Back to Favorite Things on Saturday - Part 2

Our ladies met up as planned that Saturday night and as usual, we always started up with food, food and more food in mind! So, we had our Dim-Sum Dinner at Lotus Restaurant. Dishes that we all picked were very very tasty especially when one is hungry. LOL!


While enjoying dinner we talked about our sewing and quilting and everyone is talking at once; offering advices and listening to your personal problems until at the end our new lady friend finds it not as easy as it seems to learn quilting after all. So, naturally she declined to join our group! Well, we nevertheless hope she will change her mind in due time; fingers crossed.


Our new project in mind is trying our hands on "Japanese Quilting". One of our lady friend had hers completed and gave the quilt to her brother for him to hang in his new home.


The next day we made a visit to our lady tutor to buy new fabrics (mostly batik) for our Japanese quilt. I've started mine with a very small block piece and I find it very easy to do the running stitches, however the applique pieces are quite challenging.


I will include the quilt picture here once I finished the quilt top. So, happy quilting and stay happy.

Back to Favorite Things on Sunday - Part 1



My oh my! After another long break, it's back to do a little posting again. How time passed and as usual; so much to do with so little time.

Well, just a little update on my quilting progress; it's slow but surely. Our quilters are into Japanese quiltings and that's another WIP.

And just today I started a new project (a wall hanging) for my sister who is coming from KL this end August. It's a simple quilt and I hope I can get it completed before she comes. LOL!

Happy Quilting to all quilters and have fun!
