Terlalu luas definition for creativity. As my my self, how huge, wide, far u want to proceed, its border less. Initiative from your creativity sometimes make u come out with innovation. As an inventor it is necessary u will be an innovator. In term of scope for designing, me myself still exploring and trying to experiment many types of material to used in Beads Embroidery (BE). Don’t ever limit ur self and thing out of a box will help u to have a leap frog growth rather than organic growth!

As for today, lets me share one of my favorite material – FILIGREE (im so crazy with it) in embellishment for fabrics focusing in the art of Beads Embroidery (BE).

1. What is a FILIGREE?

Some of the eg. as shown below..enjoy d pics

pics 1.0 Square Shape Filigree

pic 2.0 Round Shape Filigree

pic 3.0 Butterfly Shape Filigree

“Filigree (formerly written filigrann or filigrane) is a delicate kind of jewel work made with twisted threads usually of gold and silver or stitching of the same curving motifs.

It is probable that in India and various parts of central Asia filigree has been worked from the most remote period without any change in the designs. Whether the Asiatic jewellers were influenced by the Greeks who settled on that continent, or merely trained under traditions held in common with them, it is certain that the Indian filigree workers retain the same patterns as those of the ancient Greeks and work them in the same way, down to the present day. Wandering workmen are given so much gold, coined or rough, which is weighed, heated in a pan ofcharcoal, beaten into wire, and then worked in the courtyard or verandah of the employer’s house according to the designs of the artist, who weighs the complete work on restoring it and is paid at a specified rate for his labour. Very fine grains or beads and spines of gold, scarcely thicker than coarse hair, projecting from plates of gold are methods of ornamentation still used.

Calcutta is a famous place for filigri work, traditionally known as Calcutti Work. Cuttack in the eastern India state of Orissa, is also famous for its filigree work. Due to lack of patronage and modern design ideas this is a dying art. Most filigree work revolve around images of Gods and Goddesses.” Source – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filigree

2. Where to get?

3. Uses

Most common - jewellery’s design in brooches, crosses, earrings, buttons etc.

Eg. as what being apply  Yati from http://www.riqzmiecreation.com/. Please browse through her site as me myself also a fan of her wire work! (cuma x berkesmepatan lg nk tempah..)

pic 5.0 Jewellary Wirework by Yati – Butterfly shape filigree

pic 6.0 Another Wirework – Butterfly Brooch

But as people trying to explore the tremendous usage of filigree, they started to use it in fashion eg. shoes, belts, hats, dresses, night gowns, abayas, blauses, tunics etc

4. My Design

Example of filigree sewn together with acrylic stone. If u wish to use Swarovski crystal – even better!

So, kelas rekaan crumble yg mana kite ade sebut spt dlm posting sebelum ni direka dan dicipta oleh umi pepari. Since ramai yg minat ianya dah menular bagai virus ke serta peminat BE. Pelbagai olahan rekaan crumble ni. So, kepada peminat senijahitan, kite akan share my version plak ye.. maybe yg lain2 tu seperti k.Ita (RozaBeads), Zai (Butterfly Beads), Sheik (Seri Manik) ada approach, method yg tersendiri dalam menyampaikan cara mereka menyulam crumble. So, this n3 is nothing personal and no other intention selain dr berkongsi pengetahuan kite kepada peminat BE khususnya.

My approach senang je, what u had to know ade 3 perkara penting dlm mengaplikasikan rekaan crumble ni:

1. Cara teknik sulaman yang betul (How  & Why)

2. Cara pemilihan warna (How & What)

3. Cara pemilihan material (saiz, jenis & such) (What, When, Who)

Dah clear on the above 3 most important things, then u may proceed whatever cara/corak/bentuk/idea rekaan crumble sekali pun.

Lets share some of the pics taken during the class..

pic 1.0 Antara bahan2 yang disediakan untuk kelas aritu

pic 2.0 Hasil sulaman yang telah dibuat selepas mengambil kira konsep rekaan

pic 3.0 Sulaman yang memuatkan penggunaan stone sebagai salah 1 option

pic 4.0 Proses pembelajaran sedang berlangsung

So, as can be seen from the above pics, cara kite, kita akan minta peserta kelas buatkan 2 option sulaman crumble ni:

1. option pertama: tanpa penggunaan stone

2. option kedua: dengan penggunaan stone

Tujuan dan objektifnya, supaya peserta faham dan grab the whole konsep of sewing the design. By end of kelas, dan bila mana& masa diaorg nk applykan rekaan ini, they may play around with their own way of doing it dan make it creative on their own way. Dalam erti kate layman – lu pikir lah sendiri! (pinjam quote Nabil jap..huhuu)

Yang penting never limit ur own creativity. Thats why kite selalu terapkan yg ptgnya adalah asas or platform kepada ape jua yg uols nk buat + niat + kesungguhan + keyakinan + passion + rajin..

