Sewing Is Never Boring


A Pouch for my daughter to put her charger n cable:)
 Hello Kitty fabric was bought donkey years ago when Yaohan 
was still located at Plaza Singapore:)  I used to frequent their
handicraft department and loved buying wools, fabrics, diy kits
etc.  A pity Yaohan shifted out of Singapore!


 New version of cute prints bought last year.  This material is
thicker and can stand on its own:) I have yet to find a owner
for this pouch:)  Maybe I will send it to Perth for my daughter
as well:)  


I like this pouch the most as in I like the fabric the most;)
My instructor alerted me to this print while I was shopping
for haberdashery recently.  She told me this print is going out
of stocks soon! I grabbed two pieces of fat quarters:)


Teaching my youngest girl to sew a simple pouch ended with me making
a dozen or so! Tissue holders are simply too easy to make and I ended
making more than I need and guess I may try selling some in the near future:)
The sewing genes must be in me!  I have learned how to use a sewing machine
when I was about twelve and remembered my mum buying a second hand
sewing machine;  I was thrilled beyond words and has since sewn my own
clothes before I turned thirteen:)  I took up sewing classes only when I was
sixteen during my school holidays.  Then again classes was resumed when I reached
 eighteen cos my standard was not good enough.  My interest in sewing did not
wane when I reached my twenties and working.  I went for private lessons 
and got me a teacher who taught me personally:)   I am glad today I am able
to teach my girls sewing and hope they will find it useful:)

A french seam tissue pouch





A quick stitch this morning while waiting to go for my job:)
My girl wanted to learn how to make a tissue pouch in the 
shortest possible time without hassle.  This is fully hand stitched:)
Cut two pieces of materials, 5 by 6 & 5 by 7.  Sew both the lengths
together on the wrong sides and turn them inside out:)
Fold the ends to the middle and sew both the shorter sides and
turn them inside out again!  A tissue pouch which is washable n
can be used over n over again:) Make one today!

Scape Bazaar March 2013




For the month of March 2013, we will be located just outside Toast Box:)
Though the weather is not very predictable, we still love to do our business
operation at Scape where the crowd is full of  young teenagers! At this age,
many girls as well as guys love to dress up and hence make up the bulk of
our buyers! For those customers not in the teen's group, we also  like to 
thank you for your support over the years at Scape Bazaar:)
See you folks at Scape during the weekend again if your time permits!

THANK YOU ONCE AGAIN:)
