My latest framed XS

First try...Ana pi frame kat uncle di sunshine. Uncle ni sama ngan index and mus selalu pi tu...Well..after ambil frame tadi.. Ana suka..and memang the workmanship dia very neat.
Xs ni dah lama siap cuma tak frame je... and the framming dari uncle only cost RM68. Kalau buat frame kat tammy may more than hundred. Cuma beza tammy guna bingkai yang kayu i mean real kayu. Uncle just guna bingkai biasa. Sis index dah tengok frame ni di kedai uncle and she personally likes this one.

The second framed xs

Well jam yang Ana buat at last I got it framed kat uncle sunshine...Actually Ana tak berapa berkenan gak ngan colour yang that uncle pilih sebab I'm not pink lover and the colour of the xs tak ada pun unsur pink, And ana pun tak tau why uncle pilih pink color.But ada gak something yang captured my eyes..uncle mixed the pink with purple..hmmm my faberet colour. Tapi setelah diberi komen oleh husband at last Ana mengiakan keserasian colour tu..furthermore my mom agrees with my husband....
Sorry masa Ana ambil pic that frame Ana masih belom buang the plastik wrapper. And memang tak bercadang nak buka plastik tu pun. This clock ana buat nak bagi abang..he is moving to a new house soon.
Masa husband ambil frame kat kedai uncle, uncle pesan kat hubby suruh ana call dia. According to hubby uncle ada cakap ada buyer yang willing to buy that clock..Hmmm tak tau laaa..Wow ada orang berminat! And ana pun called uncle petang tadi. Uncle suggest ana buka harga if ana nak jual....Nak jual ke tak? Nak jual ke tak?? bagi laa opinion...kalau jual yang ni...Ana can sew a new one for my brother...
Anybody know how to calculate if I decided to sell?...hmmmmmmmmmmm

Cuci mata

As my Xs project had finished I mean my SAL...(there's a lot more of WIP)..lets cuci mata with what my sisters did kat umah mak baru-baru ni.
This cheese cake..memang sedap...marbeles!!!!! This was her first tried and terus menjadi..according to her it's easy to prepare...nanti if ada resepi I'll paste it here..so as for this time cuci mata dulu laaaa yer.

Another Beads project.

Baru aje siapkan jahitan manik ni sebelum Ana siapkan SAL. Bukan mine tapi as usual..regular customer. Ana ni bukannya expert, cuma minat and try skill haha haha ...

SAL update

Ana bertungkus lumus tadi kat opis...almaklumlaa market now is downtrend and very quiet...orang tak nak beli share dah...takut.....so secara tak langsung bagi masa untuk ana habiskan my SAL....Kena thanks to the market juga laa ye. And also my exam postponed to december..jadi ada la masa untuk habiskan juga. Hati rasa tak tenang sebab Ana jauh ketinggalan compared to others...Maybe I'm the last to finish it. Tapi tak pe kan..at least its finished!!!
For the SAL ada sikit modification... untuk dot-dot pink tu ana jahit guna manik..sebab memang teringin nak buat beadstitch..So i start with this one...hopefully miss PO tak marah ye....sebab memandai dok modify.
So now....dalam delima nak pi frame kat mana. I was told kat sunshine hasil kerja sama dengan tammy. Jiwa Ana dah serasi dengan cara framming Tammy tapi dia tu mahal sangat. Uncle di sunshine the price not bad..Kena think twice gak ni.

Pizza

Balik keje tadi....memang surprise...anak teruna Ana yang kecik....standard five ..dia buatkan ana pizza..well memamg tak leh nak percaya...tapi itu lah hakikatnya...cuma yang dia frust dia tak jumpa mozarela cheese..yang dia beli kat sunshine cheese apa ntah....tu yang bile dibakar cheese tu tak mencair.
Actually last week dia dah cuba buat pizza ni bawa ke sekolah atas arahan cikgu. (ntah projek apa...just past time kot)...masa tu dia buat dengan maid mak...
Tapi tadi...pizza yang dihasilkan totally dari hasil keje tangan dia....Hmmm rasa pun not bad...boleh harap gak anak teruna ana ni.....Ana terlupa nak tangkap gambar masa pizza lom potong..terlalu excited nak rasa hasil kerja tangan anak...he he he

Kuih Raya 2007

Untuk tahun ni....Ana managed buat kuih ni je.....nak buat banyak jenis rasa malas....
At first awal puasa ingat tak nak buat langsung...tapi atas permintaan anak-anak...dia orang nak bawa ke sekolah....kesian lak rasa.....buat aje laa yang terdaya...

