1. wow lots of bag hear i love it great site really informative i learned a lot great stuff keep it up - anna from ca/usa, March 10, 2010.
 

I am 24 years old and work as game concept artist in a game company now. I create my brand since a year ago. The strengths initially generated by my will to design and sew. My handmade are focused in fabric work on casual bag and pouch. I do offer custom made service for certain thing like laptop sleeve. Those who demand exceptional and exclusivity of handmade craft will appreciate my creativity in playing with fabrics.  Mainly, I focus on fabric stuff. All creations are handmade and I will only make once for each design. I create with different kind of fabrics and materials. No rules apply. This is the interesting part about handmade. I get inspired and various of ideas pop when I looking at those beautiful fabrics. Most of my supporter are Malaysian and I do sell my bags to overseas sometime.

It has been a year since I made my first bag. I get bored with similar style of bags people wearing while they call it as a trend. Thus I start to sew my own bag with any possible match of different type of fabrics and material to create the uniqueness. I started to sell my handmade creations in my blog when I need budget to get better fabric. Now, my handmade creations is available at my small little cafe. All this while, I play as designer, photographer, illustrator and even model for my brand. This is the interesting part to create my own brand. So, I learn a lot and try a lot of different thing which my daily job won't allow me to do so.

Sometime, people request I make a bag for them just like the picture of bag they send to me. It is a nightmare for me when people start to request what I should do for their customized order. All kind of funny idea will come out at this time which drive me crazy. I guess I only like to sew with my own idea. I guess the greatest achievement of mine is the things I have learn in order to build up my own brand. From a girl who totally no idea how to sew a year before until now my bag was featured in few magazines, newspapers and websites.
