A birthday bag for Eli


It was my sister-in-law’s birthday on 30th October 2008, and I made her a tote bag in her favorite colour, purple about two months ago, with every intention to mail it out in the first week of October. But, as fate would have it, October turned out to be a very hectic month for me. I did not managed to mail out the package until the week of her birthday and it took 10 days before it finally arrived to her on Friday, 7th November 2008, a week late. *sigh* Sorry, Eli!

Anyway, shown above is the front and back of the bag. And as usual, as with all my tote bags, it is reversible.

I simply love the design of the cottons for this bag. For some reason, a combination of purple, green and orange somehow gives me the feeling of Halloween. Could it be because my SIL’s birthday is just before Halloween, and I got attracted to these cottons?

I bought these lovely cottons at SAKURA at SS19, Subang Jaya awhile back and even then I already knew it’s going to be used as a bag for my SIL. *smile*

Eli, I hope you will make full use of the bag and bring it along each time you go shopping, especially shopping at Joann’s! *wink*

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY, Eli! Hugs, and take care!

The problem with Kak Nun's lovely bags are that they are too lovely and made with too much care. I hardly use her bag as I sayang it and I dont want to rosak it...
I look at it when I open up my cupboard, savour it, and them put it back in...there are even times I just want to have it framed..

What a negative person I can be!!!
