Convertible

Been wanting so long to make this bag,...well at last it's done. Still the outcome is not like what I expected. Need lots of restructuring to improve the total look. The fabric treatment need to change, however the leather trimmings and base is satisfying.

Here, my lovely Jasmine, modelling the bag in a sling manner. Bag look a little bit large on this petite model.

Here, the bag is worn cross-body.

Bag measure - 12''L x 5" W x 14 1/2" H.
Leather trimmings are of coffee and grey suede.
Base is full grey suede leather.



















Zips at the side, enables the bag to convert.
You can wear it deep or shallow.















When fold out, reveal the quilted lining (grey cotton contribution from Aida). Quilting design, something I pick up from the Vistana gatherings.

Looking forward to make the improved version, or maybe it'll be a little while longer. I'm already thinking of making a new design. Will post it as soon as I get it done.

Quilted Bag

Hi!!! At last,.. after a really long break from bloging, I am happy to post this new collection.
Been wanting to try a messenger bag, I think I am successful with this one.









4" x4" patchwork of soft colors quilted vertically with 1/2" intervals. Chose to quilt this way to speed up and the simplicity makes the bag pleasant to look at, considering the many component sewn together.





















Lining is of green cotton completed with a zip-up pocket, open pocket and a h/phone slot.






















Bag base is of coffee brown leather. Leather base contributes to hold the shape and durability.
All round leather trimming outlined the whole bag and envelopes the multicolored surfaces.
Long strap of woven cotton enables bag to be worn sling or cross body.

Now the bag belongs to Qila. Hope you enjoy it sayang.










Quilted top on my favourite Fav pattern.
Colors here are soft and earthly.
I use blue suede leather for the base to liven up the the patchwork body.
Quilting are vertical 1/2" intervals.
Shoulder strap and top trimmings are of coffee colord leather.




















Quilted Fav modeled by Alia.

I was shopping for songket sampin for Alia,.... to give to her New Zealand friends when I found this vintage looking, sweet pink songket with gold thread.

Made it into this beautiful box.

A piece of sampin can clad 2 box of this dimension.

Fresh green

A group of us, mothers from the kid's school, pool in for a gift, for a friend who is going to perform the umrah. Green is the receiver's favourite color, so I put together this gift.

Since she's going with her husband, we provide for both. A piece of telekung for her and a piece of kain pelekat for him

I wanted to create a gift that will last, so I decided to make a box that she can use after the content is taken out.
Box lid is clad with mint green paisley printed canvas. Box bottom is clad with lime green textile suede. Box measures 30 cm x 23 cm x 8 cm.

Gift viewed from all angle.

I want that all angle look interesting and attractive. Here, I use fresh potted plants. They help to add freshness and crisp to the ensemble.