Kepada yg nak cuba, selamat mencuba.. dan kepada yg nak jadikan n3 kat atas as a referance and guilines – silakan…

Wassalam.

Salam to all..

Just a Q throw out to me, and i did some search on the net. From my understanding and personal view, whatever stiches or embroidery look alive and stands out from the surface, we can call it as “3D beading” and most of the applications + implementations are towards beads jewellery’s making.

U may refer the definition below as a referance..

“3D beading generally uses the techniques of bead weaving, which can be further divided into right angle weave and peyote stitch. Most 3D beading patterns are done in right angle weave, but sometimes both techniques are combined in the same piece. Both stitches are done using either fishing line (most popular brand: fireline) or nylon thread (most popular brand: nymo). Fishing line lends itself better to right angle weave because it is stiffer than nylon thread, so holds the beads in a tighter arrangement and does not easily break when tugged upon. On the other hand, nylon thread is more suited to peyote stitch because it is softer and more pliable than fishing line, which permits the beads of the stitch to sit straight without undue tension bending the arrangement out of place. Right angle weave is done using both ends of the fishing line, in which beads are strung in repeated circular arrangements, and the fishing line is pulled tight after each bead circle is made. Peyote stitch is stitched using only one end of the nylon thread. The other end of the string is left dangling at the beginning of the piece, while the first end of the thread progresses through the stitch. In peyote stitch, beads are woven into the piece in a very similar fashion to knitting or cross stitching. In fact, it is not uncommon for cross stitch patterns to be beaded in peyote stitch technique. Peyote stitch patterns are very easy to depict diagrammatically because they are typically stitched flat and then later incorporated into the piece or left as a flat tapestry. Right angle weave lends itself better as a technique to 3D beading, but peyote stitch offers the advantage of more tightly knit beads, which is sometimes necessary to properly portray an object in 3 dimensions” (Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beadwork)

Some other observation found (from my personal research), some beader uses herringbone stitch or running stitch to make the baseline or so called platform. i’d tried a few sample and the output as shown in the figure down below.. lets enjoy the pics..

pic 1.0 3D using ‘Picot Edge Stitches” (Jahitan Pico Bersudut)*

My first trial through my very own observation from the net. Comments please? Will try to improve more ok.. (on going learning process. Should i get a gud and sincere teacher?)

Next, its another attempt using a running stitch techniques as a base/platform and build up by eliminating the space between the stitches. To vary the basic stitch, increase the number of beads picked up in each sequence; alternate the number of beads picked up every other stitch sequence; or we may pass the needle through more than one bead on the return.

pic 2.0 3D using running stitch (jahitan Jelujur)*

Sorry coz the pic is quite blurrr! Actually the pic was taken way back in 2009. (jenuh oooo.. mencari smula hasil keje tgn yg x seberapa ni…huhuu! at last, alhamdulillah..) Please bare with me.

Ok, that for today n3. Any comments for further improvement are most welcome..

Salam to all,

Ni semua kes si madihah, my lovely daughther – menunjukkan bintang2 yang dibuat pakai kertas? Ingat x? Dulu suatu ketika, zaman cite/drama korea/hong kong melanda, semua org sibuk buat ‘the lucky stars”, burung jenjang – the dream cather.. tu yg suddenly terpanggil untuk mengimbas kraf2 yang sempoi masa zaman remaja, dara sunti mengulit reben.

Segar bunga merah mengancam,

Cantik dipandang dipatah jangan,

Bunga reben penat disulam,

Hasilnya nanti terpahat diingatan.

Ni antara langkah2 nya..camne nak buat bunga reben dari reben silk yang kite korek2 jumpa dlm store. Belen 3 tahun lepas waktu kenduri adik bongsu.

