I am Sewing Monster

Yeap, I am. I am, I am, I AM!

I sew to destress and I only sew on weekends (okay... sometimes i will sneak into my sewing room and sew sew sew on weekdays too)

I was sewing so much I thought why not sell my sewings?

So I ordered my own label and it came few days ago. Happily I sew the label onto the stuff that I have made and it made me felt pretty happy.

Copy And Paste

I was quite down because i was thinking about my current problem. Too much to do with too little time. Between kids and my designing. I gave up my job to be with my kids but I spent too much time on designing till I have no time to be with them. Many thought that designing is very easy, afterall its copy and paste work. (you think?) and I always get the feedback that my charges is expensive. Tell you story hor.. when ppl see i post in fb , they will write "I want I want!" When I reply with my fees, POOF! And some asked me for free design.....I digress to bitch further.

I got my name card printed but sadly the day I received it was my day that I decided to let go of everything. Designing, blogging, sewing just to focus 100% on my kids.But part of me is very sad cos I love designing but I told myself I am not that good anyway. I never studied design and I don't have the time to learn more. Then i received an email from my customer from australia. She said
Sasha, thank you so much for your work, they have been great!
It made me realize how much I miss designing just for a day. I then went to her website and saw my logo LIVE.

And the welcome sign
thelittlemonkeyssmall
And I thought to myself, I cannot give up everything. Not designing. I may not be damn good, but I can be better than what I am today if I never give up and continue to practise. And I told myself, whoever that wanna bully me cos I am not a design graduate and because i am stay at home mum, I got no time for you, ok? If you think that designing is all about copy and paste, why not you copy and paste yourself?
