my handmade blouse

I can't get away from check pattern
and need more and more.

My handmade: Gingham blouse

I have made this blouse and fell deeply in love with gingham pattern.
Never known before that it would give me this feeling.
Now I'm looking for more and more pieces of gingham cloth to make more and more blouses.

My Handmade: Striped shirt

My new handmade striped shirt
that get inspiration from seeing Sofia Coppola
wearing her shirts for a certain time.

My new handmade blouse and some thoughts

After reading Jenny (wiksten-made) making herself a blouse
to be the same design as “Sunshine and shadow”.
I decided to try my own version too.
Although there’s a lot of comments whether or not to do this.
I admitted that I couldn’t stop myself from wanting to make this blouse since it looks so easy.
And I convinced myself that it's ok because it’s just a sleeveless blouse like another blouses
but with just a pocket and a round hem like a man shirt.
But I think (again) that it’s not like another blouses
because of these details and this is what we called the “design”.

And then I came out with this conclusion.....
......I made a striped blouse that I used horizontal stripes for the pocket
to be contrast to the vertical stripes of the main part.
At the two corners of the hem I added the tiny pieces of horizontal striped details again.
I wanted to play with patterns not about the silhouette.
I tried to think that I was inspired by Sunshine and shadow blouse
but twisted it into my own version. Hope this help.

Sometimes life is too complicated...don't you think?

She's a tiger

Last wednesday was the birthday of my niece, Num.
She's getting 11 years old. She's a tiger in Asian sign.
Quite right...for the fact that she's courageous and dynamic.
Happy Birthday darling, you're a big girl now.
This is the card that I made for her by my hand.

My handmade doll

Isn't she cute? I like the pattern on her.
The first picture I took her photo while she was standing up.
The following one I told her to sit down then she cross her legs.
Is she a model? Maybe she is.

My handmade cushion

In interior design work that's too minimal
we can design something warmer for the space to make it look more comfortable.
I like this piece for its simply white but with lots of details.
Fun stuff in a serious clean room.

My new handmade blouse

I made these in grey and of course in....white

My new cotton blouse in grey

I made a new blouse in grey cotton and really really happy with it.
It fits me perfecrly and the cotton is so good to wear in hot weather like these days here.
I also had it in white before.

My clothing "What I've been wearing recently"

I made this first blouse 5 years ago.
I was also wearing this as my maternity blouse but altered the pattern a little bit.
This one is my eight edition so far.
I love wearing the same thing and find that what I wear for the longest is my most favorite one.

My first handmade blouse

My first handmade clothing is my sleeveless blouse.
I’ve been wearing this for over 18 years and remake it over and over again.
My grandmother has taught me to do this.
She’s an amazing self-taught artist who is 82 years old now.
This kind of blouse is called “Kor Kra Chauw”
that old people wearing in their everyday life for a long time.
And my grandmother makes her own all the time with the recycle pieces of cloth.
After that blouse I made another similar things and wear them every summer.

My favorite color

I normally wear white shirt. I didn't know that
until 10 years ago....my little niece told me that white must be my favorite color
then I asked her why....she said....because you wera only white shirt!....I still do.

I love muslin

All of my blouses made from muslin.
It's so lightweight and breezy. Comfortable to wear.
You don't need it to be iron.
It looks better with the wrinkles.
Doesn't it sound too good. But it's true.
Need I say more?

Handmade basket

As a mother I need something to keep Magga's toy in their place.
As an iterior designer I need something that fit in my clean space.
This is the perfect one for me.
