's bag


inside view but I turn it so easily can capture all.


Note: Sewing activity, sekarang I tengah menjahit baju kurta suami dengan berkolar yang mana I cuba elakkan untuk menjahit baju yang berkolar. For me a bit difficult when it come to kolar sewing. Selalunya mesti x menjadi, senget la, tak tegak and lembik and besar sangat la and mcm mcm lagi. But per husband request so nak tak nak I kena buat jugak. Later I will share with you guys if the kolar turn nicely or badly k. Hopefully it will turn nicely.

1st April 2011

Dah masuk hari ke-empat. selsema and batuk masih tak hilang lagi. Alhamdulillah demam dah kebah. Tapi dalam x sihat ni aktiviti menjahit masih I teruskan. Hari rabu lepas dapat MC tapi masih lagi nak menjahit. haha..cuma petang tu lepas solat zuhur, tido dalam 3 atau 4 jam kesan ubat batuk and selsema.

Hari ini sudah masuk bulan 4 dan agak-agak ada ke yang terkena "April Fool" hari ni? Di ofis macam sunyi sepi mungkin masing-masing sibuk dengan keje yang entah bila akan siap. hahaha..

Minggu lepas I ada beli e-book sulaman reben dari suzana mustafa. Dan suka sangat bila dah dapat cd tu. kena cepat2 buat ni. Yang membuatkan I excited sebab I memang dah lama teringin nak buat sulaman bunga ros yang ada kelopak tu. Cantik sangat. Harap2 dapat buat dalam tahun ni jugak. huhuhu..

Both my sister and my mom dah awal2 booked untuk jahit baju raya. Perancangan awal gitu. Sebab derang tahu I jahit baju derang lambat sebab I utamakan pelanggan dulu. So derang2 pun dah booked awal2. Walaupun raya bulan 8 tapi kami dah sibuk cari kain dalam bulan 2 lagi tu dengan kain yang sama. hahaha..Macam tahun lepas, lagi seminggu nak raya barula I kelam kabut siapkan baju mereka. Harap-harap tahun ni dapat siapkan baju mereka awal. Minta maaf la adik-adik ku.

Sebenarnya banyak wish list yang I teringin nak buat. harap2 la I dapat capai semua tu dalam tahun ni sebab macam tahun lepas banyak yang tertangguh. Tapi I bole agak dalam bulan 6 I mesti dah start sibuk dengan kerja2 ofis sebab projek tengah peak waktu tu. waa...harap la I masih bole dapat amik cuti raya seminggu. I teringin sangat nak cuba buat quilt tapi entah bila la bole dapat buat. kain dah ada cuma masa je yang takde lagi. huhu..

I have 6 days comp leave but I don't have any plan yet. Plan macam nak travel tapi tak tahu kat mana nak pegi. Rasa nak travel area malaysia je xnak keluar negara. Ada idea tak? banyak tu 6 days, sayang plak kalo x guna sebab expired sampai dalam bulan 6 jek. Maybe some of might have some question how I get those comp leave, actually my company will give an extra leave for those who participated on certain project and they will give it by end of the project. The days of leave will depends on how long you in the that project. For me, I started by early of project so I get more days compare to other started late. And this extra leave will not deducted from your annual leave. So even you stress and work hard to accomplish the project by end of project you get some award and of course you will be happy rite. Like me I just bersyukur dengan apa yang Allah gave it to me. I will try not complain since everything He gave us, He know what the best. So we better thankful for all we have now.

I have new item to share with guys but not capture yet. stay tune...........

Jom Jahit Wallet by TiniHani

Since I'm not busy with my office work I started again blog walking. Sudah lama I tinggalkan since I was so busy previous. And last 2 days I'm reading TiniHani blog. She invited to do sew along for wallet. Interesting idea since I never try before. So I decided to give it try and here you go. Even I'm not felling well today but I had give a try to make it since I had dream to make this wallet before. But I'm still not satisfying for a few things:
1- jahitan masih tak kemas. perlu di perkemaskan lagi di masa akan datang
2- wallet a bit small. I can't even insert my card so I decided just use for putting money
3- teringin nak buat cantik secantiknya macam this walletKakAs
4- i have to use button since I don't have any magnetic button but I had order to MeiMei shop this morning. so the next wallet I will be using magnetic button. hehe..
5- forgot to put any strap so easy for me to bring to anywhere.


Tengok jahitan masih tak kemas and harus di perbaiki di masa akan datang. For the next wallet I will using magnetic button.




What do you guys think? Cantik ke? For me I still rasa masih tak cantik. hehe.. So guys sesape yang berminat nak join silakan but remember last date is 31 march. Selamat mencuba.

Bundle entry...