Langkah pertama:

gamba 1.0 Lipat reben menjadi sudut segi tiga. Biarkan satu bahagian lebih pendek

Langkah kedua:

gamba 2.0 Kemudian, lipat reben berselang seli. Selalunye more than 10x

Langkah ketiga:

gamba 3.0 Bila dah abis lipat sampai hujung reben, pegang bhgn hujung dan lepaskan lipatan tadi.

Bentuknya seperti di atas ye..

Langkah keempat:

gamba 4.0 Tarik ekor yang panjang sehingga bunga menjadi sedemikian

Langkah kelima:

gamba 5.0 Susup jarum melalui kedua-dua bahagian reben dengan tujuan untuk mengikat hujung bunga. Dan jaitkan.

Langkah keenam:

gamba 6.0 Ikatkan hujung bunga reben menggunakan lebihan benang yang kite jait tadi. Simpulkan.

Langkah ketujuh:

gamba 7.0 Dengan menggunakan cutter, potong lebihan reben.

Langkah kelapan:

gamba 8.0 Inilah hasilnya!

Dah tengok cara2 nak membuatnya, lepas ni kite tgk plak cara2 gabungan bunga reben ni dengan manik dan labuci/jemeki. Macam2 rekaan boleh digayakan. terpulang kepada kreativiti masing2 lah ye..

Firstly, mohon kemaafan kpd yg ade text, call, pm or email kite pada tarikh kat atas coz ade yg dapat kite terima dan ade yg x. Roaming sometimes dapat, dan kadang2 tetiba je senyap. Hubby pun x dpt nk reach out. But anyway, kite dah try to answer all. Sekiranya masih ade yg tertinggal, pls sms or email me back ye..

Tanggal 26 June yang lepas, kami berempat (mak, adik, adik ipar & anaknye sorang umur 1 1/2 tahun + me) berangkat ke Jakarta-Bandung. Flight yg dijadualkan at 7am berjalan dengan lancar without any delay. We wake up early about 3.30 am and started to get prepared off to airport. My brother (dak yong) willing to sent us. Pagi2 bute, mata ni ngantuk lagi… I only managed to get about 2 hours sleep. Thats enough? But, fly early is usually my kind of choices. Cepat sampai kononnye..huhuuu

When we reached airport, the crowd is huge. Saturday morning, what do u expect? Right. So many Malaysian, flying to Indonesia. Kenapa la ye kite suka sgt ke sana? My big Q. For me (si tukang bawa), menunaikan tanggungjawab kepada bonda. She’s the one who really excited about the whole trip. Everything went smooth. We had about 30 minutes left before departure. Come and lets d pics do all the talking!

pic 1.0 with my dearest ‘Bonda’

pic 2.0 my brother with his familiy (wife – malina & son – awish)

We arrived at about 9.10am Malaysia time. For uols info, Indonesia is 1 hour late from our time. I wont change the timing on my watch as i prefer it to be earlier coz afraid we might be late due to over shopping excitement. In the plane, the stewardess will gave u 2 forms to be fill up and these forms are for u to forward to the Indonesian Immigation upon your arrival. Please don’t miss place the forms or else u wont be going anywhere and stuck in the airport!

pic 3.0 Upon arrival, Awish amazed with all the air planes

pic 4.0 Before checking in with the Immigration – welcome us

We were picked up by Pak Ugih – our driver (they call ‘supir (soopeer)’ in Bahasa Indonesia). I had arranged earlier with Pak Erwan but since he’s over tight with picking up tourist from malaysia, Pak Ugih also will do. The charges for 1 whole day touring by Pak Ugih was Rp450,000 = RM170 =USD49.732. Thats inclusive of all toll charges, tips to be given to the traffic guy (not the police man haa..), pertamina or minyak bensin (it means petrol) etc. So we just sit and enjoy the ride!

Our 1st destination was to Check In in our hotel – N1 which cost us Rp270,000 = RM90 = USD29.834.

pic 5.0 Our hotel – N1 (reason coz it was near to Tanah Abang shopping centre)

pic 6.0 The room charges per 1 night stay

We placed all the luggage within the hotel reception area (at the back of the counter), and be back after we did all the shopping activities in Tanah Abang (Block A) shopping centre.

pic 8.0 While waiting for our food

pic 9.0 Our Lunch – Sunda dish, Nasi Komplit- (grilled fish, fermented soy bean@tempe, tofu, salad & steam rice)

pic 10 Energy gained, so back on action! nice?

pic 11.0 Embroided Blauses – love it!

pic 12.0 Handbags section – be careful some may not original items (better shop back in Petaling Street)

pic 13.0 One of the dress with full beads embroidery

As for the above dress/abaya, the techniques used were detached stiches (manik tabur) & wings of sequin (manik bersayap). Simple! but look at the output, marvelous right?

