My Winter Livingroom

*** After ***
I love Winter, I love the coldness, I love dringking hot tea in this cold weather.
I love wearing nice and warm sweaters.
Inside of my house is cold because I rarely turn on the heater because I hate warm air coming out.

 I'd rather wear sweater and drink hot tea or coffee instead.
"Chris always says it's cold here, Jamie" 

 and I say " 'cause you are wearing shorts". haha, I'm so cold and selfish.

This is my winter livingroom.
What do you think?
Chris and I love this way.
Merry Christmas,everybody!!

Design 1000 Year Calendar

I have been thinking about creating Calander of my own for years.
Finally I started to design it
 using all my collections and my ideas.


Sometimes I have too much ideas .
I can't think right.
Everything is massed up crazy.
So I started with simple patchwork design that I already designed before.
And add up one by one.


added outterlines board on top and the sides.
I scanned and printed out it.
And then I cut heart shape and square fabric
 and I sew it on the paper.
and scaned and printed out this one. 


Everything was perfect as the way I wanted.
Next , I handwritten the title and months.
I like this font.

and then stamped some sewing icon and tiny leaves.
Outlined just like Running stitches and quilting Lines.

This one is ..I covered with my logo to avoid free print here..
Now I can print this for 1000 years !! Yeah.
There is no date or monthly title.
You circle the month and write the year on the heart patch.
Actual printed one is like really sweet pastel patchork quilt.








The one below is the foundation of  July.
Using mason jar patterns .
Half way done.

Lovely Embroidery Brooch For Autumn

 My new project of this Autumn.
**Lovely Feminine Brooch **

 I once made a brooch for my mother.
It was long time ago.
 I made it with freshwater peearl and gold branch at that time.
Only one kind of brooch fro my mom.
This time I designed embroidery pattern.
simple daisy flower and my loving theme "love"

I remember the Beatles song.
"Love is Real"
What a simple line but we could think a lot 
"About love".


Again Autumn just came in my back yard.
I reallly enjoy the coloring of nature.
All the colored and fallen leaves inspired me.


I selected light pink and Olive green linen fabric background.
hand-embroidered " Love is Real" with light violet thread. 
and Daisy with yellow, green, and brown thread.
I need the final touch something sparkling but it should be humble at the same time.

So I place the Swarovski violet and yellow color AB Crystal from my bead collection.

The brooch is absoutely gorgeous.
Lovely ....

Purple Glass Flower

A combination of Czech glass flower, yellow Agate ,and chains.
Purple Flower Bracelet is one of my favorite from 
the 2013 Autumn Collection of mine.

The Czech flower is glowing with goldy yellow metalic scent.
So it perfectly plays around the yellow natural gemstone.
The gemstone has natural crack inside, 
 See through  the nature craftwork.


I finidhed this with mini gold Agata charm clasp 
to make it delicate and cute atmosphere.
This bracelet has been praised by many 
so I list it this year Autumn collection again.

You can see the listings on my etsy shop.

Moonlights - Autumn Collection 2014

 Just finished my new Autumn collection jewelry photo shop.
Such a delicious eye candies.
I love every each of them.
Main theme material is Fresh water pearl- free formed Zibra pattern. 
While being busy preparing and packing  to move to my new house,
I had this colletion idea in my mind and had to finish them.
 Zibra pattern free form Fresh water pearl is all different natural shapes.
There is no identical shape.
So I combined several similar shapes and patterns, made a few set.
I made with gunmetal , gold plated , and silver plated wires to unique pairs of earrings.
They are glowing under the sunshine and night lights.
Perfect for a beautiful beach style bridesmaids set.
 Florite teardrop set is my love here.
So romantic, elegant, and vintage mode.
I wire wrapped and linked with yellow Agate for the necklace.
Only one set for wedding or special days.

Pink Heart Handmade Patchwork Cosmetic Pouch

Pink Heart Cosmetic Pouch instructions is one of  my steady seller
 on my Etsy shop.
I first made this last Spring (2013) by using stash but soon I had to order more fabric for my custom orders.
The instructions are made later on April 2014.
And it sells as  instant downloadable PDF file and JPG files.
making the pouch is a piece if cake for me.
Because I have been made these pouches for over 20 years.
It was one of my first project when I was a beginner quilter on the early 1990.
I soon fell in love with making this, L made all big holiday gifts
 for all my family and friends,
I mean for girls.
My sister has 3 pouches I made.
They are all made in around late 1990.
Guess what? she is still using them and they are still very very good condition.
Of course my sister is extra clean and keeping things well person.
As I mentioned that making pouches is a piece of cake.
I can make 3 pouch in one day.
Well, for preparing instructions, God  I'm telling you that  I worked a looot!!
Every step of process I took photos, hundreds of photos.
Then start to photo-shop for days.
And then Ordering the photos, describing instructions one by one. 
It was not easy job.
Simply I put a lot of effort into making this instructions.
I really like to do things done by myself as much as handcrafting.


The last thing I prepared is Kit set.
It's my favorite part.
When I prepared this Kit and took photos, I was happy for my customer
s who will open and big smile seeing this.
Yeah! I love kit , ordering quilt kit feels me like  I already made them.
So I know about sewing kit well.
I hope everybody enjoy my pouch Kit.
Now they are on  store.
I also made mini partial tutorial video for this.
The link is provided on the instructions.
