Hey, A Blue Polka Tote Bag!

 I have some fabrics, and I imagined a big blue polka tote bag would be nice to be my hand-sewing collection for this month. But I made mistakes in cutting the fabric, oh I really didn't pay attention to the pattern size. It means that I was too confidence in cutting the fabric, gosh!

And this is it! The blue polka tote bag. Mini!

I didn't get a big tote instead. But that's okay, at least I can put my small laptop in this small tote bag. And now, I'm just sort of thinking to make another tote bags, hopefully I'll get another good mood (again) :)

yay! there's a tree in our house

We'd love to have a tree in our house.

and yes, we have it now :)

paint paint paint!

 And we can do many things under the tree;

read some books 

enjoy a picnic-time

write a story :)

do another things (do the embroidery, sew or play guitar)

and we can also have a date-time under the tree :p

Oh, I smell summer!

The waving grass, the songs of cicadas, the melting ice creams, the smell of the sun in your hair, the sweat drops, the children' laugh, the sunbathing cats, the beaches and the wind, the sands and the fishermen, the full moon and the hooting owl, the falling leaves... It's summer.

Hand sewing dress

Waiting is a cheesy thing. not always actually. But when you want something so bad, and you can't get it for a particular time, it means cheesy :P

I haven't got the sewing machine but I really want to make those abandoned fabrics turn in to some things. (clothes, bags, pouches etc)

So, I decided to sew a dress. I made it in three days. And I had one- googling day (on that day, I was very busy googling for some hotels for my next trip. so I left the dress - work) so it should be finished in two days with hand sewing. And this is it... my first -hand sewing- dress.

These are the patterns of the dress.

And this is the dress. I add a white lace and put the label :)

something that ordinary will become extraordinary when we consider it as an extraordinary thing :)

me and the embroidery #3

I was sort of thinking about my old red-sweater I owned when I was child. I got it from my old aunt  (in Yogyakarta) That's not for my B'day gift anyway, it's just sort of a trip-gift from her. oh I really miss that old thing as much as I miss my old aunt. 

And sure, I  didn't successfully wear even one of my sweater while I was sick. - I got cough for several days. It's so lousy because I couldn't remove the phlegm. It was stuck in my lung and made me hard to breath. I got fever then, and I lose a million - to do anything  moods as well. It's so terrible spending my days in bed and doing nothing. And after having those  -not in the mood - days, I finally finished the Blossom May :)

me and the embroidery #2

I finish my new 'jumping' embroidery today. I have to say that: actually there is a pretty unfinished embroidery, but i decided to jump to (another) this embroidery because I -at that time- got the pop-up new idea in my brain after seeing my old black-suede shoes in the shoe box. 

and apologize me when you see the blurry pictures. I accompanied by (really) a not-good hand pocket camera. 

me and the embroidery

My husband was surprised at the beginning when he saw the hidden box of yarns in our luggage (the night before leaving for Magelang) But after having a little agreement, I decided to bring the box :)

my 'other' drawings

not such beautiful drawings, at least I drew by my self. 

El Capitain

Have you ever heard about the southern beach's mythical story in Indonesia? Yeah, it's a bit horror and creepy. The all of southern beaches has one 'the most ever lasting and creepiest' story of The Queen of southern beach. But let's forget about the horry dready mystery..

How about the Southern Beach Terror? Have you ever heard?
You might think of a 'terror and dreadful things' happen in southern beach (or maybe the queen has doing something bad, there). But, it's about a creepy sound of a band from Yogyakarta, Indonesia, yeah that's actually a name of a band, actually one of my fave band, and actually umm my husband's band :D

I'm not going to write the band review but I guarantee when you listen to their songs, you would ride the wildest waves at the southern beach. http://www.myspace.com/thesouthernbeachterror

 El Captain of Southern Beach Terror

 and it was his victory too when he was slimmer (^.^) and concerned to his another-band :p

what a big beerbelly

My husband isn't a horror man (just lil bit scary hahaha). He's a nice guy who marry me with love and all his countless good traits. I always support him for all the good things although sometimes he is too lazy to do anything :p. No words to say except I love him so much :)
