Sewn Up Cushion Cover








Yayyy!! Finally!! My cushion cover got sewn up and ready to use now... after finishing the xstitch projects earlier this year, I didnt manage to make it into a cushion cover until now :)

Just before I go back for holidays, I scored a bargain for a mini portable sewing machine...

I love this machine, it totally suitable for me.. uncomplicated, small, and do all the sewing for me!! It has the little light to make it easier to sew, and has option of automatic sewing or foot pedal on off sewing :) Here it is :)




So, last Sunday, after playing around for some time, I decided to just go ahead and sew my projects.. spent some more time figuring how big it needs to be... figuring how and where to cut the fabric... andddd start sewing!!


Ugh.. not as easy as I thought.. first, I have trouble understanding why my machine got stuck halfway through, then alllll other sorts of problem comes one after another... but after "hard work" (*translate : getting my husband to sort it out for me) I manage to sew and get it all done ... :)




The green is the first one, a little bit untidy, but acceptable by my standard hahaha :) I love the end result... I think its quite good for my first attempt :)
