Normally when people plan trips, there'll be pre-shopping for stuff to bring on the trip. Me on the other hand, decided to make stuff for my trip. [just because i need to save so that i can do a little bit of shopping there. ;) ]
so, 1st, a baby carrier. I was [still am] undecided if I should bring the baby stroller or not since I will be traveling there by air. I am not sure how and what the procedures are to bring a stroller, so to be safe, I need a baby carrier since I'm traveling with lil aqil alone from KL to JB.
I already have the pouch thing, but Aqil is not comfortable in it. He'll like merengek whenever I put him in it. So I googled and found out about Mei Tai . nampak macam bestt jer...so try cari online...hmm...a bit over my budget... ;p googled somemore, found one awesome website that have this Scandi Mei Tai's tutorial...hape lagi, printed out and balik rumah, terus beriya jahit! ;)
anddd...tadaaaa....
Aqil comfy dalam the Mei Tai, which makes mommy super happy.. I find this MeiTai tutorial very2 the easy to follow, plus, very2 comfortable for baby wearing (compared to the pouch type)
two tumbs up! me likey! ;)
details for the Mei Tai
(fyi, I made it reversible)
fabric for straps - Corduroy - Nagoya textile
fabric for panels (choc) - Blush by Moda- Quilthome.com
fabric for panels (choc) - Printed Donuts Fabric - MayMay Shop
Next, I have been wanting to make a fabric wallet since my cousin sent me a pic and asked me if I could make one for her (wait neh Ita, tak jumpa lagi fabby kale merah hitam yg lawa). plus my wallet dah koyak2..maka, terjadi lah ini
6 card slots, 1 zipped coin compartment. ;)
tutorial from confession of a fabricaholic
fabrics from lovemelotes and Quilthome.com
snap button from myhandmadestation
and lastly, a casing for our passports
all 3 in one place. ;)
tutorial from aspoonfullofsugar (but i tuka sket jadi untuk 3 an added the snap button)
fabrics from Quilthome.com
I am still hoping to finish making one blouse for me and one nursing cover before I leave for Sg! insyaAllah...
;)

i'm not gifted in sewing ni...kalau masak - memasak tu boleh jugak.
tapi nampak best u diy everything. nak cuba juga, tapi tak ada mesin jahit.
u pakai mesin jahit yg macam mana ye? (sori...tak tahu sgt pasal ni).
kalau yang macam ada orang jual kecik portable tu, boleh jugak ke pakai utk jahit benda2 comel camni?
thanks in advance :D
alya: nnti akak call yeh!
elyn: !! aku jahit pun sbb nak g sg..klu tak mmg tak menyempat..keje bnyk gile!

Meez: I pki mesin jahit biase jer..singer..but my mom's..nak beli sendiri tak terbeli lagi..hehe~~ yg portable tu boleh buat jahit biase2 jer..klu wallet n mei tai tak bleh kot sbb bnyk lapisan kan kain..takut tak lepas nak jahit..tak ingat berapa my mom beli dulu..but this one yg below 1k.. ;)
hi aisyah,
it's me k.tuty ur ssp senior. haha saya pun suka MeiTai. senang nak carry ke mana2. once diorg dah besar, masa nak masak asyik lekat kat kaki je, then pakai je backcarry MT.
lawa gile ur fabric.
saya tak la sehebat awak menjahit.. sikit2 bole la. purse tu kiut sgt.
nak tanya bole? where can i buy batting online? saya tak tau mana nak cari in jb
hye kak tuty,
akak try bukak website http://craftzone-my.blogspot.com/ , tgk kat tab craft shop, ade a few yg ade jual..i think nana craft shop ade, craftbuddy maybe ade..maymay pun ade jugak..akak just try browse jer kat website tuh.. ;)
adoi..aisyah bukan hebat pun jahit..biase2 aje.. ;) but thanks for stopping by at my blog.. :)
thanks aisyah!
