chocolate peanut butter yummm

hi, i know, haven't been blogging for a while now hehe. Been busy lately, well not busy doing house chores or anything but pretty much been sewing and sewing and sewing lately hihihi. My other half is very very very nice to me lately, must I say I was really spoiled by him. He bought me an Ipad as a surprise last week so I have been pretty much dwelling on that gadget. It was not able to be jailbreak (yet) but I don't really care somehow, that gadget was perfect for me. It is sooooo light so it feels like nothing inside my handbag and I can browse every single blogs I love everywhere, so yayness!!! So because I was so in love with this case, I was so determined to make the case/cover for this new gadget of mine. After doing some browsing thru etsy, I finally decide to try to make and sew my own case (it cost quiet exxy in etsy and then tax n yada yada hence "u can make your own ipad case" mode is on). I got the idea from Elizabeth David Design on etsy and here is her version of ipad case



and my version of the case...




I could definitely say I failed in making this case because the ipad didn't fit quiet nice in the case. I got better ideas for the next ipad case, but unfortunately I dont have enough cotton batt and etc and the fabric as well as supply store are close now due to Ied holiday, so I have to wait patiently.




and you know what I went to Aksara last week as well and boy ph boy I bought the Print and Pattern Book by Bowie Style from print and pattern blog and I must say, I never love a book that much for a while now. Everything inside that book amazed me and by amazed me I mean seriously amazed me, they have bold colors, great great illustration and all so it's a very-very good source for inspiration =) highly recommend this book!




Another highlight is I met lia from lia's space and she is berry berry niceeeeee. I love her instantly, she is so warm and informative must I say hehehe and to top it all she gave me my very own diaper pouch with extra pressie along with it (some of her gocco print cards and a patchwork pouch), see now why I lurf herr? hihihiii...

I also got some books from kinokuniya thanks to my hubs. He really does support me in this new hobby of mine, thank you dear, it means a lot for me =)

Due to the too yellowish lighting in my apt, I will take pics of lia's pouch and books from hubs tomorrow, adioss
