Happy Hat ~ 喜悦之帽

这里的天气很热又很晒。我的一位可爱的朋友托我帮她和她的宝贝女儿及女儿的朋友缝制帽子。这样孩子们放学回家时就不用怕被太阳公公晒得头昏脑胀了。

朋友帮这顶帽子取名为"Happy Hat", 应该是戴上它就可以带来快乐吧。哈哈。我也就把我这作品称之为喜悦之帽吧！

如何让小小的东西为别人带来大大的快乐， 是我小小的心愿， 也是制作的初衷。:)

Clasp Frame Bag ~ 斜挂手提两用口金包

Have been wanting to try making a clasp frame bag but couldn't find the pattern I like. The metal clasp frame that can be found at the local shop here are mainly the sew-in type. During my recent trip to Tokyo, I found the glue-in type metal clasp frame which I think would be easier to work with. 

So here it is, I'm finally making a clasp frame bag using the metal clasp frame and fabric both bought from Nippori fabric town in Tokyo. The glue-in type make a neater finish on the bag. And it's definitely a lot easier and faster than the sew-in type. For glue-in type, you just need to apply glue at the trough of the frame then place the constructed bag and the piece of thread that comes together with the frame.

I quite like the clasp frame bag, it makes a good dinner bag or sling bag. Too bad I only bought one piece from Tokyo. How I wish we have a craft shop just like in Tokyo where they sell all sorts of accessories and material for sewing and craft making. That would be heaven to me. Hahaha.

London Landmark Prints Tote ~ 伦敦风托特包

老同学另外又订制了一个托特包包给她的妹妹。好用心的姐姐。：）

话说同学的妹妹有一天帮忙提姐姐（就是我的同学）孩子的包包。觉得肩带刚刚好，背在肩上不容易滑落。于是，我的这位同学就很贴心的帮妹妹订制了这一个包包。

希望同学的妹妹会喜欢。

School Carrier Bag ~ 上学必备手提袋

老同学向我订制了两个手提包给她的孩子们。上学用的。她手上刚好有个样本就叫我依样本做。我说那就用现成的吧，不用花钱再做。她说质料不好，不耐用。所以托我要用丹宁布料来制作。依样本制作但做了些更改，手提袋前缝了两个口袋，方便孩子放文具之类的小东西。

近来，丹宁布料不好找。还好想起大型的Spotlight 应该会有。顺利在那里买到了要用的布料。那里的货物价钱较高档，但是手作用品应有尽有，其他地方找不到的手作材料去那里找就对了。

赶在农历新年前制作好两个手提袋，以便可以带回家乡交给老同学。：）
