Thank you for supporting my blog and following my crafting/sewing journey since 2011. Happy to announce that The Cotton Shoppe website has finally gone live! I know this has taken an incredibly long time due to work and family commitments, and taken a back seat since the onset of COVID19. However, I’ve been working very hard on the website development […]

The launch of our Kokka fabrics in August […]

As mentioned in my previous blog post, I was so blessed to receive the distributorship for the Nani IRO fabric collections. They were on my #1 wishlist and I love every single […]
I’ve always been in love with Japanese fabrics since I started sewing. Their designs are too cute and I love the quality of Japanese cottons with their unique weaving. Kokka, Cosmo, Yuwa…these are some of my favourite Japanese fabric manufacturers. However, they are so expensive to ship from Japan or elsewhere. Over in Singapore, it is very difficult to find […]

Although this is my first attempt, I readily agreed as it looked pretty easy to sew. Most importantly, I think this is going to be a fun project and will look really cute […]
