THE OTHER HEX FLOWER BOX PURSE COMPLETED!

The other hexagon flower box purse is complete! What do you think about the twin sisters? :)

A CUSTOM ORDER OF ANOTHER HEXAGON FLOWER BOX PURSE!

I received a custom order of 2 hexagon flower box purses last week. The lady who placed the order wanted me to use her own fabrics of her own taste, so she sent me the fabrics. She wanted all the leftover fabrics back! It looks like she is an another fabric addict just like me! :) I understand how she feels about her fabrics very well!

One of the purses will be a Christmas present for her quilting friend. The lady says she'll try to keep it as a secret till Xmas, but she says it'll be very hard to do it! I sent the same pictures to the lady and I'm very glad that she liked the color combination.

The second purse is in the same color combo. But I'll use a different fabric for binding so they can tell them apart.

The fabrics she sent to me are of fabric designer Jo Morton for Andover Fabrics. I haven't heard anything about Jo Morton before but it turned out I had some of the same fabric line, too! So I used also them next to the lady's fabrics.

CUSTOM ORDER COMPLETED!

I completed the 20-box kai no kuchi custom order and I have posted them yesterday! The buyer is a friend from my Etsy team and she wanted me to use fabrics with cat themes. I hope she'll receive them safely soon!

I dug out some new fabrics from my huge fabric collection recently and am preparing to sew some new kai no kuchi boxes with them! But in the meantime, I need some action in my Etsy shop as well!

A Cute Kai no Kuchi Set

I made today that the cutest kai no kuchi! I used a pink fabric with cute kitties on it. Actually this is a custom order for a friend and she chose this fabric. First I thought that the fabric isn't right for a kai noi kuch box but it turned out to be very cute!!
There are more boxes with cats on the way! But in different fabrics!

KAI NO KUCHI STITCH MARKER CASES

These are the "Kai no Kuchi" boxes that I made as stitch marker cases. I think they turned out to be very cute and with the needle case a good combination as a commodity.

これはステッチマーカーとして作った「貝の口」2個です。とてもかわいく、編み棒ケースと一緒に売れる商品として、いい組み合わせとなったと思いますね。

KNITTING NEEDLE CASE-SOLD!

This is the finished needle case. I thought this was a very creative idea and a sell-able item for my shop. I think I'll make another one to put in my shop!
これは完成品です。
とても創造的で実用的アイデアで、売れるものだと思ったので、もう一個作って、ネットショップに入れるつもりです。

Finally I completed the knitting needle case and listed it in my Etsy shop so that the lady can make the purchase. She bought it yesterday as she said she would and then she wanted me to add 2 matching jewelry boxes to her order of the needle case. She said that she could use them for storing her stitch markers.

やっと編み棒ケースの注文を仕上げて、買い手の方が購入できるように、ネットショップに追加しました。彼女はそれを昨日買ったのですが、その後はケースに合うような「貝の口」2個を注文に追加してもらいたかったのです。ステッチマーカー（目数リング）を入れるために使うと言われました。

A CUSTOM ORDER: KNITTING NEEDLES CASE

I started working on an unexpected custom order on Friday: A lady who bought 4 of my "Kai no Kuchi" boxes on Etsy wants me to make her a knitting needle case! She said that she liked the patchwork pen case in my shop and wanted me to modify it with green family colored fabrics to accomodate her 10" knitting needles! I got started right away!

金曜日に、思いがけない注文が入りました。Etsyにて「貝の口」を4個買ってくれた方は編み棒ケースを注文しました。うちのネットショップにあるペンケースを10"の編み棒が入れるようにみどり系の布で作ってもらいたいのです。もちろんすぐにこの仕事に取り掛かりました。
