Preps for X'Mas 2007

i've been dying to post pics of x'mas gifts i made this year for frens and loved ones even before the party on sat but couldnt cos its supposed to be a *duh* surprise. anyway the party at vivien's new home was great. (her home is super gorgeous btw.) all 6 of us managed to make time to gather for a celebration, including our ever-busy ms connie tan. heh. shall post pics on the party when i get them.

coming back, gifts I made. (ya, i am assuming the role of a self-indulgent braggart for today.) i remember last year, i was into graphic designing and made some half-assed frames. and ever since i've learnt to dressmake, i've got this crazy urge to sew something. and for all i noe, i'll probably make a stool or table if im into carpentry next year. so as u can tell, im actually gg thru a phase and although each phase doesnt live long, i do believe this one im currently in could last. well, at least till im done with all the fabric i've bought so far. and to speed up tt process, i've found some other use for it.

jasmine says they look good enough to be put on sale. im flattered but i think not. making 12 is just enough to kill me. besides, buttons, laces and ribbons arent exactly cheap. but having said that, i have enjoyed the nites of making each of these, surrounded by fabric, needles, ribbons and threads, and with leslie cheung singing in the background. all i did lack was a rocking chair and a black tomcat sleeping on my lap to qualify as grans. really really.
