My new quilted pot holders...for Christmas!

Living in a tropical country made me always feel Christmas should associated with snow...at least I decorated my home with some snowy touch :)

As usual I made simple modern design. I bought this red snowflake fabric last year.
I combined it with local unbleached cotton, my favorite fabric.

I quilted these pot holders or coasters....(yes, you can use them for both!).

I love the idea that actually I have 8 coasters :D since they're reversible.

A Red Chrismasy Table Runner - my latest project :)

Just finished this morning after a whole month on and off working on it :)

Handquilted for the loop-d-loop lines at the top and machine quilted with simple organic lines for the rest.

Made from local red thick cotton with beautiful flowers print on it and local cream unbleached cotton.

The backing is also made from the same unbleached cotton.

Still in this project I was exploring how quilting polyester batting with organic lines could create a gorgeous texture on a quilt.

I used polyester batting to come up with unique and slightly different beauty in comparison if using cotton batting.

Well...this is my first christmas project for this year :)

How about yours?

"Monday, hopefully being a beginning of amazing week"

That was my yesterday morning prayer.
I just joined a new thread of 'The New Attraction Law team' on etsy. Interesting, meet new friends and especially could have a chance to practise and learn together what we all had read on the book. Excited!

I started my Monday by sending this pillow covers package to a lovely customer in Wisconsin.

Unfortunately my little boy was sick (He had a lot of cough because of the weather), but getting better now. While accompany him at home I tried to create a new pillow from my Indonesian batik stash. This time I took Java batik pattern and my favorite unbleached cotton.

I quilted 'rose bud' pattern on the white checkered part.
Love to see the result after all :)

How was your Monday? Hopefully great, too :)

Tote, Tote...

Lately I love making Tote Bags. This week I try on pattern from Sewingwithme from Etsy. I bought this 'Silhouette Flower on White' fabric last week and planned it for my bed sheet, but I can't stand and cut it for making a Tote :)

I used fusible interfacing between layers.


About this one....I used my left over Modern Blue Batik for this one. Quilted both sides of the bag body and used polyester batting between layers. Make it a little bit more puffy than the White Tote.