Shopping tips in Tanah Abang:

1. Never bargain if u dont really want to buy

2. Once u identify which shop u want, start to bargain with half from the mentioned price

3. But, dont really stay long for only 1 particular shop coz u’ll find another shop at different floor with same item sold and cheaper! Act like u refuse and walk away. The lady/shop owner will start calling u back and we can talk further la..!

More pics coming soon in part 2..

Later.

Last monday, just in a sudden, teringin nak buat sulam benang. Benang ade, jarum ade, kain kosong pun ade. So, mulalah tangan gatal capai ape yang patut. Cari ram dlm galeri a.k.a stor. At last! Bila dah jumpa excited. Coz it ahs been quite some time x buat sulama benang ni. Mulalah letak kain atas ram. Sambil2 tengok AXN, bersemangat. Campak kejap baju2 customer. Beri laluan pada TE pulak ye..

Dengan teknik yg paling senang, which is “Long & Short Stich” (jahitan panjang pendek) kite pun mula lah create flower without any sketches. This techniques usually apply very well when u don’t have a specific idea in your mind. Dlm erti kate lain, BLANK! Xde idea laa..tapi hati nak buat jugak.. So inilah hasilnye. (please refer the pic below)

Gamba 1.0 Rekaan Awal Sulaman Benang

Bunga yang terjadi tu hasil hasil dari teknik jahitan panjang pendek yg kite main taram je cucuk2 dari atas susup ke bawah. Then untuk daunnye, kite pakai teknik “Fly Stich” (Jahitan Bersayap). Cekononnya saje direnggangkan skit jarak from 1 susupan ke susupan yg lain, nk nampak ala2 paku pakis le konon. Jarak dari kiri ke kanan kite lebarkan start from top slowly mengembang ke bawah. Baru nampak daun jadik kembang skit. Sambung pulak dengan “Threaded Back Stich” (Jahitan Kia) sampailah abis dan sambung buat kudup bunga yg kedua bersama daun2 lain.

Lepas tu, idea asal mmg dah set in my mind to plus a lil bit of MIYUKI Hex 11/0 as inti tengah bunga nak aksi dia nampak glittering. Boleh dibilang dengan jari maniknya. Hihiii.. janji ade. Utk code manik hex ni kodnya no 7. Kale ala2 oren gold, jenis silverline. Then nak kasi ade efek skit, im adding some glass pearls size 2mm cream color. Jahit jelujur je, main lekat2. Actually, saje nk ngada2 tambah.

Gamba 2.0 Enhancement With BE

Last skali, madihah requested to add some fruits or dangling like beads, so it will moved when she walk! Nampak begnya vogue skit.. budak2 zaman sekarang dah pandai kasi idea & demand some more. Jadiknya, tambahlah 1 biji buah beri2 kasi dia puas hati. Nnati nak show off katenye.. last output, please refer gamba bawah ye..

Gamba 3.0 Last Touch Up – Berry2

Amacam? Layan je lah.. bukan ramai pun anak pompuan sorang ek.. lepas ni kite tgk lagi hasil kombinasi TE & BE atas baju raya cotton madihah punya plak. Yg ni kene sedondon. Setiap kali buat utk baju, hair band + hair clips kene same tema. X same x nak pakai.. mengada2.. tapi maknye pun suka.

Till next n3..

Enjoy the post!

Masih ramai lagi yg bertanye bagaimana menyulam bunga dari sequin. Cerita kali ni, pernah kite post dlm n3 di kedaimanik tapi mungkin ramai yg x perasan coz masa dlm versi yg lama. Kini, bila kedaimanik dah diupgrade, so n3 nye ilang.

Sehubungan dengan pertanyaan bunga sequin ni lagi, kite pastekan cara2 nak menyulamnye dengan mengubah penggunaan material dari sequin curve 6mm kepada sequin flower bowl saiz 5mm. Hopefully, n3 ini dapat membuka idea kepada yg x dapat nak visualise proses sulaman bunga sequin ni.

