Mother's day gift

I designed this purse for Mother's day, my mum and my mother in law love linen and I am sure they will love it.?? I still have some more clip frames left, I have to sew the holes around the frame, my fingers are so tiring at the moment. I have never try to use the one that you can just put glue in, I am not good at messy stuff.

I used this good quality natural linen and lace which I always buy from 6008rena(ebay) I love her fabric and lace. I stitched these tiny ribbon roses (ready made) which I bought loads from craft market in Bangkok. They come in many colors, I visualised them on my handmade items and baby goods. The inner fabric is lightweight cotton with lovely flower pattern.

I made the purse a bit longer than coin purses so it can keep a cellphone, lipstick, credit card and bank notes.
I have listed it on my shop at folksy  www.folksy.com/shops/zunathi







These tiny ribbon roses can find at www.folksy.com/shops/crazycraft

I made my handmade recycle paper bags to use myself and deliver the orders to my customers.

My little elephant friend keys case

Look at this guy who keeps my keys safe, he is so cute and easy to make. It is zakka style, it is a nice project to use up all small fabric pieces He will go everywhere with me from now on.



Mini handbag for me

I went on holiday in Thailand with a suitcase full of gifts for my family and friends and I came back with lots of presents for me and craft material.
My sister's best friend who I have know her since she was in secondary school with my sister, about 27 years!! I think of her as my little sister, she is working together with my sister how lucky they are.

She gave me this lovely mini handbag with zipper, it is so special because it all hand sewn and I like the color tone, I will keep it forever.







I have a thing with brass zipper charms, I love them. I love you " Sao" and thank you so much for this gift.
and thank you for being you.



I am back sewing again

Athi woke me up with his cough, and want to work with computer (that what he said) in my bed. Good morning to me so I got my kits out, I bought this small clip frame kit from my favorite craft shop " PINN" in Bangkok, inside the pack, I got a clip frame, exterior and interior fabrics,fleece, pattern and instructions.

I hand sewn this purse, I did not follow the instructions but the result is okay, I like it.





The time consuming bit was to sew the purse opening parts to the purse frame, I did not use glue before I sew it.