Dalam dok malas tu ada gak yang order jem tart..so untuk tidak menghampakan...buat juga laaa....
ishh mcm mana nak masuk slide show dr photobucket kat sini...?
Kuih bunga cina...resepi turun menurun....buat kuih ni masih lagi under supervision mak. selalu guna butter jenis golden churn tp thus time guna butter cup. Tu yang hasil kureng sikit.

Biskut quaker oat.....both of my kids suka.....so kena buat laaa....biskut bi senang sebab tak pakai tepung
Biskut tart rose....I ambil resepi dari warga cari.....ok la belum rasa lagi ni......

Biskut cokelat chips..... Baca preview dari forum cari.com most yang dah cuba cakap this biscuits taste good...so why not I try....And the result.....memang sedap

Shortbread..... Dah 4 5 kali buat biskut ni.....tapi hasil nyer masih kurang memuaskan.. ada je masalah problem. Kali masala bila dah keluarkan cutter, cokelat sememeh kat tebing biskut. Previous time buat tak macam ni....Nevermind I'll try later again and again.... Any how anak cakap.....hmmmm sedap bu! so tak ada laaa rasa frust sangat.

Snow almond......Resepi ambil dari forum cari gak.....Ana decided nak buat ni pun sebab banyak komen cakap this biskut sedap.Anda tak akan menyesal mencubanya.....Hubby likes this biskut very very much.

Jem tart...... walaupun tahun ni awal puasa, ana dah decide tak nak buat jem tat...tapi kesian lak.....my few ex staffs merayu rayu nak...kakak pun minta ana buat kan.....hmmmmm kena laaa buat.......

Biskut yang tak termasuk dalam senarai tahun ..almond london dan biskut aikrim.....dah cemuih dah..buat biskut ni.....My son merayu gak....tapi sorry sayang...ibu tak termakan rayuan mu........bukannya apa.....tepung ada lagi stok...tapi cooking cokelat dah tinggal tak ada...tak kuasa dah nak pi beli....... Lain kali yek!

HARDANGER

HARDANGER he he he....last saturday.... I have started doing my first handanger...very excited to start this....eventough I have bought all the necessaries quite sometimes...
Actually I dont really have any suitable pattern for hardanger...just guidance from the nordic...hardanger 101 and also my enxyclopedia book. Jealous gak tengok member lain yang mixed and matched..bab ni memang Ana selalu fail. Ana memang tak pandai nak mix and match... So buat sikit hardanger tu tu just kerana excited bab nak memotong benang tu... Ana guna benang cotton perle #5....dmc.... Huh..!! Lama gak nak buat ni.... buat first round kena buka balik sebab tak balance...counting lari laaa!!!!! then buat lagi....berdebar gak bab nak memotong....Main potong je...rasa-rasa betul la kot....tak tau le ! Conclusion..need more practise to make it perfect..First try mesti ada cacat cela.
Ni yang belum dipotong............



Ingatkan pattern hardanger ni besar tapi rupanya kecil je...tu le bab nak menokok menambah tu yang tak pandai...nanti la dulu tunggu ilham mai...tunggu next saturday lak...tapi this coming saturday...busy ngan hari penyampaian hadiah sekolah anak la pulak!...anyway I'll try....berkobar gak....maklum le benda baru....weekdays...tak dapat nak buat.....!!!!!

Ini yang telah dipotong ...maaf gambar kurang memuaskan....jangan betulkan pc anda.....org yang tangkap gambar yang tak mahir...

After this ada lagi satu yang Ana buat ...., pic tak snap lagi ....camera bateri kong !...This one also from the same nordic but this one heart shape.... ingat nak buat fob. Nanti le bila senang I'll paste the photo here......
Sebagaimana dijanjikan...ni hah ...second try....






Ini lak... fob yang hampir siap...........

Sepi buat seketika

Well it's been quite sometimes Ana tak update my blog.....sebab tak ada new things..or in more correct word Ana busy sangat kat opis.....

Last two weeks Ana went to Penang Road...memang selalu pi Komtar pun...so di kepala just nak survey tengok kat kedai di Penang Road ada jual tak pin yang macam mus beli dari kl tu...memang tak plan nak beli pun sebab as for Ana ..... Ana tak tau nak buat apa ngan all the pins tu..

Bila sampai kat kedai tu....wah! memang ada.....ada empat pattern lagi...daun, bintang, bunga and bentuk love....satu RM1.50.......secara tak semena terus Ana suruh amoi tu ambil and bungkus. I bought 1 each...he he he....what happened to me? Beli benda untuk disimpan uh uh....maybe as a gift kot....simpan je dulu.

Then cross the road..pi kedai uncle...(kedai yang mus dok beli bobbin)....Ana bought a few of perle thread..ni memang nak buat hardanger tapi tak tau bila nak start lagi.....rasa macam nak cuba tapi bila baca blog others memang harDANGER jadi cuak juga.....Kain linen ada balance sikit lepas buat jam tu...think enough that small portion for the first hardanger tu..hope so..

