Hi there, Happy Friday 🌸🌸 Today's update is about two new dresses that I made to wear on special outings. The sleeveless orange midi dress was made in October and the long-sleeved dress was made at the beginning of this month.  Both patterns were self-drafted, and the dresses had ruffles at the bottom tier. And to complete the look, I added a removable bow and pinned it to the neckline.  For the sleeveless midi dress, I used a linen blend fabric a souvenir from my trip to Bangkok and the fabric was enjoyable to sew. As usual, the sewing process started with pinning and sewing the darts and then attached the facings to the front and back pieces right sides together.

Candy Tote Bag

By -
I named this tote bag "CANDY" because she looks colourful and sweet:)
I made several bag with several colours, I think I am crazy enough to made 4 tote bags in one week. I was busy and always be, taking care my sweet little baby. I only have time to sewing when my baby napping in the afternoon.
I showed my first candy bag to my husband when he arrived home after work, and he was surprised that I could finish one bag during two hours. Woah...! Even myself was surprised!

Here I made four candy bags already but I am going to make one more. I will give all of them for my cousins in Indonesia as holiday gift. I am sure they will love it:)



The size of the bag approximately 24 cm height, 35 cm weight and 8 cm deep.
Material needed:
- Home decor fabric
- Cotton as interfacing
- Bias tape, I used bias tape from japanesse cotton.
- 56 cm ykk zipper
- Heavy duty interfacing for bottom bag



The four candy bags are really cute, isn't it? I imagine that they are real candy that I could eat it all:)
I think I am really starving for candy right now.








Well, I only posting the pictures of my project for now. I will post the pattern and tutorial another time.
I also shared this project on --candy tote bag-- on www.Burdastyle.com