There is so much thing I want to share with you guys. The item today was done long time ago and I manage to share it today with you guys. The item such as table runner, cushion cover and Ribbon Embroidery. I'm proud with my self if when I looked back all these item is in my house plus it's made from my hand. It feel great. can you imagine? For those DIY lovers, I believe you guys will have same feeling like me.


My husband did request to put some fabric on it to prevent from dust since the color of cabinet is white. The right hand side view


The left hand side view.


Previous I have table runner but I hand over it to my mom. so I make new one. you can go to this link if you wanna see previous table runner.





The pink one is in my room now and the blue one is in my car rite now.



Close up view. I'm using button and hide it in the back.

horrayyy!!!! there is a cheque in front of my door

As usual bila I sampai umah after work, I akan buka post box and yesterday there is letter dengan cop URUSAN PADUKA BAGINDA. Wow, I'm expected maybe surat dari LHDN (Lembaga Hasil Dalam Neger) and yes it's true. Sebab tak sabar nak tengok isi kandungannya I terus open that letter before enter my home. And wallla ada cek rupanya. owh sangat la I suka. Alhamdulillah. Tahun ni I dapat cek dari LHDN lebih awal dari yang I sangkakan. Like last year I got it around June since I submit e-filling by end of April. But this year I submit it on 1 or 2 March 2011 if I'm not mistaken and yesterday I got the cek. So tips for tax payer, submit your e-filling by early of March so that you can get your cheque by end of march. :) And InsyaAllah by tomorrow cheque tu akan clear since I dah submit it this morning kat bank. Credit to LHDN since I can get the cek earlier than I expected. Thanks a lot. Even this year I have to pay tax more than last year (a bit sad) but then I'm happy when I receive the cheque.

What should I do with that money? I have a lot in my mind and what I can think of now, I want amy butler book. huhuhu...and also designer fabric (kumpul byk2 wat koleksi mcm zura ) and also buying cotton twill and also LCD TV and also laptop and etc. So many wish list but it just a dream since I can't afford to buy for all these thing. There is something more important than that. huhu..

Other than that, right now I'm counting day for my designer fabric reach my home which is I order from Zura too. I plan to make Baju Kurung. X sabar nak tunggu. Actually last 2 day I ada nampak cotton twill kat fabric.com and terasa macam nak beli and almost I minta tolong my office mate yang ada friend stay at US. At the same time I order fabric designer too. But after a day I had ask his help, I cancel it again since this month I'm buying too much fabric and it's over my budget. You can't help if you addict and fell in love with all these nice and beautiful fabric especially Amy Butler design. There is a lot of project in my mind when I see those beautiful fabric. This year I have to save a lot of money since I have a huge plan to spending with that money. hopefully it will become true. Amin.

Since I got the cheque yesterday, do you think I can buy those designer fabric? waaaa...still thinking..think..think..

Currently I a few of project just finish but then I still don't have time to capture all those picture. Maybe one day I will share it with you guys. Stay tune.....

Should I resign?

I just read this blog Okinokiyo which is I found it during my blog hop today. Yes I do love blog hop. It's interesting blog and kind of attracted my attention when she share on online business tips. Honestly I do love running online business too but then I don't have high confident to make it fully support since right now I do it as a part time. After a few minutes reading this article make me consider to resign and start running online business. But then after thinking it twice, my bad mind giving me a hundred bad reason. Waaa... I admit it that I do love by doing all sewing work compare with my current job. Even sometime I feel stress to complete the order but then the stress was so so different when I have to dealing with my boss to complete my tasks.

Okinokiyo has a good sharing. Do I have to start thinking to fully serious doing online business? Even now I have a few customer among my family and friends, one day I have to make hard decision by resign with my current position and start business since my husband waiting for me at KL. Waaa...it's hard decision.

What do you guys think, should I resign and seriously start online business. Or maybe can you share other blog which is they share on online business tips. Allah..Saya dalam dilema.

black oh black


Actually I plan to share this by last week but then I don't have enough to write something on my blog since I plan to travel to KL last weekend. I don't plan it, it just across my mind on thursday night when I look at my fabric. So I grab it and automatically my leg bring me to sewing machine table and I start to sew it and walla it turn so nicely.

Pinchusion Tutorial

Did you see any difference in my blog? At last I manage to have time changing my blog template which is I wish long time ago. Owh I feel refreshing and starting from now I will try my best to update my blog frequently. :)

Even I love on sewing and will do it every day but at the same time I will try to keep my sewing area clean and organize. But then sometimes I do feel not comfortable with all sewing tool since it's not organize. Which is I have to find one by one. A bit tired and wasting my time when I keep finding my sewing tool. I do love blog hop and one day I found this blog (sew mama sew) which is she's sharing pinchusion tutorial and it attracted me to try it. It will keep all my sewing tool in same place. You wanna see the result?