Ni je barang-barang yang Ana beli tu....sikit je...sebabnya tak ada plan nak buat apa lagi ngan benda tu..

Kek Cokelat Kukus

Last weekends...tak buat apa....Gi umah mak...bila sampai tengok ada cokelat kek kukus ni...

Kek ni memang kami sekeluarga suka buat sebab senang..QUICK n EASY....and also yummy....

I find it fun sewing on linen Best laaa. thanks Yasmin for selling me this kain and lebih tepat lagi..for introducing me the LINEN kain...Before this mana kenal dengan kain ni...just on aida je... . The linen that i bought..is raw color.....my hubby said macam guni and my friend kat office gelakkan I..sebab dia cakap kain ni kaler macam Chinese guna masa funeral sebai atas bahu...ALAMAK...tapi never mind...I LIKE!...

SAL AS AT 1st June 2007

Simple Project..Express!!!

Ni simple project yang ana buat weekends baru ni. Eventough ana terlalu tied up dengan keje tapi Ana kena buat gak...sebab ni nak bagi kat orang as a token of appreciation......thank you friend.
Framming dia...agak kurang sikit nampak memang le canttik tapi if di teliti...ada kekurangan ..his workmanship is so so sahaja..not to compare dengan tammy laa
cara dia letak mounting board to tak balance and dia tarik kain tu pun tak even.....tak pe laaa. I hope she likes it

MDSE
For the month of Mei…..our activities is Mothers day stash exchange. We need to complete it by 9th of mei and post it out so that must reach to our partner not later than 13th of Mei 2007. This time my partner is Kak Ros. Kak Ros is well known as Paula Vaughan fan. She loves to stitch PV’s design. Well ….me..after seeing the PV pattern I also fall in love …but then..its too complicated and also…….huh!!!!! mencabar sungguh!

So…..I have stitched to a Book mark to kak Ros. It’s a simple bookmark. I took the pattern from my first cross stitch book ( before this I usually buy novels, but now I started to buy magazines and books related to cross stitch). Its Donna Coolers book….I also did keychain for her….just a simple one also. At that time I was very busy at office and don’t have enough time to sew at office. Market was doing good at that time…huh finally….!!
I added some stuff here and there…and made her a box and also a simple card……everything hand made. I hope kak ros will like it.


MDSE
My parter is Elinatra dr Sabah...tu!!!!!
Look what I have received from elin?????????!!!!!
Huh…first time when the box received I felt very happy. Once opened, I cannot say anything!…Lidah kelu tanpa kata .So may stashes is inside that box. HMMMM…..cotton two pieces, framed cross stitch (happy mama’s day), bracelet ( I like so much), buttons, designs from dmc, dmc tread, beads, huh..a lot….. Thanks elin..thanks so much……!!!!!!!!

BISCORNU

Biscornu...................


I joined biscornu exchange organised by cari.com forum....and my partner was kakct...well before buat biscornu ni or secara tepatnya before ana kenal dengan forum about cross stitch ni never come across my mind apa tu BISCORNU...dengar pun pelik kan....tapi bila tengok ishh macam lawa la pulak...so I have decided to join them with the exchange. Actually join ni pun because my first project with the warga forum cari which was FOB exchange was a succesfull project....so I pun join laa buat biscornu ni for my partner. Kak ct was selected to be my partner secara undian ( thanks mus...sbb jadi good PO)..

It takes....almost a week dok fikir apa yang patut ana buat untuk kakct so that dia akan berbesar hati terima the exchange.....Pattern memang tak ada dalam simpanan at that time....so apa lagi surf je...then jumpa satu web page...pic biscornu...tapi tak ada lak pattern ...ana print je...and terkial kial le kira kotak...untuk dijahit....berapa kali jahit salah jahit salah...tak balance...at last...siap juga laa that biscornu.....Ana buat color biru cos kakct prefered blue or red....

Sebagai tambahan...ana cuba buat CUBE Keychain....ni pun first time try.....basic buat fob dah ada...so....cuba je buat keychain tu....well.....tu laa hasilnya....Alhamdulillah....siap juga my biscournu for the BISCORNU EXCHANGE

My partner untuk Biscornu ni lak ialah Index....The day Ana received her gift...I cannot say a word..and keep on smiling and ....ya Allah..tak dapat buat keje..asyik asyik tarik laci ngendap biscournu family ....rasa tak dapat nak lepaskan pandangan...Huh! Superb laa Index...And memang Index ni...creative, rajin, superb, ishh tak terkata...Reasons why index bagi Ana banyak sangat and as a family tu sebab February ...is the month of my birthday..thanks Index...I really love it....WALLA!!!!

Now let me share what I have received from Index....let you all judge it
