Small competition of  sprint runs and hill runs, push up, front squart and strength workout... on 19/4/2014. - Had managed to compete with others and won a pair of Skechers ultra  running shoes Cost RM399.

SHOULDER BAG

Applique is always my favourite work. The term applique is French (oui!) means 

'to apply' bits of fabrics to the top of other fabric and stitched by hand or machine. It can be any shape, enabling quilters to use curved designs .

Added a look like round Strips shirt Pocket to the front and i apply a lovely doll ( Doll pattern @ Shinnieの精靈異想世界~~) to the Japan Yarn Dyed fabric. 

Lastly, To Jasmine.

 with my sincerely thank you for your tolerate on my delay. 



Fabric : Strictly imported Japan Yarn Dyed.
Handle: Leather.
Another person , Dodo that i would like to thanks her for her kindness to bring in the Leather handle from Taiwan.
