New Bag for Our Camera

My husband and I are going to Seoul, Korea for a few days to eat and shop in late September. He has been urging me to make a  bag for our camera ever since we bought the travel packages (actually it was just last Saturday). We bought this camera, Olympus EPL1 last year and he purposely bought a cloth from Japan website to wrap our camera. However, he now found that it's not convenient to wrap and unwrap the camera all the time so he thinks it would be better to have a bag for it. As there is no official camera bag for it, he urged me to make one. 

So here it is!! 

This is by far the most complicated bag I have ever made. I have been struggling with what fabric to use as I know I am supposed to use neutral fabric but not floral or girly ones as we share this camera. However, when looking into the fabric I have, I can't help but to choose pink and polka dots. 

I am very satisfied with this project ^^. I wish I can go to Seoul sooner. I read from the travel book and  learnt that there is a market that sells fabric, trims, ribbon!!!! We will go there on the first day. I can't wait.

Originally we planned to go to Taipei of Taiwan as I wanted to go to the fabric market there. Many people from Hong Kong go there as there are lots of fabric at a good price. However, we went to Taipei for our wedding pictures 3 years ago but we haven't been to Seoul together, so we resolved to go to Seoul. Now I found that there is fabric market in Seoul, which is a bonus to me!!!

By the way, I took a picture of my pink dresden coaster and my mug. I think they look really good together. Aren't they cute? The bunny is so happy ^^

Cell Phone Cases

What phone are you using? iphone? Everyone is using iphone but my husband like android system, so my sister and I both use Samsung's Galaxy S. It's easy to get iphone accessories but not for Galaxy S. Therefore, I made these two cell phone cases. The green one is for myself while the pink one is for my sister. 

Pink Dresden Coaster for Myself

When I was a teenager, I do not particularly like pink. I studied in a Catholic girls' school and my uniform was pink!! I wore pink for 7 years and had no feeling for it, don't particularly like it nor hate it. But when I started to sew, I found that most beautiful fabrics come in red and pink and I can't stop buying them. 

This coaster will be for my mug in office. Can you see my circle? It's still not perfect!! Seems even worse than the coaster I made for my sweet colleague. I'll work hard on it!!!!!

Document Case for a Colleague

It will be my organization's Annual General Meeting and Annual Dinner in the coming Thursday. Every year in the AGM, my organization presents award to staff who had served for 10 years, 15 years, 20 years etc. One of my buddies at work will get her 10-year award and I made this document case as a present for her.

Coaster for a Sweet Colleague

Inspired by Amy, I drew up my dresdens template (it's really hard to get dresdens template in Hong Kong!!!) and made this coaster for my sweet colleague. She loves yellow so I used 4 types of yellow fabric. This coaster is 13cm wide and I think it's a bit too big to be a coaster but too small to be a pot holder...T___T and my "super circle" is not that super, it's pointy T______T

Baggage Tag for my Sis

My sis is flying to Bali to attend her boyfriend's friend wedding next month. I used Arlyna 's Matryoshka template to make a baggage tag for her. I stitched her name, telephone no. and address at the back.

Book Cover for My Husband's Notebook

This is a book cover for my husband's A5 size notebook. I really like the fabrics, but seems he finds them a bit childish wahahahahahaha.
