'Cause all of me, Loves all of you...

Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh

[John Legend ~ "All of me"]

We've got all of these one-of-a-kind wire art sculptures specially created for your Valentine. To order, please email us here for the details.

 

Small Crochet Dogs: A Tribute to Man's Best Friends

As I'm typing this post, it's way past my pet dog Browny's bedtime. But as always, Browny will stay up and lie beside me, keeping me company as I do my work. It's only when I go to bed that Browny will go to his own bed to sleep. Such is the faithfulness of dogs.

This post is our TRIBUTE TO ALL OUR LOYAL FRIENDS OUT THERE. We got our crafters to crochet 10 species of dogs in small size, around 12cm tall/long, so that everyone can afford (only $15) to have a BEST FRIEND. Note: Price may change over time.

NEW SERIES OF TRADITIONAL CUP COASTERS, TABLEMATS AND FLOORMATS

Introducing our new series of traditional cup coasters, tablemats/pot coasters, and floormats which we worked with Nat Mai and her three-generation family to make them.

We used only polkadot and checked fabrics and chose a concentric circle design for a truly retro look. With this design, we didn't have to micro-manage, allowing the sewer the freedom to mix and match our fabrics in any random and asymmetrical order. 

Nat Mai's elderly mother was so happy with our project that she finished making the coasters and mats in double-quick time. We were glad she was happy, but was worried she would over-stretched herself and had to keep telling her to take her time and get plenty of rest.

What we didn't expect was the amount of fabric used up. Just for the record, we had 18 pcs of polkadot fabrics each two meters long and a similar quantity of checked fabrics ~ that's 72 meters of fabric in total. This much fabric gave us only 100 cup coasters (4ins), 20 pcs of 10-inch tablemats, 12 pcs of 15-inch tablemats, and 4 pcs of 20-inch floormats. Our material cost per piece was therefore very high.

Here are the results:
