Sedihnya....
When i created this blog it was solely for the purpose of my stitching hobby.... but something happened yesterday n i just have to write down my thoughts...

I wasn't feeling well so when moth offered to pick up daughter no 2 from school of course I said yes. Then it started to rain , he didn't want to get wet cos dia senang demam kalau kena hujan. So I said I would go too, he drives n I go down at the school.

Keluar rumah, belok kanan.... baru nak belok kiri.... along came this Kelisa n banged into us...

Why oh why? This is the 2nd time in 6 months... my poor car. But I cannot complain, ini semua
kehendak Tuhan, it's just that I can't help feeling sad.


Want to see the damage?


So now poor car is in the workshop again for who knows how long. Tapi syukur alhamdulillah we were not hurt...

Not too bad...

I thought I didn't get too much done last week but after comparing the 2 photos all I can say is not too bad for a slow n steady stitcher like me....

Somehow last week was not a good week, too lazy to do anything... trying to make amends this week but it's soooo hot.... yeah yeah blame it on the weather!

Purr-fect Patterns

This is my current project. In all honesty this quilt was so so so HARD to do. So many colors n so many quarter stitches. I had to put it away for a while after getting all the color parts done. But i picked it up again yesterday n have started on the chair...

One Fine Day

I've actually done it...created my blog! Step one is complete. That was the easy part...
I've been stitching on and off for a long time but patterns were hard to come by back then...haha.

Then one fine day in the year 2000 I came across this book Preserved in Time by Paula Vaughan, I fell in love immediately... n haven't stopped cross stitching since.
Now I've discovered sewing accessories n specialty stitches... they're fun to stitch n faster to complete and I've taken part in a few exchanges too and made stitching friends along the way.

So welcome to my blog....