Taraaaa....If you wanna to try it you can click here. Other than that you also can try the other tutorial she's sharing. She has so much free tutorial that you can try. Good luck

Most of the fabric is come from stash which is I kept it before. There is a day when my husband question about all the stash I have, - what should you do with all this stash.

Inspired by book

Today I'm so inspired by book of "Aku Terima Nikahnya" by Hasrizal Abdul Jamil. It's malaysian language book. The truth story of the writer. Some part of the story is similar like I experience currently. Even I am married but I'm not living in the same house with my husband since we working in 2 different state. Which is it will take around 4 or 5 hours journey for us to meet. So we decide to meet during weekend. Luckily that both of us will be off from work on weekend. So it's easy for us to meet and be together. Honestly I feel a bit tiring and it's a bit hard since I'm leaving alone in different states with my husband and no other family members beside me. So everything I need I have to do it alone. I have to independent. Sometime I feel gave up but then after reading this book it's inspired me again, how valuable my marriage. I'm still thanks to Allah to gave me a husband compare with other which is no husband. It's has been 3 years we living a part. Everyday I pray to Allah SWT, one day both of us will be living together and having kids.

Since I have to stopped all my sewing work, I start to read some of the book. One by one I read it. After one finish then I will find another new book. There is another 3 book waiting for me. Aja - aja fighting !!!!! (korean language which is mean work hard or good luck) But most of my book was Islamic book. But then I'm interested to read this 2 books "Mens Are From Mars" and " Women Are From Venus" by John Gray. I wish I can have this 2 books.

The best thing, I had started again my sewing work since one of my relatives ordered dress for her daughter. I have to accepted even I'm still not fully recover. But then it's good for me to have some exercise by working on sewing project. After it done done I will posted it here and also I had plan to sew my own clothes which is "Baju Kurung" (Malay tradition cloth) and blouse shirt.

Who addicted with korean drama???? ME!!!!!! FYI, I'm fan of korean drama. I enjoying by watching it. Most of the drama was so good and also it's love story but I'm enjoying it. Currently I'm addicted drama with title of "Dream High". It's so nice and happy story. Oh I'm so like happy story. I never watch any kind of sad drama. It's not attract me and make me more stress. I prefer to watch happy story since it will inspired me to be stay patient with my life.

I was hoping there is happy ending too with my marriage. Guys pls pray for me.

ergonomics requested

Hi,
Almost 2 month I don't have any update. It's due to I don't have internet access at my hometown since I'm on Medical Leave. I think I'm taking a month of medical leave and luckily it's still in my medical leave limit. But then last 3 week I lost my grandmother. She's passed away. During that time I'm not at hometown and I have to driving from Kulim, Kedah to Kuala Lumpur which is it will be taking more than 4 hours to reach there. But then I don't have much time, I need to rush so that I can see my grandmother face for the last time before they buried her. I'm so sad, during the journey i was crying non stop until my husband make a joke. And luckily I have time to meet my grandmother for the last time.

During my medical leave until now I had to stopped my sewing activity since I need more rest. Even though I feel eager to start sewing but I have to take care of my self also. I will start once I'm feeling better. Even now I frequently going to attend physiotherapy treatment but I'm still not fully recover. I have to limit all my housekeeping activity. And also I have to limit my activity by using laptop. I had to start exercise and I can say most of my time at night lay down in front of television to take a rest on my shoulder since in the office I'm not able to lay down. I wish I will fully recover. Every day I pray to Allah, "Ya, Allah sembuhkanlah penyakit yang ku hadapi ini". I was hoping I will pray for it everyday and not bored to ask Him every time during praying time.

Today, I'm requested ergo equipment from my employer such as mouse and keyboard wrist pad and also footrest. Even though my chair is adjustable but the high of the table was not suit with me. So when I adjusted the chair but then my leg will be hanging. That's why I need footrest. I make another request for a new chair which is it can support my shoulder and cervical area. But then I have to go through a few process before I can requested it. I have to seek a doctor and also ergo evaluator. All these item it'd for prevention purposes. Hoping it will reduce my pain.

I want to feel normal again. I'm so jealous to others when they can walk or seat normally which is I am not. But then I'm still happy even I only having minor disc bulge I am still alive. Allah still giving me a chance to worship more for Him. Pray for more, zikir for more and more. Ya Allah kuatkanlah iman hamba mu ini. Amin.

Thanks guys for all your comment and again thanks for reading my blog. I was thought there is no one interested with my blog. Thanks again. See you again.
