Thanks to the sale, I may have cleared ~40% of my existing stock… which means I have another 60% to go 🤪😂

It took me almost 2 weeks to cut/pack/clear the first few waves of orders, & it was quite draining, esp since I’m also on full time job now.

I was overwhelmed by the support & enthusiasm of returning customers and “new” ones, many of whom ended up having a good long chat with me on how I came to this phase of my journey.

For those who missed, fret not, I still have plenty, which I probably will highlight here from time to time, until ALL are cleared. And yes, it’s 50% off store wide 🙂

For this highlight, Sewing Bears, and the Shot Cotton (Solids) in Thistle (Pink), Beet (Red), Hydrangea (Purple) r still available in various yardage.

Pls dm me here or on my IG, if you’re interested in any of these. Thank you, n till the nx highlight 🥳👋

Cutting, packing, sorting, updating the listing… n I’m barely scratching the surface😅

There’s still plenty to go through, n my Etsy listing is not very up to date as well. So if you missed last week’s announcement and is keen, pls be in touch with me directly here, or thru my Instagram, n I’ll take down your order (Q number).., but again, it may take me a week or so, till it’s ready. So, do bear with me 🙏😄

And for those who ordered last week n hasn’t gotten an update yet, I’ll be in touch once your order is ready. Some delays here, as I also ran out of packing materials, but rest assured I’m on it 👍🥳

HELLO Everyone!

Thank you so much for all the support all these years, and since I've decided to return to "the work force" once again, I think it's time to fully let go of this fabric business.

It was fun & truly enjoyable while I was at it, but not something that I can't let go either, and I'm putting this down with gratefulness & peace in my heart.

Now that I'm comfortably settled in my new routine, I think the time is right to do a final CLEARANCE for all ready stock items, and everything is slashed at 50% off, first come first served, until all are cleared :)

Pls check out the link on my Etsy shop here:

Feel free to be in touch with me here if you have specific queries, or need to check on something, & I'll try to get back to you asap.

Thank you once again, from the bottom of my heart!

Hello Saturday 👋

It’s been a while & I’ve been “quiet” 😁 as I’ve returned back to work since mid March, n amazingly it’s been close to 4 months now 🎉

Thankfully all’s going well on the home front & I’m adapting well to being back to working life, by God’s grace 🙏

Of course, it also meant that I’ve decided to put The Laughing House (& Fabrics) to “sleep mode” 💤

It’s a hobby business that I enjoyed & has been blessed with for the past 15yrs, but it’s not something that I can’t let go of either.

Its a season of time I’m blessed with being a stay home Mom, n now my kids r grown & independent, I also felt the freedom in going back to work. Many said I’m going against the flow 😂, but I’m fine with that & as I don’t feel the strain nor struggle with going “against the flow”.

More than anything, I feel so blessed & at peace. For that, I thank God 🙌🏼

Ok! Back to this blankie 😄 I stopped taking all custom orders, conducting sewing workshops obviously… but again, I find it hard to turn down this repeat customer, since it’s another request for to keep a child warm, secure & happy.

So here it is, I hope he loves it! 😘❤️

*PS: as for my fabric, I really wish to let them go wholesale to anyone interested in starting a fabric related biz. Pls be in touch with me, if you’re keen… I’m happy to give a flat rate for you to take everything I have in stock 👌

Hello Saturday 👋… and, throwback last Saturday 😆

This was completed last weekend as a special repeat customer requested a Minky Blanket for her son who chose the Minky color himself ❤️

Hope he loves this blanket as much as his other previous ones too 😘

I'm onto the Porcupine Pattern Qipao Jumpsuit bandwagon, a tad "late" (since CNY is way over by now) but its ok 😂

This was made with my daughter's measurements (who's taller, and 1.5 size smaller than me), so it looked a bit small/tight on me.

She requested for the long pants version, but I went ahead to make it with shorts, so that I can wear it too 😛

Collars: I'd wanted it to be abt 3.5cm tall, but ended up shorter than intended... but its merely a "formality", so its ok too... lol

Sleeves: I planned both to be in pink, but forgot to cut mirrored image, and since I didnt have enough of the scraps to cut another pc, decided to go with the floral. It turned out nicer (to me), as it flows seamlessly with the floral bodice 🙂

Buttons: I have the exact same "glittery" buttons in cream, and emerald green... all of which looked suitable with this. And, settled on the black, for more "pop". What do you think? I got them from Daiso btw 😀

I love this pattern, and alrd thinking of other variations I wanna experiment with (if I ever get to it!) hehehe

Now, hopefully the intended recipient will be willing to wear it for Racial Harmony day, or future CNY events in school etc.

Cheers!

Finally completed 🎉🎉🎉

I’m a slow tortoise when it comes to working on custom orders as I do things in stages, and leave it to “sit” before picking it up again.

So, every completed piece is an achievement worth celebrating 😄

This custom made piece was made for a 9 x 6 x 1 inch sized Bible, and I photographed it with a book with similar measurements but at 1.25” thickness.

For the first time, customer chose one of the hand-blocked Indian Cotton, and I paired it with dark brown interior & zipper for a complementing contrast.

I loved it! And I hope the new owner will love how it turned out too 🥰

Thankful for supportive customers who have been repeat buyers ever since I started my Etsy shops from 14yrs ago 🥰🥳

Last 3 of my ready stock Mini Accordion Purses cleared, as I moved away from inventories into custom orders only 🙏
