everyone is spoiling me... + giveaway winners

I just had the craziest two weeks. No sewing, no computer. Only cooking, running after kids and all other chores. Can you imagine how sad I am everyday looking at my working table and fabrics?

The happy times I had were when the postman rang my bell and passed me parcels. Everyone is spoiling me.... all my lovely friends.

Thank you so much, Amy! Thank you for the prettiest pincushion! It's so much bigger than I thought and it's so well made. I love it alot alot and have not used it yet... just cannot bear to damage it. I love all the hand stitching details. And thank you for the sweet note too!^_^

A parcel full of beautiful things from Amy! Thank you so much, Amy! I'm so spoilt by you with all the beautiful fabrics and ribbon trims and cards! And the sweet note! When I opened the parcel box, I was so overwhelmed by everything inside and I took quite a while admiring them. Amy also sent me a few Atsuko Matsuyama fabric which I don't have! Yay! And a few other pretty floral fabric too! *hearts*

Aw... this is one very surprised parcel from Kristin. My heart is still fluttering looking at this lovely parcel from Kristin. She is such a sweetie! She bought some fabric from my destash a while ago and I did not know she has so many better fabric in her stash! She just sent me this parcel without telling me! *happy* I love every single piece of fabric from her. And the fabric tape she did. All are my treasures! Thank you so much, Kristin! *hugs*

A big parcel of Sarah Jane, Children at Play fabric! I just could not resist this range of fabric so I had to buy it all from Kerri!They are such a darling! So vintage prints. And the pretty pom-poms by Riley Blake are a must to have too. I'm waiting for them to make pillows! Thank you so much Kerri!

So can you see how much I'm loved by lovely people? That includes my family too! They are loving me alot too and that makes me a little happier at the end of each day.

Ok, to the giveaway winners. Sorry for the long wait! Thank you so much for all your comments! I had a good time reading all and it was so interesting to find out the different kinds of flowers everyone likes. I really googled some flowers that I don't know. It's very fun for me to read about them! Thank you everyone for sharing!

Now, here you go:



I'll go according to sequence as in the generator.

18: Kristinorth - book
2: Elena - fabric
6: Kerry - fabric
15: ZiaMaria - embroidery thread

I'll email all winners shortly.

a happy post

Our day didn't start off good. But it ended off with everyone happy. It's a blessing I should treasure.

The beautiful bougainvillas around my housing estate. It's summer time and they are blooming so so pretty everywhere.

The kids planted red beans to learn about plant life. Look at how beautiful the leaves are. And the way they grow in every direction.

 

The cupcakes I baked for our family gathering last weekend. It was a tad too sweet for us. Even the kids said so.

This is what I wanted to show you all! Sewing something for my little Chilli. She has been bugging me everyday and I can't wait to finish sewing it this week. Can you guess what is it? ^_^

Yippee! My book is finally here! Waited for the longest time (or maybe I just cannot wait to start sewing the blocks!) and I was so thrilled to see it in my mailbox that day! *see my grinning face*

 

My boy's drawing of me. His happy mommy with a smiling face and waving hands saying "Hi!". He drew me three buttons on my dress. Very sweet of my little sweet boy. He has been drawing so much lately with alot of imagination and creativity.

It's a happy post with lots pictures. Yes, today is really a happy day.

Pretty occupied

A busy week.

We celebrated Chilli's 1st birthday. It was a small and cosy family get-together and we enjoyed it very much.

I have been baking quite alot this week too. All for next week's Chinese New Year. Just today, I baked peanut cookie tarts and they taste heavenly.

Pineapple tarts are real yummy too. The tart dough is made using "rubbing in" method using my MIL's recipe (she loves her recipe).

I'll be baking more for my family and relatives for the next few days.

And also, I sewed a felt floral pillow case for my IKEA pillow. It looks pretty too. It's in the machine washing. I'll take pictures soon, together with other handmades I did during the last holidays. Now, I'm hoping for a sunny day tomorrow.

An early christmas?

Nope. At least, not for zy.^_^

We set up our christmas tree last night and zy was overjoyed! Not just overjoyed but he was very very very very very happy. We did not expect him to figure out how to hang the ornaments on the tree (since he just turned two) and also, we did not expect his patience to last one and half hour.

The night turned out to be a beautiful night for us.

zy had so much fun. He chose the color of the ornaments, decide on the position on the tree, hang the ornaments all by himself. We saw how proud he was when he looked up the tree and said "nice". We could still remember the same time last year when zy messed up everything while we set up our christmas tree. He was crying for attention and we had to pull him away.

This year is totally different. zy has grown up so much and we did not realise it till last night.

Life is beginning to feel wonderful again...
