Baju Kurung

There is still too early to celebrate the 'Hari Raya',  
but I have complete baju kurung for my daughter to celebrate it,  
that will appears despite there is still 6 months away....hahaha...
Early preparation to avoid choas and panic...at least i'm not worried.

By using English cotton given by my aunt,  
has formed into cute and adorable baju kurung.

Baju kurung is our traditional costume...

Not to forget, I added with green yarn knots and pearl beads  
that stitched along the neck for decoration to make it more pretty. 
In my place, it's called 'Simo'.

Peasant Blouse

Last night, I want to make 'Peasant Blouse' for Mia after seeing so many bloggers are making this dress.  
Why not, I try to make it?

The first attempt failed, because I'm not cutting the fabric according to sizes that has been provided in the tutorial. I thought the size was too big for my daughter which her in a smaller size. 
Consequently, I am not making a dress for mia, but makes for a doll dress. The trial and an error ....
Mia cannot fit into the first dress i made for her.. hahahha... 
LOL.. that was funny..

Failed, but I do not want to surrender.  
I made another one but this time based on the sizes from the tutorial  
and finally I managed to made it.

This is the outcome.
