Lazy Daisy Stitch

Nothing to do since I've finished my tudung bawal. Spend some time doing these Lazy daisy stitch on felt scraps last weekend.. Made into another pincushion....Yes..I have no fresh ideas..keep on repeating the old one. As of these entry, left only one bullion roses pincushion in my care. The rest has gone into thin air. (Including this one)

This pincushion is(was) my latest craze. Trying to think out of the box, I tried lazy daisy stitch..It's quite easy and enjoyable. The best part is, I no longer have the hate for french knot...Used to hate french knot on my cross stitch before, always opting for the easy way out-using beads instead.


Now, am searching for more ideas to make more pincushion..called me a pincushion freak...Its a very handy express gift for any emergency occasion..yay!!

Paper Basket Of Pincushions.

The outcome of my rolled old newspaper tube...has been made to accomodate my collection of pincushions.Just need a fresh make over of varnish eh..







Looks like I have to make a new batch of bullion roses pincushion as it is getting lesser by the day. ( Noticed the round blue pincushion has gone missing?).

Pincushion Madness Part 2

I made 2 pincushion from (I supposed to throw away) felt scraps. I admit that its time consuming to make this but as I am in no mood to do anything else, I guess it paid off - a stress therapy that I don't have to pay for..

The pincushions are actually to make up for the loss of some item in my 'basket of small'.Relatives who visit tends to 'visit' my basket too and consider things taken as souvenir ...ha ha ha. Well, the good side of me only wants to smile . Then I have an excuse to make another.... and another..

Pincushion madness

Yes...I'm still in the bullion roses mood. Made several pincushion with bullion roses motifs over the weekend.. Dont laugh please, I just cant get enough of it. I know I'm suppose to finish the tudung bawal but I just cant help myself.

When cleaning out my stash box. found few felt pieces that should be thrown away but the good side of me want to do some thing with it..so there it is. There's another 2 pincushion that is waiting for the final touch up...I'll upload the pics later.

For now, lets just look at the pincushion..(hehehe..tak cantik mana pun tapi saja nak tunjuk jugak...sabor jer la ek)....On second thought..is it stingy or creativity?LOL.

Bullion Roses on Tudung Bawal

I have started my project on tudung bawal hand embroidery..Lets have a sneak priview . Only started with the hem as I dont have any idea yet of the main pattern...letih dah hantuk kepala ni..Happy that this time I manage to 'control' my roses petals..'wink'

Zigouigoui

Holla...

I have been keeping the intention to make a zigouigoui ever since I saw a blog owner ( Its a friend of Musliha but I cant remember who ) who take part in a zigouigoui exchange project. All the zigouigoui was gorgeous . Suddenly I was inspired..he he he. Musliha did gave me the tutorial link.


I manage to make a small one even though it took quite a long time to accomplish. The pattern was an idea of mine ( a 'campak-campak' one- one might say). But hey...with added embelishment like the beads and ribbon..the dull zigouigoui look attractive..yes? Ha ha ha




Yes...it will be added to my collection of smalls..
