Some Fabrics to let go

My fabrics collection has grown up to 3 containers, it is time to clear and let go some of them. Posted some at Flying, more will come. These fabrics are Japanese cotton, have been selected with care and love, all of them are my favourite.

Recently while spending time in making soap, I still keep up with handmade bag. Remember to check out the bags that just posted on Flying recently.

SunShine - a bright and colorful tote. She is big enough to carry books, magazines and papers

SlingBag in Green (Sold) - she is made with Japanese cotton and linen.

SlingBag in Rose - you will sure want to own this.

Tote in Polka Dots Olive - made with lovely polka dots fabric, this is a 4in1 bag, means you will have 4 different desgin in one bag, check out the pic.

Happy Woo Hoo

Wish everyone a healthy and prosperous Tiger Year

ReOrganizing

In the Corporate world, ReOrg is very common, it happens in every 3-6 months. Today I
decided to reorg "The Life of Flying", want to give her a new look. While reorganizing the blog, I was reading through all the old posts I had in the last 4 years, it brings back all the memories, crafters I met and all the items I had made/met. All are sweet memories :) I'm glad that I recorded all them in the blog. THANK YOU to all the people who supportted me, encouraged me and gave me the opportunities.

福袋 (‘Fu Dai’)

Chinese New Year is around the corner, 5 more weeks. Guess everyone is busy with the preparation. Another Big Celebration

Would like to introduce this simple and back to the basic designed Tote bag – 福袋 (‘Fu Dai’)
The main is the Chinese character at the center – 福 means Good Luck (pronounce as ‘fu’). As you can see, the character is being sewn upside-down, means 福到 (Good Luck came). This is the wonderful of Chinese character.
The bag is made with unbleached cotton and I sew the edge with red thread, this helps to brighten the whole bag. It can be used to carry the mandarin oranges which you bring to visit your relatives during Chinese New Year (CNY). It also brings a very good meaning – you are bringing Gold (mandarin oranges) and Good Luck (福袋 – the bag) to your relatives and friends. Good stuff need to share with everyone.

You can also find the 福 character only at Flying. You may use it for any purpose, be innovative. It is made in fabric, so can last for long(years).

Hope you enjoy!
