Paper Piecing

Had been absent from blogging for the past few years.  Actually I miss my blog but there were so many things happened during the few years.  Hopefully I'm able to blog again. 

My very first blog for this year 2020 is about paper piecing. I love sewing these because it is very therapeutic for me. As you can see I will fussy cut most of the fabrics and I just love how it turns out.  Paper piecing can be addicted for me but it can be time consuming too. Will share in my next blog post regarding more projects on paper piecing. 

Have a blessed day.

Burlap Tote Bag




Since I'm still having a little obsession on owls, I decided to DIY my own burlap tote bag with an awesome felt owl.  The totel bag looked so much fun and gorgeous with the owl and a little bow to make it looked more kawaii.  It looks great as a shopping bag too..

Have a great Sunday!

Rag Dolls

 
Lately I've been trying  to make one of these rag dolls and finally I managed to sew three of them.  It took me awhile to sew these and it's not an easy project to begin with.  It took me a few weeks to complete it and feeling great that I've managed to do it without giving up. 
 
 




Of all the three rag dolls, I think the pink hair is one of my favourite dolls.  I love everything about her, from her pink hair to her cute little dress. What do you think?  Which one of these do you like?

I had fun making these clouds and enjoying just looking at them and the clouds just lifted up my mood.  Have a nice cloudy happy day everyone.

Personalized Paper Bag

 
 
These are the little personalized paper bags that I design for the girl's party as bags for special door gifts.
 

What I did was draw some cute paper dolls to decorate the paper bags.. (I'm not good at drawing but I tried very hard to make the paper dolls looked sweet and cute)


I chose this checkered  pattern to make a little gift bag.  If it's too time consuming to make your own paper bag, just buy it from the store and choose whatever designs that you like.  For this paper bag, I glued a doily paper at the top.
 
 
 
Cut the little paper dolls and glue it on the paper bags.  I even wrote their names onto the paper bags,  so it's more personalized for the girls.

Have a nice day and good night!

Finger Puppets

Quick post for today, felt finger puppets of a rabbit, a chick and a mouse.


I did these finger puppets for the kids... I think it looks absolutely adorable especially the little rabbit.  It's a fun project to make it together with the kids.  Actually they requested me to make little monsters felt finger puppets, so the next project I  will be creating little monsters for the boys.  Maybe these looks too girlish and too cute for them. 

Have a nice weekend everyone.

Felt Organizer

 
As my felt mania continues, what better way to be creative than making these fun felt organizers.  I got this idea from a friend of mine and I like her little felt organizers so much and I decided to make a few for myself.
 
 
Obviously the bright blue polka dot is all mine as I'm also obsessed with polka dots so this is a perfect organizer for me.  I decorated  with a simple crochet flower and little cute buttons.  I did make another organizer for Jeremy and his organizer is super adorable too with printed felt elephants.
 
 
From the inside, there's a little pocket to put my receipts and banking slips for the month, so I can keep track on my daily expenses.  Here I used my yoyo flower clip to hold all my receipts.  If you are interested in making the yoyo flower clip,  I will provide the link for you http://bowsribbons.blogspot.com/2014/01/cute-yoyo-flower-clip.html



As for little Jeremy's organizer.. there's a little pocket too and a pen holder for him.  I make an elephant clip for him to match the organizer. 


I really had fun making these and I think its a simple and cute organizer.   Have a great day everyone.

xoxo

Paperbag Elephant Puppet



Since today Yun Ji was not feeling well and missed one day of school.. I thought of doing a little project to cheer him up.  So we did this funny looking paperbag elephant puppet. This will be my second post for today..hope it's not too much.

 
For this project,  you need a paper bag.  You can make your own bag or use a recycle one.  For this project, we make our own paper bag using grey as the elephant's body.  I've already cut out some felts for the eyes, the big ears, the trunk and tail.  I used a black colour paper for the eyelashes and some cute stickers to decorate its body.

 
First step,   glue the ears to the side at the far left and right corner (as the picture shown here).  Then go ahead glue the eyelashes first before putting the eyes.

 
The next step,  just add on the trunk and the tail to the elephant and it's nearly completed.

 
To make it look more colourful, I stick on some stickers onto the paper bag and this makes the elephant seems more cheerful and adorable.


Finally I added a tiny little bow but it's optional, if you don't want it to be a female elephant :).  Hope this little tutorial helps and give you some ideas on it.  You can actually make all sorts animals using colourful felt and cute materials.. just be creative.

Sweet DIY Recycle TIns

Last week we make a visit to 'Achi's' store (Achi in Tamil language means sister).  Achi owns a little flower store which sells only chrysanthemum flowers.  I love her flowers because she dye the flowers in the most amazing colours of bright blue, green, orange and even shocking pink.  The gorgeous colours makes the flowers very unique.

I like using recycle tins as vases for the flowers.  What you need are some sweet colour yarns and some cotton lace for this particular project.  It's very easy, all you need is to wrap the yarn round the tin and secure it with hot glue gun.  It looks very sweet once i added the lace onto the tin. I love the pastel colours tins against the bright Chrysanthemum flowers.
Since Achi was camera shy,  so we ended not taking her picture...instead my little helper's photo was taken. I'm going to end my blog here..as it's super late right now and have i hope everyone will have a great day ahead.
