plushies making

Not a very truthful title this time, it was not exactly plushie that I was making. But I can’t find a better phrase to describe this amazing output of mine during the summer holiday – A TOTALLY HANDMADE MASSIVE BIRTHDAY CAKE LOOKING ASSECCORY BOX.

I promised to make plushies, yeah I did. Just that I’m a practical person who prefers producing cute and useful items, like boxes, bags, card holders and etc. As for plushies, it doesn’t carry any practical use at all (except hugging it) so I may possibly make it, I don’t know XD

This cute massive box took me a month to complete, I made it for my sister’s birthday because she is my amazing cake maker. I just love all the cakes she makes, so I stitched this “cake” using cloth and cardboard paper. Making it looks difficult but honestly, it wasn’t. However, it was indeed VERY TIME CONSUMING. I thought I could finish it in, say, a week. Then I realised the strawberries are troublesome to make! Sewing “Happy Birthday” took me 2 nights though.

Although I can’t help complaining how frustrated I was in sewing, the satisfaction from having the final product done it was worthless. Sister was really happy and liked this gift very much. I’m glad that she uses it to store her accessories and places it on her desk. Now I’m really motivated to sew more :DDDD
