Beautiful Fabric

Dear Qwerty,

The parcel has arrived ^^

I purchased some beautiful fabrics from Fabric Fanatics. I thought that cotton would be softer than linen, but I was wrong. Linen is softer and looks better too. I am glad that I have bought the principal pattern in linen ^^

Next time, I will buy mostly linens.

The buttons are bought offline.

I will make some pouches and tote bag for my mum using the fabric. I'd like to make a makeup bag for myself too :)

Right now, I always look at Japanese craft magazine to get some ideas on its design. I don't understand what were written but the pictures are enough to make me understand. Right now, my favourite books are on crafts and recipes :)

I am going to start with the project during my semester break. I will try to post the picture here when they are completed.

Bye bye..

Dear Qwerty,

Have you ever watched the show 'Cooking With Dog' on YouTube?

It is a Japanese cooking show. I learned to make bento from them. The instructions are very clear and they use simple ingredients. How would it feels to be able to eat light foods like that everyday? It must be wonderful. :)

This is a page from Suzy Charaben Book. It  teaches us how to make bentos.

When I own a house, I'd like it painted white with some pastels. The curtains would be white or earthy tones. Then, I would like to have wooden furnitures too. Not those made of expensive woods and decorated with elaborate carvings - just some simple, functional furnitures. Something that makes you feel relaxed and at home. Like in a summer cottage.

Something like this, but neater :)

Then, I would like to plant a lot of beautiful flowers outside. I think I will have a lot of yellow flowers :) I love roses too, but I don't like red roses. I prefer roses with softer colours. Oh, I want to have a small section of my yard as an edible garden. I will plant many different kinds of herbs in the small patch. I want to plant carrots too, although it is not considered a herb.

In my spare time, I want to try new recipes from my cookbooks or make fabric crafts using beautiful fabrics.
If I can afford it, I'd like to have a piano too. I can't play piano, but I love the sound it makes. Is it a crazy idea to buy an instrument you can't play? But I still want it >_<

I feel happy just by looking at this.

Of course I want to have a cat as a pet. But I won't buy it off a petshop. I don't like petshop, they lock the animals in small cages and the animals looked bored. I want to pick up some cats that looks sorry, like abandoned kittens. I'll clean them and feed them well until they look really cute :)

This is like the poem Lake Isle of Innisfree :)

OK, I'm done with (too much) day-dreaming. Till then~
