Blue Bean Blouse



This little piece is well cover the hip - introducing BBB; Blue bean blouse. Well, before I grow too old for a mini skirt, I need to wear it more often. This blouse will be an ideal matching, be it with a short skirt or a pair of tight pants.
There's a new mini skirt in the making for Blue bean blouse which the pattern is lost but found. 
Have a great week ahead.
Happy New Year 2014!

Adenium flowers and a pencil pouch


 



We have been to year end's floral fair held at Penang Botanical Garden, an event that is not-to-be missed by me, it's a beautiful place with blooming Adenium flowers. Coming back home one day, my son tells me that if it's not wrong there are almost twenty Adenium plants outside our home that he just counted. Oppsss... I just bought another three! I used my way to convince him that it's a normal thing for an addicted plant hobbyist to add collection to the species, and make sure we grow it well.  Now, they start to question me over unnecessary spending of money. Another favorite excuse is - "long long time bought once, it's okay one.." So, as long as you like the thing, just say you haven't buy it for a looooong time, then they'll give in to let you buy ;))

I'm making another Jess sunblouse which would be my new year blouse, but it has been weeks I can't finish one, then I carry on to make a desired zippered pencil pouch requested by the little ones - "a bigger in size one compared with the existing one and able to sit on the table type." I personalized the pencil pouch with their drawing and embroidered the picture onto it. It's my favorite do with pencils and pouches, and needles and threads...

With a better camera




Pictures above taken using new Canon EOS. Yes, the images are much much better compare with those taken by Canon Power Shot which I survive with when there's no budget for a better one. The first thing that I captured with the new camera is these cream cheese cupcake which I baked for kids' class party, it makes me hungry and wanted to try on it upon seeing the cupcake pictures, yum...yum...
