Frame from IKEA


I went to IKEA last saturday, and got these two frames. One is for my crochet and one for my ribbon embroidery.

I know I should choose the black one instead of this white frame. But the first idea is for the crochet only, and I just found this ribbon embroidery in my box, so there it is....

The crochet is for my friend who will move to Thailand this March, hope she'll like it.

The silk ribbon embroidery is for my new sewing room, I think....

Batik long skirt


I do not remember when was the last time I sew my dress. I think it was when my second son was 2 years old, and now he is 7.

Looked at this sarong make me want to make a long skirt, but I complitely forget how to do it. So last Friday I borrowed mbak Geulis's sewing book and after finishing my housework on Saturday I started to do it.
Well, ... you know, my size has changed a lot....!!! I won't tell you, it's so embarrasing........
And I managed to do it, eventhough the zip was not sewed properly, but yes... I still can do it.
