Doodling on Post-it Note

A quick doodle;
wishing you a Happy Easter!
on my Post-it Note...


I love doodling
with coloured pens...
on almost anything, anywhere & anytime!
Doodling is my other passion,
when I am not sewing or crocheting...



My cute bunnies have the same heart
as my 'Button Love' design too..

Happy Easter...
and have a great weekend!

Sketches: Button Love... girl !

These are a few pages taken from my small sketchbook....
Oh yes... for those of you who do not know that
I also enjoy doodling & sketching during my free time!!



Inspired by my brand name 'button love' logo;
which is a free hand drawn heart shape in a circle...
I recently developed a series of a little girl character;
... button love girl !!




 I explored my button love girl in different hair styles!!
... can't decide which is most appropriate for her.



Tadaa... introducing you my finalised version of

Sketches to Stitches... & to Fabric Envelopes



Yes, after a long time... I finally decided to
sew them into fabric envelope pouches!!


If you do still remember,these are some of my sketches
posted more than a year ago...
I love drawing birds, trees, houses,
... inspirations from nature!


Then, I transferred my sketches into beautiful stitches,
together with hand sewn applique,
flower & lace crochets,
& button...



Eventually, I hand sewn them into fabric envelopes.
I have chosen cotton fabrics with simple patterns
... dots and lines - basic elements,
for the exterior and interior of the envelopes.



Hand crocheted white lace are also added 
to give more personalised touch to these lovelies.



These beautiful handmade fabric envelopes
are very practical, and closed with a fabric covered button.
Ideal to keep your notecards, letters, postcards
... things that you treasure!

Sketchbooks; Sketching & Drawing


A sketchbook is both a personal and unique visual journal. It is an invaluable archive of your ideas and thoughts.

I have a few sketchbooks, of a variety of shapes and sizes, with varied covers. I like the smaller ones as it is easy for me to carry them around.

Sketching and drawing is my other passion, besides making handmade stuff. It is a place for me to put down my ideas; to plan and organize my thoughts. Then only, I will start with my sewing projects...



These sketchbook pages are taken from my most recent sketchbook. I am currently exploring on the theme of nature; trees, birds, birdhouse...
