Finally, I'm updating my blog again...
My hibernation period is over as spring is on its way now.......
Yeyy!!! It's the season when flowers start blooming again...
It's been really that long since my last update....omigosh!
Well, nothing much to post in here since most of the items are from the previous designs , fulfilling my customers' orders.
Just recently, I managed to get away from my normal routine n try out this 2 new designs in teapots-A Pot of Tea Brings Friends Together and Pour a Cup of Kindness.
These teapots are specially made for my dearest friend in Singapore.And guess what, it took me nearly a month to come up with the idea!
I hope that everyone will like these 2 designs , the roses are still of the same technique though....

I guess all of my friends are still enjoying their long 'raya' holidays and the' food fiesta'... Ermmm, my 'raya' is not so joyous this year as there is no 'balik kampong' agenda , no visiting to relatives and of coz not much of a 'food fiesta'.......
Anyway....the stitching still goes on...
I've just started a ribbon embroidery group in facebook , is an international group where anyone from anywhere around the globe is invited to join and share her work in RE .
Basically, the idea is to share my work with the rest of the world ,as there are many requests from friends outside Malaysia who are asking me to do so.
However,I really hope to hear the feedback from local RE enthusiasts as well as international , whether they are profesional embroiderers or just a beginner
Here are steps to get in there:
1) go to www.facebook.com 2)Open up an account there(sign up) 3)Add me- Umi Kalsom(optional-can go direct to the group) 4)Find the group: Ribbon Embroidery for all occasion , and join
Since this is an open group, anybody can join in there
Till then, "Salam Hari Raya' to all Muslim stitching friends.... Happy stitching
