car caddy (and my new year resolution)

you all know how rafael likes to bring his cars out wherever he goes, so when i learnt about this project, i know it's the one craft that i wanted to make for him. i especially like it that the caddy is unique and not available in any shops at all, and that i can make a good use of a pair of my old jeans that almost went into the recycling box.

i don't know how to operate a sewing machine yet, so i had to sew everything by hand. i know my sewing/embroidery is lousy... but i guess our little buddy won't mind.

it took me about 1 week to finish the pouch, squeezing time here and there from not surfing the net during rafael's naps, going to bed later and getting up earlier, etc. it's definitely a great reminder for myself that i can finish a whole lot more if i make a more efficient use of my time. and that if i'm really determined to do one thing, i should be able do it.

the schoolbus tag i made last time has gone missing and i was a bit upset. i think i would weep if this caddy is gone.

花了好幾小時，縫了好多百針，終於做好了這個原本要用車縫的玩具車收納袋／玩具墊。我知道我縫得不夠好，但那才好讓人知道這是手縫的嘛。昨天在咖啡店還引來一位外籍男孩的羨慕目光。:P

我的愷愷，趁妹妹未出世，很想把握機會為你做更多呢。

不過放產假時，其實我希望可以有空鑽研車衣，聽說裙子不難縫呢！

爸爸常取笑我不會做飯，又連褲子都不敢讓我來改，要找奶奶代勞。哼，我就要做好給你看，你等著瞧好了。
