My Sis's Little Dress for Barbie

Umm, no, that's not the Barbie that I was referring to in the title. That's just me. :P
I'm just teasing..
I just came back from beach and had a great time with my family and just want to share with ya.

Anyway, putting all the silliness aside, here is the little dress that my sis made for her daughter's Barbie.

Isn't it just so neat? So pretty, I want one for myself.
You don't think she'd mind making a life size one for me, do you? :P
I think she would...ah well..

She did tell me how she made it, but I don't have a proper pattern and I don't think she wrote down the exact pattern too. She said, she just measured the Barbie and adjusted the stitches accordingly.
I, for one, do not have that kind of patience..

Anyway, just a quick update since I forgot to mention about it yesterday.
I made a pretty purple Mini Capelet for my niece yesterday.
You can find the pattern HERE.
I'll come back with photos for the Mini Capelet soon.

Wishing you a great start to your week!

Opps, I'm 21 :D

Hey everyone!
I turned 21 yesterday :D

I had a great day with the love of my life, Mitch.
It was my first birthday spent with him.
I skyped with my family back in Singapore and it was great fun! :D

Oh, and guess what?! Mitch found me a FOUR-LEAF CLOVER!
Oh my gosh! I have been looking for one for months. Whenever I go out for a walk, I would stare at the bushes, hoping to find my lucky charm. ;)
And he found it for me on my birthday - it was perfect.

Anyhow, I'll just share some highlights of my big day with photos and end this post. (:

Glamorous shot of the day :P

A Trip To Whale Centre

A few weeks ago, Mitch took me to Whale Centre at Victor Harbor.

I finally got to experience how big a whale can be and had a pleasure of meeting a cute turtle named "SOUP"! Who wants some turtle soup?... Didn't that sound quite wrong?

All the cute souvenirs. Aren't the whales so cute?

Beautiful sea creatures silver jewelries

More beautiful glass souvenirs. Couldn't help myself but take photos to share with you.

That fish was just staring into my soul...

All the beautiful corals

Meet SOUP! (:

Beautiful turtle...

Friday Musings

Took a nice walk with my boys. Did he really have to close his eyes at me?

Of course, I did some crocheting and made those blossoms.

I came up with the pattern yesterday and I'm so glad it works out nicely.

I made a yellow one yesterday and already turned it into earrings. I will be listing them pretty soon. 

I'm so excited! (:
So, how are you spending your Friday?

Happy Mother's Day

Hey everyone!
Today is 2nd Sunday of May and so, yep, it is Mother's Day here in Singapore and in many other countries too.
I made this card last night for my mom. It is just a really simple card, put together in like 10 mins.
Well, if you didn't count in the time needed to crochet the letters, that is..

I couldn't find any crochet pattern for letters. At least not in the 2-dimensional style.
So, I made up my own and it took me probably couple of hours to do it. (:
I might share the pattern, if I could actually write it out in a way that other people can understand...
Anyway, I don't think it is the most simple or prettiest "M" yet, so I might be trying other ways to get a better crocheted "M".

Here are the good sources of alphabet patterns that I could find on the net.

And if you don't mind spending a bit....

Here is an EBOOK on Ravelry.

Enjoy the rest of the weekends. (:
