Cute cupcake pillow!

The perfect cupcake is here! It's yummy, with no calories and no trans fat! Super huuuuge and fluffy too!!

Hugable cupcake pillow~

Cute cupcake pillow

Size: 30 x 32cm

Color: assorted

Description: made from flannel with felt embellishment; 

can add special message/wordings at the back;

a perfect gift for any occasion

(or you can just keep it for yourself ~)

The pink cupcake is actually my first prototype. Since the topping lines didn't really show, I've decided to add zigzag as decoration stitch in the second cupcake (i.e. the yellow one). Now it looks better right? Still, there will be small changes on my next cupcake pillow as I'm not really fond of its boxy-shaped bottom.

But still, it's super cute that I have to hide them for safekeeping from my sister! She actually threaten to kidnap those cuties and snuggle them for herself :P

They will be added to our catalog soon. Stay tune~ 
Edit: Added here :)

Order: Personalized name pillow (sweets theme)

Ordered by kak Zu for her 10 years-old daughter's birthday, Aisyah Nabila :) Aisyah loves pink and really into cute stuff! Since kak Zu didn't set the theme and kindly letting me play with my imagination, here's what I've came up for her~

Personalized name pillow with cute gingerbread man, tiny cupcake and sweets!

Close-up: Each applique letter is carefully hand-cut and machine stitched. Also applied machine embroidery to the other half of her names. Neat huh?

Pictures from various angles~

Personalized name pillow

Name: Aisyah Nabila

Theme: Cute + sweet dessert

Color: baby-pink + P6 printed flannel for the back

Bubble dialog: 'happy birthday' + 'from ibu & ayah'

After her birthday,  I got an email from kak Zu, and it really made my day reading this:

The pillow is so adorable. The sewing is neat and my daughter really loves it….Thanks so much for your hard work. It just can’t translate to money

Thanks kak Zu for trusting me on this :)

Order: 'I love U' customized couple pillow

Here's a couple pillow order by Haikal, made in late July. He wants it similar to the together forever couple pillow,  but with the wordings changed to 'I Love U' :)

Couple pillow with machine embroidered wordings, embellished with cute couple made from felt

'I love U' pillow

Theme: Love

Color: Dusty red

Character: girl in hijab + baju kurung; boy in tees

Thanks Haikal for your order. Hope you like it :)

Order: Youtube and twitter bird pillow

This is actually one of my latest order :) Ordered by Aimi in late August. These pillows are made as per her requests: youtube logo and twitter bird applique in front, with full line of wordings at the back. 

The logos are all cut by hand and applied with machine stitching, while the wordings are machine embroidered. Since the words are too long, I've divided them into two parts so they can fit into the hoop. By far, this is the longest time I've ever spent in front of the embroidery machine :)

I love how they turn out. Simple and clean!

Thanks again Aimi for your order. Hope you like it :)

Order: Couple pillow + plushie

Ordered by Nur Syafiqah Maisara in July. This is actually the second set of 'Together Forever' couple pillow that I've made. It's really similar to the one I've made before (here), since she wants it exactly like that. Unfortunately, I've run out of dark-red colored fabric so she choose printed flannel instead for the back.

Together forever (machine embroidered) couple pillow

Color: dark red with P2 fabric at the back

Character customization: girl with hijab & baju kurung, boy in tee

Theme: love

Here's another order of hers; a kawaii turquoise neko plushie. Cute huh? :) Anyone remember it's twin, the grey neko?

Thanks dear for your order. I'm glad your cousin like the plushie :)

Order: Customized birthday pillow (with crown)

Made this in late June. A simple pillow order from Nurulhana for her friend's birthday. As usual, it's made from flannel with felt embellishment. Wordings for "happy birthday" and name are machine embroidered, while the number and the cute girl character is felt appliqued. A crown is added on top of the numbers as requested :)

What I've been up to...

Hello all,

It's been a while since my last post isn't it? I hope it's not too late to wish 'Selamat hari raya' to all my blog readers~

Anyway, here's a preview of what I've been up to for the past few months. You might have seen some of them in stitchNknot facebook page :)

Various crafts: (1) cupcake pillows,  (2) kitties keychain, (3) simple tote, (4) hijabi keychain,
(5) patchwork pillow, (6) strawberry tree pillow, (7) diana mini pouch

Truth be told, I still have tons of unpublished craft photos. And some of them are customized orders from 2011! So, to make it up you, I promise to post once every two days, at least until I'm catching up with my current finished orders.

Well... wish me luck! :)

Note to self: Write a post compiling all my unpublished 2011 orders!
