3rd NNC Anniversary Meet & Exchanges

1st of all, sorry for MIA for a while.. anyone missed me?? After our 3rd Anniversary Meet, I was too lazy to do anything including cross-stitching. Actually at this moment i'm still not in mood to update my blog. So, here's just a few photo from the Anniversary Meet that was held at Sabariah's house @ Setia Alam, Selangor. For full story, you can read from Nik's blog.

My door gift contribution - Ribbons

Door gifts - Felts (MW), Bookmark (Nik), Bias tape & buttons (Zai), Paper stamped (Usha), HDT (Zarina), FQ (Janet), Hand-dyed floss (Diane, USA), Ceramic Rose Cup (Rose), Button set (Mel), hand made Japanese clay ornament (Valarie), Tupperware fridge magnet (Sabariah)

- Thanks everyone

Goodie bag for Afiqah

Goodie Bag for Haiqal

Lucky Draw - Sabariah received mine ~ Simple drawstring with Eifal Tower (crossstitched - from Blackbird Design) and a compulsory felt flower (i made into hair barrette)

Co-incidentally, i received Sabariah's gift - a big 'kekabu' pillow with crocheted cover and compulsory felt flower too

I also managed to complete my exchanges. Even though its not comes to the dateline yet, i used this opportunity to send out my exchange, so i don't have to mail it out.

Pincushion Exchange - Once again MW became my exchange partner. The theme for this exhange is Blue. So for the safe side, i made everything in blue

Even the 3 compulsory stashes also in blue including the box.. LOL!

Bookmark Exchange received from Paul. What a surprised! But unfortunately i /we can't open it until International Book Day on 23 April 2010. Another waiting in pain *sigh*

BTW, this is my birthday pressie for Rose. Actually her birthday was long time ago, somewhere in December but I too lazy to wrap this big cushion. So I just wait until our next bee.. Hopefully you like it Rose.....

Stitching Bee August'09 @ Starbuck, Bangsar Village II

Last Saturday was NNC Stitching Bee. Still at the same place and the same time. After met Sue from Sweetsue Cupcake ( I ordered 50pcs of yummy and delicious cupcake), I rushed to Bangsar LRT Station to pick-up Roses. We arrived at BV2 at almost 10.00 but unfortunate I had tyre puncture. It happened just when Rose got in the car.. LOL.. Its ok Rose, not your fault laa... Luckily not me who drove the car, MrHubby did!!! If not, aiyaaa... it will spoil my mood already..

Me, my DD - Afiqah and Rose were the 1st arrived at Starbuck around 10.15 (we waited MrHubby changed the old tyre), followed by Anna and then Veronica... Later other members arrived - MW and DD, MW's sister - Jackie, June, Lilie, Janet and DD, Sabariah and Mel. BTW, Nik was not here this round due to her exam.
