Round Batik Table Cloth and Napkins

This project turns four batik sarung pieces into a round table cloth for six with matching square napkins. Since the requirement is for a 72" diameter round piece I had to piece the body of the sarungs together.

Here there is a total of eight pizza shape pieces, two from each sarung, sewn sharp ends together. Then from the sarung head, I got eight square napkins, two from each sarung head.

As I don't have a round dining table to test this table cloth on just use your imagination to see the piece. It's like a very large pizza sliced into eight - matching motifs at opposite sides.

"Would you like to have a cuppa honey!"

Nothing like a hot sweet tea with peppermint to have with freshly baked muffins! Hmmm.








P.S. Excuse the overall dark appearance of the photos. Placing the folded napkins on the table cloth for close up shoot was a mistake. Should have just used white background. Anyways .. enjoy. Especially you Norlin!! Muuah.

Cool Shoulder Bag - Small Flowers

Haven't done any sewing this May. This one was done earlier just haven't had the time to upload. Actually haven't had the mood. First my Nokia PC Suite, that's the software I use to multiple upload photos from my phone cannot connect to the phone; so I had to upload photos one by one! Then my laptop went kaput on me. Now everything technical is ok except that I'm still not in the mood for sewing.

Ocean Blue Half Moon Bag

This ocean blue bag is for Amar. Had to be redone as the earlier one she liked had to be given to the fabric's owner.

So I choose another ocean blue Batik Terengganu and matching blue voille for the handle for Amar's Half Moon Bag.

This bag is well formed as hard interfacing is used between the two bag fabric pieces. It is 100% reversible and washable. One side highlights the iconic batik heading while the other the modern motif of the sarung main body.




P.S. he he same wording used here as per earlier post. sorry, in a hurry. :)
