Jess-y sunblouse third version





I completed another Jess sunblouse, literally speaking on its third version of making. I love to see the combination of different fabrics to make into a piece of blouse, it's creative and funky at the same time. I like to wear this design of blouse very much, in and out of house, and ahh, not to mention the comfy it brings, in our all-summer seasons, no other blouse that suits better. If time allowed, I will make more to put it in my Etsy store for my dear clients to share the joy of having them. 

At times, I'm a very tired mama. School going children's first-half-year of school test was just over, most parents are now anticipating the outcome of results. yikes. those marks! I've decided that I'm not going to question much on their marks. I keep reminding myself to smile with them as though we have a good faith in their tests, but inside us, we've known that certain language papers whereby there are merely at border line. But we'll do postmortem on the areas they are weak at and work harder to improve it. There are parents or grandparents that intentionally walk to you and show off the marks of their grandchild as if they are genius, and I hate that. I never interested to know how much they score, never walk to me with this kind of discouraging act. I want my children to learn from their mistakes and there is always room for improvement. marking result is not an end-of-life issue. They should be given chances to do better, much less to compare. This way of thinking is more encouraging to give positive energy, agree?!

In the coming post, I'll share with you my way of working with pineapples... see ya..
