Xstitch Kits

2010-06-08T22:55:00.005+08:00

Bought these kits online some time last year. It is a UK site and surprisingly it took less than a week for these to reach me. I would definitely recommend this site for your cross stitch needs (kits, cloth, thread etc). The craft scene in Mlk is quite pathetic - it is difficult to get good quality craft stuff. Not too sure about KL though. But thank God for the world wide web!

Our place here is too small to hold a party and so to get in the christmas mood, we decided to giftwrap some sweet delights (santa-shaped chocs, candy canes, hersheys, sugus, chupa chups, m&ms) for the kids of hubby's colleagues. It made me feel all kiddie myself *smiley* The theme of course was red and green. But I do need to apologise for this late posting.

Thank you cards

Here are some cards I made as a little 'thank you' token to my ex-colleagues when I left the company last year. Yes, this is a long overdue post as I didn't have access of these until recently.

A cross-stitched terrier with a pink wire-bone.

Minimalist. Simple and sweet.

Flower power.

This was done quite some time back (after form 6 to be exact!!). It was only framed a couple of years back and was given to FIL as a birthday gift.

These pretty (ehem) earrings are the first few pairs i made when i first tried my hands at beading. I must thank Karen & Cally for introducing this highly addictive hobby to me. But for now the addiction seems to die off but I'm sure once i get my fingers moving it'll return in no time!

This loveable couple doggies were a gift to Kor and Karen. I was in the 'felting' mood then so i had to find new victims for my handmade gifts. Anyway, I assure you that this is the final installment of the felt series,.. at least for now. Enjoy!
