LOL. He whines too. >__<;; He whines when we leave him to go in to do our stuff, because he wants someone to play with. And he doesn't like the bone, so we have no idea what to give him to keep him occupied? And feeding him is out of the question - vet said Labs are prone to obesity, so we can't feed him too much. >__<
Thanks. >///< I find making bags and hats easier than making dresses, because I haven't got the attention span to stick to long projects, so I'm slowly working my way up to it by making smaller stuff, and then on to that jacket/dress thing. XDD
Yeah, but because we put him outside - not allowed in the house for now, because it's summer, and he slobbers from drinking too much water. XD But if he were in the house, I expect he wouldn't be whining? People around to "entertain" him. Lol!
YES! That too! It's so much of a bother to refit a dress/shirt/item-of-clothing! And now that I've got a camera, I can take more photos! I'll definitely be sewing more stuff! Holidays and all, and I haven't found a job - kind of need the transcripts first before I apply, since my previous years' results suck so bad. ;____;
Lemme guess, reversible is easier? ^_^ The hemming is much easier with reversible! ><
*huggles* Glad you liked it! I wanted to make an eco bag before I came but didn't have the time... and the recycled dress bag I made already has a hole on the side... >< Heh heh but it's really roomy! I find myself constantly amazed at how much it holds!
And about the kimono thing, would you rather get another obiage of a different colour, or another obijime, or... *thinks back* I think they have eri also bah. It was a bargain bin for Yamato Kimono Shop at the local shopping mall. It's mostly summer obijime and obiage though, so the obijime is flat and has an open weave and the obiage is thinner and has a ro like appearance. They have non-summer obijime and obiage too, which would you prefer? (If I finish my homework fast I can go down to the shopping mall again today. ^_^)
HEH! You found me out! But actually, for non-reversible bags, I can make them sew just like reversible ones, I think? Just the measurement's different? XDDD
I loved the book! It's got so many ideas! <3 Eh, can the hole be fixed? I'm thinking of making a laptop sleeve too, because mine's a bit broken. The zip head broke. Hahah! Can your recycled dress bag be fixed? I'm thinking of making a tote bag for myself too! A big roomy one, but if I put too many things in it, it hurts if I carry it on one side only. D:
Ooh! I hope you got my sms to your phone today? >___< I remember you said we could sms to your Sg line or email you?
The bag can probably be fixed bah *eyes it* It's not so much a hole as the seam coming apart. I can probably sew it back together again but I think fundamentally it's a construction problem, there's too much stress at that seam and stuff. When I get back I'd patch it up instead of sewing it up, that would alleviate the stress on the seam. It's just I have nothing here to help fix it, except a pocket sewing kit, so mah... no time anyhows
( ... )
Oh! So that's how it's done! Hmm. If that's the case, for heavy-duty bags, I think it'll be better to sew an extra strip of cloth along the seams! :D Good! Because my planned tote-bag-which-might-never-happen would need to be one of those heavy-duty things
( ... )
Thank you! I meant for them to be gifts for my Japanese senseis. Should probably be handing them over in a few days? I have training for the speech competition, and will likely be going back to school for training and all, I think? >___< I'd have liked for them to turn out prettier, but... I'm not creative enough for embellishments? XD
THANK YOU! He likes his name too, so we're not changing it. >__< He responds well to the name, and it's pretty unique - rarely does one hear about a dog named after food. XDDD
Yeah, Man Tou! XDDD Cute right, the name? XDDD He's actually illegally staying here, but the owner just moved house, and has no time to cancel the dog license. But I got to take Man Tou to the vet anyway, to discuss if it's more advisable to sterilise him before I apply for the dog license too.

True, true. You wouldn't really have to worry about whether the bag fits as well. XD I'll look forward to photos on other sewing projects of yours~ :D
