Nur Salam Fundraising Night

charity night1 Sumay holding up “The Dazzle” during the auction

I am back in Penang again after spending a weekend in Kuala Lumpur for the Nur Salam Fundraising party….. which took place on the 11th of July 2009 at Carlos @ Pavillion. It was a successful fundraising party and raised more than RM105,000.00 for the charity. I had a good time enjoying the atmosphere of the party with my mum, sister and a friend. Among the events in the party, we watched performances from rock stars, gender illusionist shows, jokes, auctions and Sumay (as Mistress Mara) spanking people to raise funds… etc, but nothing beats the moment when “The Dazzles” was successfully bidded. BRAVO (round applause, please)!!!!

The auction event started at around 10:30pm and there was an abundance of items in the auction list, among them were 5 rounds on a Porsche Le-Mans at Sepang F1 circuit, ….

Fabrics, Fabrics, Fabrics, I Love Fabrics

April 17, 2009 | Random

 

I love fabrics!!! The above 3 pieces of fabrics are my recent gifts.Left – from sumay, my lovely editor for this blog. This fabric material is popular in making saree, a tradition garment for female in Indian subcontinent. I plan to make a nice and elegant frame clutch purse with it. I like the tassel-like dangly bits on it and will definitely retain it on the purse. May be I will add some beads on it to make it more classy and elegant.

 

Middle – from Lollychops. She saw my fish frame clutch purse and thinks that I could use this fabric to make a pear-shaped frame clutch to match the printed pears on the fabric. Her eyes are so sharp to spot the body of that fishy purse to resemble a pear, without the lip and tail of course :)

Right – a swap with Joanne of Ready.Set.Craft . I love the flower prints on it, I plan to make something denoting Springy season with it. Could be a tote bag, but I’m not sure yet :p

I love these fabrics so much so that I have to properly plan my work to ensure that I wouldn’t ruin them with bad designs :)
