十二月布交流会的雪人零钱包

好快2011 年又来到尾声了,配合这个圣诞之月,我特地买了很富圣诞气息的棉布,缝了个可爱的圆形零钱包。 也正好可以补交十月份逃课的零钱包,哈哈!

做了简单的压线,好让雪人看来更凸出。 两面用的雪人图都不一样哦!

在这里祝大家圣诞快乐




塞纳河畔的埃菲尔铁塔包 Eiffel Tower Marche Bag

不要问我为甚么这个包的名字这么长,我只是照着布料来命名,呵呵。。。这个包是特地缝给一位多年不见的好友, 知道她病了可是身在200 公里以外的我却没有办法给与关怀,心里一直都很过意不去。想来想去就想说做个包好让她能够带在身边,见包如见人吧!这个包的配色都是凭自己以往对她的了解而配的,希望她会喜欢!

朋友,你身边有着很多支持你的家人和朋友,你一定要勇敢的对抗病魔哦!希望下回我回家乡看到的你是个开开心心,健健康康的你,加油哦!

This small and cute bag is for my best friend whom has not met for many years. Knowing that she is sick and besides giving my advice I couldn't help her much. So finally I decided to sew a bag for her, at least to encourage her to be brave to confront with her illness. The matching on the fabric and colors were from what I have been knowing her in the past 20 years, hope she will like the matching!

优雅绉褶包

趁着我的momentum 还在,赶紧又缝了这一款优雅绉褶包。看似简单可是要固定那绉褶也有一点的难度,幸好也缝得出来了。这也是我老妹下订的其中一款包(她还订了另外两款呢!)

之前在伤脑筋该用什么布来缝这个包, 在网上找了好多遍都没看到合眼缘的。就在我一次和老公瞎逛老街的时候被我遇上了,开心哦!

这个包并不很大,最近做惯了大包的我,做起这个包都有点不习惯哦!还好啦,可以放的下钱包,手机,小包包,一本记事簿和一本书。配上了N 年前在艾玛太太家买的紫提把真的很棒!

包的尺寸:30cm(宽)X 24cm (高)X 14cm (底)

十一月布交流会的i-pad 套

为了向苹果之父致敬,这个月太太就出了这个月的题目 - 举凡是和苹果有相干的都行。这个有点难倒我了,我即没 i-phone, 也没i-pad,就更不用说其他苹果的产品了。原本想逃课,可以如果我这个月再这么做的话,我想有人应该会和我绝交了, 哈哈。。。

因为想来点特别的,所以花了点心思在材料上,用了买了多时却不曾用过的水洗牛皮纸。 只做了个简单干净的i-pad 套, 没有铺棉,没有布衬,就像个不施脂粉的少女般。反正大多数的人都把i-pad 放在皮套里,所以我想不需要再来个双层保护了。




Coffee Flower Clutch (Custom Made Order)

This is a repeat order from a sweet lady who has ordered the Old Nanny coin purse from me (on behalf of her cousin for a grandma). Sample was provided by her and I got the similar pattern online plus my own modification. A simple and nice clutch, hope the grandma will like it!

紫罗兰玫瑰托特包 (客订包) Purple Violet Roses Tote Bag (Custom Made Order)

之前和我订“舞吧,女孩”斜背包的同事对她的包很满意,所以又向我订了一个托特包送给妈妈, 感谢妈妈帮她看顾孩子。她选中的这个包型也是我很钟意的其中一款,正好她选了也让我可以不用等久久就有机会缝这个包。紫蓝玫瑰棉麻是她选的,我配上手染的紫色酒袋布,再加上蓝色的提把。整体上竟然很衬哦!

My colleague whom ordered the "Let's Dance, Ballerinas" sling bag is very satisfied with her bag, so she ordered another tote bag for her mum as the appreciation for taking care her gals. The pattern she chose was one of my favourite lists, so now I do not need to wait for very long to sew this bag, yeh! She chose the violet roses cotton linen and I matched with hand dyed canvas and purposely sewn up a pair of blue handles, what a nice match!

同事要求包包要有很多的口袋和水壶袋,所以我包里包外加上了开放式和拉链口袋。那拉链还是特地订购的紫色拉链哦!包的容量也相当的大,可以装的下很多东西。希望这位auntie 会喜欢这个包包啦!

My colleague requested to have many pockets and a compartment for water bottle, so I added an open & a zip pocket at both inner & outer of the bag. The purple zips were special ordered online just to match up with the bag oh, I like them so much!  The bag size is very big, just per my colleague's wish can fill in lots of thing. Hope the auntie will like this bag too!

10.5cm 老奶奶方型口金包 (客订包) 10.5cm Old Nanny Square Coin Purse (Custom Made Order)

为甚么会把这个口金包取名老奶奶呢?因为这个口金包是订来送给一位90 高龄的老奶奶。90? 我差点以为自己看错哦,人生七十古来希,能活到七十已经是不容易的事了,更别说90。

和这位客户交涉了几轮,才确认了包型,口金框和布料。很对不起这位顾客因为无法在她要求的期限里完成。因为我还不是一个全职的手作人, 无法在那晚上有限的几个小时里把包给完成。

希望这位老奶奶会喜欢我的包包, 也祝她老人家长命百岁!

