Macet ?


Hola ...

Pas lagi enak enaknya ngerjain Mug Rug untuk Swap, lagi nge 'machine quilt' tiba tiba macet di tengah tengah. si even foot atau walking footnya nggak mau 'walking' alias nggak mau narik kainnya, jadi aja itu jarum njahit terus kecil keciiiil jelek banget ...

Setelah di amat amati ternyata gagang si walking foot ngak mau turun, alias tetep aja di atas kayakgambar ini.


di gambar ini sih udah agak turun, pas macet tadi dia bener benernggantung diem diatas. Yang seharusnya kan dia nempeldi bar bawahnya itu dan ikut naik turun sambil narik kainnya.



Hasil jahitannya jadi jelek banget kayak gambar diatas. Setelah di cek ternyata itu kait/ gagang si walking foot seret banget jadi aja macet di atas. 
Solusinya : semprot pake WD-40 ini, hasilnya si kait lemes kembali.


Atau kalau nggak punya si WD-40 bisa juga pake kontak cleaner ini.. semprot dikit daaan ... lancar lagi.


Semoga bermanfaat ..

Slipper biru merah


Dapet pola dari internet pas lagi browsing2 ... eh sekarang dicari lagi udah ilang gak inget lagi apa nama polanya, apa link nya ... widiiiih 

Pertama lihat langsung suka warnanya, biru muda dengan merah nampak cerah banget kan .. apalagi bunga bunga kecil kecil ituh ..

Tapi ukurannya lebih kecil dari yang biasa aku bikin, jadi kalau dipakai benangnya akan nampak agak agak jarang. Kecuali kalau kakinya agak kecil.
Ini untuk ukuran 5 - 6 atau 36 - 37 


This slipper is also available at Patch Cozy n'Craft Jakarta

Bandana for baby


Membuat barang barang aksesories untuk baby memang menggemaskan. Once you do it you can not stop ... pengen lagi lagi dan lagi 

Awalnya mau bagi bagi untuk baby baby cute  di group Arisan Rempong, lah kok pengen bikin lagi .. so buat lagi 3 biji untuk di taruh di toko di Jakarta.


Pake softy cotton / Thalenta Star warna warni, dan 4mm hook 
Polanya ? dari japanese pattern yang agak agak di modified 
Nah cari karetnya ini yg belum nemu di KL, itu juga dapetnya dari saung Thalenta di Surabaya

These cute baby bandana are  available at Patch Cozy n Craft Jakarta 

White Capelet


I felt in love at the first sight with this pattern, it's from japanese pattern book

I was so excited doing it, until when it's half finish my son said ..Ibu, it is like a tablecloth .. and my husband said ... round tablecloth ... *sob sob*



... dan hilanglah segala semangat buat nyelesaiin capelet ini ... numpuk di pojokan    .. padahal sudah tinggal last row


But .... sayang banget gak di selesaikan .. kan tinggal dikiiiit lagi, maka ngebutlah nyelesaikannya.

Cantik sih kalau dipakai dengan jilbab pendek, tapi kok belum PD makenya yaaa ?
Masih kebayang pake taplak meja di badan gitu lho ... :P

Menyeli hati sanubariku

Oh warna warnaaaa ....

Dino Might baby blanket



Erni melahirkan sudah dari Desember lalu, belum juga dibuatkan baby quiltnya ...
And last week just heard that this March she will move back to Indonesia for good ...

Woooaa ... buka buka buku, akhirnya pilihan jatuh di Dino might ini ..


Pilih pilih kain ... background pake Bali batik, and the rest are cotton from Bandung ..

Pattern from this book : Cherised Quilt for babies and kids, Better homes and garden 


Baby quilt yang ini termasuk kilat ngerjainnya ... cuma 2 hari selesai ...!!

Hari pertama motong motong, malem njahit quilt topnya, hari kedua nge quilt dan binding, malem masang applique dinonya... pagi pagi sudah harus diserahkan ke Erni ...

Alhamdulillah selesai ...


Selamat jalan Erni, semoga selalu dalam lindungan Allah dimanapun berada, aamiin ...


*just realized that I forgot to sew the dino's eyes ....*

Busy bee ..


Been a bit busy these few days ..
I almost forgot to make these mug rug swap, I thought the deadline was end of February, ternyata deadline kirimnya 11 march..

Plan to send them tomorrow and hope that my partner will like them.




My sister called last week and asked me to make 50 doilies for May .. oh well ... kena ngebut buatnya.

This doily is from Thata Pang's first book, ethnic doily, using Indonesian mixcotton yarn and katun bali, hook size 4.


This one is my eksperiment using katun bali and the pattern is from Japanese book which I don't know the title ..


Keep yourfinger dancing ...