So, please refer pic and steps shown below:

1. Lukis bulatan menggunakan erasable pen ke atas fabrik. Kemudian, masukkan sekeping flower bowl (kale ikut citarasa) secara menangkup ke bawah dan disusuli dengan sekeping flower bowl dengan mengakup/ tengadah ke atas. Teknik ini same dengan teknik manik bersayap (wing of sequin).

2.Susupkan jarum kedalam fabrik menghala ke bahagian dlm bulatan dengan mengmbil kira jarak jejari sequin. Ulangi langkah 1 sehingga penuh garisan keliling lakaran tadi.

3.Kemudian, isikan bahagian tgh dengan sebutir mutiara kaca (glass pearl) saiz 6mm sebagai inti. Pilihan lain, anda boleh mengisi inti bunga dengan teknik manik 3 serangkai (three beaded beads)

Sekiranya bulatan anda besar, kemungkinan anda perlukan lebih dari 1 kali lilitan sulaman utk memenuhi 70% ruang lakaran. Apa yg penting kat sini, pertukaran material bole mengubah hasil akhir (output) sesuatu rekaan. Jangan takut utk mencuba pelbagai material.

Selamat mencuba!

N3 kali ni kite tgk camne kerja2 menyulam manik pada selendang dan kombinasi teknik2 yang menbentuk rekaan penuh. Kerja-kerja sulaman pd selendang terpulang pada beader tersebut bagaimana rekaan dibuat ke atas selendang. Untuk menjahit selendang, bahan utama adalah fabrik yang bakal kite pilih. Untuk selendang, seeloknya terdiri dari kain yg lembut spt sifon crepe, sifon gorgette atau sutera supaya ianya akan nampak jatuh dengan sekata. Selendang atau layah amat cantik digayakan dan mampu merubah wajah sekiranya kena dengan gaya ikatan.

Bahan yang diperlukan adalah:

1. Fabrik pilihan anda

2. Pilihan lace untuk bahagian tepi selendang atau layah

3. Benang senada fabrik

4. Jarum

5. Manik2 atau sequin pilihan hati

Pertamanya, selendang yg telah siap dipotong mengikut saiz perlu dijahit bahagian tepinya bagi mengelakkan fabrik berbulu.

Gamba 1.0 Jahitan tepi selendang

Kemudian, lekatkan lace sebagai base utk sulaman manik. (peringatan di sini, fabrik perlu digosok terlebih dahulu bagi memudahkan process menyulam manik. Kain yang renyuk akan menyebabkan gangguan kepada kite sewaktu menyulam.)

Gamba 2.0 Lace dilekatkan ke atas selendang/layah

Setelah siap melekatkan lace, sulamkan pula pilihan manik2 dan labuci ke atas lace tadi bagi menyerlahkan lagi selendang atau layah anda!

Gamba 3.0 Tambahan manik atau sequin

Untuk selendang yg ini, sequin flower bowl warna dark brown digunakan keatas kelopak sequin yg sedia ada.  Antara tips yang boleh diconsider ketika memutuskan untuk memakai selendang atau layah, anda harus:

1. Mini telekung mesti ringkas andai layah yg digayakan sudah dihiasi dengan jemeki atau batu permata

2. Apa jua hiasan pada layah ia harus tidak menyemakkan bahagian kepala dan muka

3. Hiasan layah perlu dijahit pada bahagian tepi layah sahaja. Elakkan hiasan yg terlalu penuh dan merimaskan.

4. Andai mahu menggayakan tiara, pastikan dari bentuk bulat.
5. Elak menggayakan tiara kecil atau separuh kerana ia akan kelihatan janggal bg pengantin bertudung.

6. Jika mahu menghias layah dengan renda pastikan memilih renda yang berbunga kecil. Elak memilih renda berbunga besar kerana ia membuatkan bentuk wajah anda tidak seimbang.

7. Pemilihan batu permata atau jemeki juga harus diambilkira. Elak memilih batu permata atau jemeki terlalu sarat. Jangan ubah diri anda dari pengantin kepada penari.

(Sumber tips: Pesona Pengantin, Oktober 2002)

Untuk WIP baju2 yang sedang disulam dengan manik dan labuci, mari lihat sulaman yg sedang dibuat atas baju batik kite sendiri. Baju ni, baju raya tahun lepas yg belum sempat dimanikkan. Setelah dipakai beberapa kali, jan 2010 ni baru ada kesempatan untuk menyulam manik & labuci.

