"Like a Cheetah" Print Batik Cool Shoulder Bag

Being a batik lover, I just had to work on a batik project now and then. So here's my cool shoulder bag in "like a cheetah" print. Here, it's matched with a black lining. As usual, this bag is reversible so wear in batik on one day and mysteriously black on another.

Winter In Russia Cool Shoulder Bag

Still have a few back orders to finish but just don't have the time to start on them yet. And just when I wanted to start sewing, the machine has to have some problems. So, it's just back from the shop.

After RM70, today I've completed a few cool shoulder bag and some half moon bag. The fabrics have been pre-cut at hanging on my working chair for quite some time, so here some the pics. And of course, these are available for grabs.

Simple Gift - Batik Tissue Packet

I love to give gifts especially to those whom I rarely get a chance to meet ~ old friends, distance relatives, ex-colleagues ~ or even to office mates and function guests. I used to give out these lovely tissue packets to family members during our family gathering. Now I would like to extend the token to my beloved customers as well. So I've taken a step up in the packaging for it to be more presentable to my corporate customer. Each tissue packet is seal wrapped and adorned with silver metallic sticker bearing my name and Sulam Sayang.

Batik Chocolate Box

Conceptualizing a chocolate box out of batik.

This is the outcome of my first try at materializing the sewing crafted chocolate box. So the box is just a simple rectangular box with flip lid. It is fitted with a four by two chocolate tray. So it fits eight pralines or truffles just nicely.

Here the chocolate model is the flat round dark peppermint filled chocolate I did for Hazem's 16th birthday. A nice thank you satin ribbon for added embellishment.

Will followup with a nicer box. But if you want to followup with my delicious dark chocolate with peppermint creme, text me at 0199846026. We deliver nationwide.

Thank you.

Batik Table Runner

I'm not much of a frills type of person but following a request I have done this batik table runner with some decorative ends.

The batik is my favorite Sarung Batik Terengganu in red .. it has such a strong commercial touch yet depicts the vibrant spirit of Melayu.

Making use of the two available designs from the sarung I have done the back motif for one side and the body design for the other side. As the length of the runner is more than one and a half meter the side borders are made use to emphasize geometric design. A beautiful bead tassel with a little decorative copper like leave dangles at both ends of the runner providing weight and aesthetic feature.

Hope it is acceptable by you Mr. Lim.

Green Batik Table Cloth 04

Phewh! The last one for this order.

Long Batik Table Cloth 03

Waah! Three down one to go. You'd probably seen one similar to this one I finished earlier.

Similar yes, however this one is of different pattern of our Batik Terengganu.

Highlighted here is the napkins to go with the table cloth. The table cloth layout is with the icon back of the sarung running length wise in the center.

Throw Cushion

Trust on throw cushions to soften and brighten any room. Mix solids and prints for a cheerful look. Add trims and accessories just for the look your looking for.

Here I've made some throw cushion covers from my favourite Batik Terengganu. It is just so glorious and I love it. The covers are simple to make. No zippers were used therefore they are child safe. They have overlapping back just like your pillow covers so they are easy to put on and taken off for washing.

Pin Cushion

... pause from making table cloth as I've ran out of thread.

From reviewing old favorite sewing web pages I decided to try on throw pillows as they seem easy to make. But working with zippers, larger than 6 inch, is something I don't quite like. But how a about working on a tiny pillow ..



This tiny pillow serves as a pin cushion or pot pouri sachet. Cute.
