The Christmas Month




This December was almost as busy as the last. After I presented & submitted my garment design, I had a little bit of breathing gap before I went on a trip to Amsterdam & Brussels.






















It was a fulfilling time with my in-laws. We experienced love that reflects the Christmas spirit. How wonderful!

I managed to make some Christmas postcards & cards for my folks and delivered them in time. I realized how I missed making cards.




I look forward to some blessed restful time at cosy home with my hubby this Christmas. As the London public transports & eateries would be down on Christmas Day, we would definitely stock up our fridge. We won't want to be stuck at home with no food! Ahaks.

Merry Christmas, bloggers.

My Life-size Origami Skirt


The fashion design presentation day cum CRIT for my precious-blood-and-sweat garment came (literally meant the 'blood' bit - poked my fingers with the sewing needle umpteen times). It would be an understatement to say I was nervous. But I was really prepared & fortunately the judges were pleased with my presentation & design concept.

I shan't bore you with the whole garment making details. So, let's let the photos do the talking...



    
       
















        



What do you think?





Apparently, my work has been featured on the design school's website, blog & tumbler.



All in all, I think my ability to produce a presentation book and the right choice of concept made it to impress all members of the floor. I would say I could do with more practise on sewing manually & with the machine. :)

Mission Accomplished.
