DIY Elastic Belt

It is hard for me to find an elastic belt that suit me.  Do you have a same feeling as me either they are too small or too big for you. When I was in Malaysia and Singapore, most people can get one easily, but I can't bcoz I am too skinny. So before I came over USA, I did not get any I like. When I need a belt for my dress, I will tie a ribbon instead of using a belt. But I really want one. And again I search you tube and found Make your own Scrunchy Belt , it is pretty, right? The lady and the belt. But most of my dresses are with pattern, so I do not need a pattern belt. Then I search again and I saw a lady make a dress but  can not remember from which blog. She has a dress that without a waistline, so she immediately make a belt from elastic. She stitched the elastic together and made a circle like a loop. Then she just clip a fabric flower on the elastic that's all. Done in a minute or two. So I keep in mind.  A few days ago I went to Joanna Fabric and saw a Fashion B

DIY Vest

  I already had a black halter vest but it make me very skinny, so I always want to have a white one or something else cover up my skinny and my hubby has a lot unfitted t-shirt for me to refashion or up-cycle them. Then I went you-tube and search for how to DIY vest and I found this easy tutorial DIY Vest from a Tshirt ♥ . I did not follow everything she did, because the polor shirt I have has a pretty "V" opening on each side, so I did not cut on side but from the middle of the shirt. Thanks.

The 1st time buy Fat Quater

Joanna Fabric has moved to a new place in Wichita, which is closer to my place. So I went there with my hubby on Saturday, and I found what I want (Fashion Buckle + matched elastic = Belt) and the fabric fat quarters are on sale one for $.099 (Regular price $1.99). Then I told myself I got to get some for myself since I am new to this and I wanted to make a burp cloth for my friend and chopsticks wrap for my mother-in law and sister-in law. Then I have 6 of them. I am so happy that I can practice my sewing skill and make something. Due to I have no knowledge about fat quarters so I went online and search for it and I found this I Keep Hearing the Term "Fat Quarter" -- What Is a Fat Quarter? I have learned a lot from here. :) I am so happy that I have learn something new today.

flavored-water

  I read  flavored-water   on June 20. By the time I saw the jar with the citrus, I said to myself I ready have to drink that. It looks refresh in the hot hot hot summer. So I got a chance to make drink in a party on July 9. Finally I tasted the drink, it is so easy to make and tasty. I can't stop myself not to drink it. Amy's recipe 1 gallon fresh water 3-4 slices of lemon 3-4 slices of lime 3-4 slices of other citrus (optional) 3-4 slices of cucumber and I added 2-3 slices of apple too.  Wish you have a great summer.

I will start this because recently I have read a lot blog about making craft, upcycle things, refashion cloths.... and I did some. So I want to SHARE or show off what I did. :) Thanks!
