yoho! I need more comments hahaha

Ya, pretty small pc esp for those exp ones. They are Japanese fabrics :P Some are like Europe style but they are all Japanese fabrics. I really sucks at my sewing leh. I am now practising. But lack of time too.

Buying beautiful fabrics make me wonder, why do i get embroidery machine?!?

I just buy enough fabrics for this time round cause I plan to do big bags when I tried with cheap/discarded clothes.

If i master my sewing skill, then do tiny thing for u? hehe. Yesterday tried doing a coin purse kind of zip and really failed badly.

I didnt know new fabrics will turn color. I thought its when we start wearing or using it, then put aside will cause color to fade? Right now they are keep in plastic bags and keep under container, away from light. :P

Need more comments? Tell your friends lor :D

Ya, yours definitely look more jap than 'angmoh' style :)

Yeap, they do turn colour, but not so bad if they're not washed yet. However, the lighter colour ones will be more likely to be hit lor. And yes, do keep them the way you're doing now, to prolong its life-span :)

oh, i'm sooo looking fwd to my gifts from u, hahaha
