Sofa Slip Cover

Hi!

I finally got the chance to sew again. It was my plan last year to sew a slip cover but it is only now I got to really sew it with the help of  Yic of course <3. Just so you know, I'm not a pro on this, and the last time I get to learn and listen to a sewing lecture was during my grade school days. Our project that time was to sew an apron.

It's hard when you have no pattern and since I have not tried that pattern making in a large sized project just like a sofa, I decided to cut the fabric by pinning it to the sofa first so I get that nice and fitted slip cover. :)


I started figuring out if the amount of fabric that I bought will cover the entire sofa, however it's not. Instead of going back to Fabric Warehouse in Greenhills where I bought the fabric to get more or go to Ylaya in Divisoria which is the haven for fabric lovers, I just left the back of the seat hanging since it's hidden. Anyway, I can repair it once I have extra fabric. I have 4 yards of fabric by the way, so I think 6 yards is good enough to cover everything. I failed in calculating the amount of fabric needed on this project, now I know that when it comes to fabric, it's better to have more than just enough. What about you? Do you have any suggestions of tips for me? Feel free to comment and thanks for reading. :)

Grand Baby Fair 2018

Hi. It's been a long time since I've posted here.  There's just so many things that happened. I actually documented most of it however, tonight I just want to share my experience in joining this Grand Baby Fair 2018. I was just so happy to get this Swag Bag. This is yours if you have a Mom Card and if you spent 5000 in single receipt. So I just hoarded diapers, wipes and bottle cleanser.  I got disappointed when there's no Enfamil 6-12 months. They only have discount for Enfagrow. Diapers are really affordable. But hopefully next event there will be Lactacyd, Oilatum, EQ dry and Enfamil 6-12 months. :)

Baguio City and La Trinidad, Benguet Trip

The last time I visited Benguet was when I'm still working as a Project Manager in a company located in Ortigas, particularly in Tektite Building. It was Ate Cecille's request as her birthday gift from our boss. So everyone who is part of the certification program was included. During that time, the most visited was Sagada and Sumaguing Cave. That time I was only able to step, literally step on Baguio because that is where we are going to get our ride to Sagada. So technically speaking I never really had the chance to check what's in Baguio.