Bahagian tangan yang disulam adalah pada kaf hujung lengan baju. Kite sengaja memilih bahagian ni coz nak highlightkan tangan. Leher x payah la.. teknik-teknik yang digunakan kat sini adalah kombinasi kepada semua teknik2 yang kite ajar dalam setiap kelas sulaman BE. Apa yg penting, kreativiti beader tersebut untuk menggabungkan apa jua teknik.

Gamba 4.0 Bahagian hujung lengan kaf

Antara teknik yang kite gabungkan, manik bersayap (Wings of sequin), 3 serangkai (Three Beaded Beads), looped stiches & detached stiches. Cubalah combinekan color2 anda sebelum menyulam.. insya allah u’ll learn!

Gamba 5.0 Pandangan dekat hasil sulaman

So tunggu ape lagi, bolehlah cuba. Yang penting sabar…..

Wassalam..

Lately masih spt biasa, bz ngan keje ofis sampai kene perli ngan office mate x sempat update blog. Ok, kite mengaku ye! i’d been lil bit ignorance towards my blog but still masih di dalam hati. Thanks to those yg masih lagi support this blog.

Orait, since cerita kelas on the spot kat IOI Boulevard dipaparkan, ramai yg bertanye macam mana nak jait bunga sekuin spt yang dibuat oleh K.Ann. Talking about K.Ann, hopefully she managed to finished the baju pengantin on time. Hopefully, design yg kite suggested will help her through.

So, tanpa membuang masa with the subject above refers. Untuk bunga sekuin kali ni, kite menggunakan syiling saiz 20 sen. Actually, asas nye same untuk membentuk kelopak bunga iaitu menggunakan teknik ‘Manik Bersayap (Wings of sequince)’. Cuma, apa yg lainnya disini, susunan kelopak bunga dibuat dari sequin yg berlainan saiz. Seperti yang K.Ann belaja aritu, teknik masih same cuma kali ni instead of 2 keping sequin, kite gunakan  3 keping sequin saiz 6mm jenis transparent kale merah, sequin saiz 4mm flat kale putih, manik MIYUKI 11/0 RR code 1006, 8 dan manik MIYUKI 11/0 hex code 26.

Sebelum start menyulam, pastikan semua manik yang dikehendaki dipilih dengan skema kale yg betul dan ketepikan. letakkan atas piring atau tutup tupperware supaya manik x lari merata-rata. Then, yg penting, lakarkan bulatan sebesar duit syiling 20 sen.

Gamba 1.0 Lakaran bulatan

Then, dari 1 bulatan kite bahagikan kepada pecahan 8 sama rata. Lepas tu, make a knot (simpulan) di bahagian belakang. Masa, dolu2 buat ni siap pakai pembaris nak bahagi sama rata nye  pasal. Tapi setakat ni, abaikan je. Tangan dah mmg sedia maklum.

Lepas tu, masukkan 4 butir manik MIYUKI 11/0 RR ke dalam benang, diikuti oleh sequin flat 4mm, curve 6mm dan jaitkan ke empat-empat penjuru.

Gamba 2.0 Set 4 penjuru awal

Abiskan ke empat2 sudut. Then utk set 4 sudut yg lain kite, terpakai 11/0 round 2 butir, manik hexagon dan barulah jadi deretan sequin.

Gamba 3.0 Kelapan2 penjuru telah disiap di sulam

Yang kite nak ingatkan disini, bila tarik tu kene kuat dan kemas. Lihat cth penggunaan kale kat sini, kite purposely pilih kale2 garang dan kontra untuk memberi impak kepada bunga kat atas. Then, untuk membuat 2nd layer, kene ulang balik tapi kali ni dijait di antara lingaran bunga yang pertama. Meh tgk susunan sequinnya.

Gamba 4.0 Jahitan 4 penjuru.

Lastly, once finish inilah hasilnya. Kalau rajin, buka dan cuba wat banyak kali sampai mahir.

Gamba 5.0 Sekuntum Bunga Sequin

Tipsnya kat sini:

1. Pembahagian kene sama rata. Kalau x sama rata nnti sengetlah bunga.

2. Mula dari tengah dengan 1 simpulan

3. Tapak kene ade supaya bunga nampak kukuh

Hopefully, this will help kepada orang yg nak sulam bunga sequin.

Selamat mencuba!
