Another Giveaway by Lian from Lilstitchy

You still have time for another giveaway, ending tonite!! haha :panic:

I love indie craft

Novelty fabrics are fabrics with a theme of some sort. Pets, holidays, toys, and sports are just a few of the numerous motifs printed on fabric.

This type of fabric became popular during the last quarter of the 19th century . At this time they were called conversation prints. Bicycles, horseshoes and anchors were popular motifs.

During America’s Great Depression manufacturers began to sell animal feed and staples like flour and sugar in sacks printed with delightful themes. Once the feed sack was emptied the sack was used to make clothing or quilts. There were some delightful novelty prints on feedsacks. See the link to feedsack novelty fabrics.

The novelty fabrics available today seem to be endless and include just about any theme you can imagine. Just one word of warning. If you find a novelty fabric you love you’d better buy it then and there as they are usually done in just one printing.

I’m the type that is always NOT confident with oneself :pfft: Argh… you must be rolling your eyes rite now, but that’s what I always felt. Used to sew and make crafty goods for oneself, but after word of encouragement (and a little push) from mommy and dearest friends, I’ve decided to sell my handmade goodies… so that I can share my love of crafting with everyone else!! :inlove:

So, if you have any comments, suggestions, critics, word of advice… love notes or even hate notes do tell. Owh yeah, please don’t be mad if I don’t reply your questions/email straight away. Maybe I was busy with work. But I’ll try to reply as quick as possible.

and owh yes, a big thanks to Karen from EMMAGEM for featuring Easy Clutch on their website. Got A LOT of trafic from their website! :love:

Updated August 9th, 2008

OMG! ps: hehe its waaaay overdue. I’m swamped with work right now. And I’ll be away, for 2 weeks (craaaaaaazy)… without Internet!! Its work related… *sigh*

I’ll send text to Customers #1 – #3, regarding payment and shipping. Right now, I need rest~

This clutch is CUSTOM MADE to order, which means;

1. You can choose your desirable flavor (for outer body) from the swatch
2. Choose the flap’s color
3. Choose the chain strap (gold or nickel)
4. Wait for 1 week, for production

It’s best for me to match the flap, chain type and swatch myself to ensure color coordination. right?

Easy Clutch?? Details please…

The outer body is made from cotton fabrics (yes, its cotton… not leather or synthetic material) with medium weight interfacing. Medium weight interfacing helps maintaining the shape but will lose shape if handled vigorously.

The flap is from satin-like fabrics interfaced with firm heavy weight interfacing, backed with cardboard stabilizer so it will remain in shape.

For interior, I use floral prints with mid loft batting… to give the clutch some sort of puffiness and shape. Opps, no mini pockets and no zip. Just 1 compartment to stash you stuff in.

• Dimension : 11″ x 5.5″
• Height (Flap) : 4″
• Chain : 2 choices (gold or nickel)
• Chain length : *will add this later
• Compartment : 1 only, NO ZIP
• Closure : Sew-on Black Snap Button
• Outer : Cotton
• Interior : Floral prints, medium batting
• Flap : Satin-like fabrics

Color swatch for flavors!

Currently I’m using Amy Butler’s Midwest Modern Fabric Collection. Midwest Modern collection is divided into 3 color palettes, Orange Dahlia, Ohio Sky and Pink Dahlia.

For Pink Dahlia, quote PD{swatch num}. For example; PD1

Oppps! PD1, PD2 is not available!

For Orange Dahlia, quote OD{swatch num}. For example; OD10

For Ohio Sky, quote OS{swatch num}. For example; OS4

Color flap and chain details will be added later! I have to squeeze time for shooting session, the weather is not good these days.

So, you can place your order by;

• text : 017 608 6147
• email : store@shambijoux.com
• shopping cart : will be added soon

If you are willing to wait, you can order~