This coin purse was ordered by a "walked-in" customer for a 90 year old nanny. Wow, 90! I never think of living until that old man and none of my grand parents could have lived at this age! So this must be a healthy old nanny? Hard to believe!

This order was came in with such a short lead time. After few rounds of negotiations, we finally confirmed on the pattern, frame size and fabric to be used. I felt sorry with this customer because couldn't fulfill her order in the requested lead time. No choice as I am not yet a full time crafter, unable to fulfill the order without few hours.

I hope this old nanny will like my coin purse, sincerely wish her healthy and long live!


带我去旅行系列 (相机包和护照套) Bring Me To Travel series (Camera pouch & Passport Holder)

小姑和夫婿明天到北京去感受冬天的滋味。 我祝他们好自为之,因为年尾的北京真的冷的不是盖的。回想起以往我每三个月就必须到北京“报道”的日子,待过两个冬天也感受过下雪的滋味。。。回忆, 原来是如此美妙的事。

护照套是小姑之前要求的,拖到现在才完成。至于相机包则是我看到他们用的那个合成皮包也已经坏的不像样了,就干脆也缝了一个给他们算了。选了这个“带我去旅行”的棉麻配以棕色酒袋布,希望他们会喜欢!也祝他们旅途愉快,希望回来后有好消息啦!

紫色浪漫相机袋 (客订包) Purple Romantic Camera Pouch (Custom Made Order)

同事跟我订了个相机袋,颜色,题材和设计随我, 只要求耐脏。那我就用了她和我一样钟情的紫色, 做了一谢简单的配搭,就是个大方得体的相机袋咯!这个相机袋很好命,再多个十来天就可以和主人飞去香港和澳门了。

My colleague has ordered a camera pouch from me before I left to UK. She left it to me to design for her, the only thing she requested was must not be easy to get dirt. Hehe... I chose our favorite color - purple for this camera pouch, hope she will like it.

舞吧,女孩!加大版侧背包 (客订包) Let's Dance, Ballerinas! Enlarged Sling Bag (Custom Made Order)

又见侧背包了!这是续上回的大头娃娃侧背包后, 第二个款式一样的包。只不过这一回我加了很多口袋 (因为同事要求要有多多的口袋),而且包包也比原本的纸型大了30%。 这个包包是我的一位旧同事订制的,本来我打算在去英国前就把它完成,怎么知道之前的水桶包用了太多的时间,加上赶着收行李,所以唯有把它停下,等英国之旅回来后再继续。

It's sling bag again! This is after the red big head sling bag for my niece, another same design bag. But this round the bag is an enlarged version (enlarged by 30%) and lots and lots of pockets as requested. This sling bag was ordered by my ex-colleague and I supposed to complete it before my UK trip but too bad, plan is always too far to achieve, haha... I had used longer time on the drawstring bag as per expected and also had to pack for my luggage to UK. So no choice and delayed till my way back.

用了艾玛太太家的深灰色酒袋布,配上一群可爱的女孩们,更凸显了这几个女孩们的可爱哟!包里则用了百看不厌的粉色水玉。很担心旧同事能不能够接受这样的配搭呢?幸好早上她在看了包后很开心的 msn 我说她喜欢!这就是做客订包不好受的地方,因为你无法晓得你认为漂亮的东西是否也能得到共鸣。

I matched this Ballerina cotton linen with the dark grey canvas, it really works and the bag looks so nice! And for the inner bag, I chose the pink polka dot cotton. This is the nice natch in my point of view and worried will my idea been accepted too? Thank God that my ex-colleague told me thru msn that she likes this bag so much! This is the con for doing custom made orders, you always feel unsecure until your client give you a LIKE!

好吧,我们来看包吧!
OK, let's look at the bag now!

妹妹的棕色拼接水桶型背包

我实在是不明白这个包的魅力,为何我老妹会连续两次都看上这个包, 而且是在事隔了将近一年后。没办法只好认命把这个她心仪已久的包完成。之前因为道行不高,所以迟迟不敢越雷池, 哈哈。。。现在有点慧根了, 才敢姑且试一试。

因为没有书中那一模一样或类似的布料,唯有自己做拼接了。还好我有很多棕色系列的布哦!

这是个容量很大的包包,可以放的下很多的东西。看着成形的外袋,我也对这个包着迷了!包的底部我做了出芽,这可说是整个包里最难做的部分,原本打算放弃了出芽,可是有想给自己一个挑战, 那下一回的作品才能更进步!

这个包包可以二用,斜背或肩背都行,只要把包带换了就可以了。

包的尺寸:42cm (宽)X 32cm (高) X 14cm (底)
