Crochet beaded rope

| at 6:12 AM

27th June 2020 (Saturday)

Another weekend is here and gonna be over soon after tomorrow.  Haiz!   How I wish there would be more than 24 hours in a day.  

Well anyway ..... here is my work in progress for the moment.    Picking up bead crochet again after stopping for quite awhile.  Was destashing some stuff when I found my seed beads and cotton threads.  Asked myself why don't I start bead crochet again since I have all the materials.  So, I ended up crocheting this pattern after browsing on Pinterest.  

Not sure yet whether to turn it into a bracelet, choker or long necklace.  Its an 8 around with size 11 Miyuki seed beads.  I will update with a photo when it is completed.


Thank you for reading.

Till then, have a wonderful and productive weekend peeps!

Hello!  How is everyone getting on?  I hope everyone is well and fine during this Covid-19 pandemic.

Malaysia is now in RMCO stage but everyone still has to take the necessary precautions and practise the SOP when outdoors.

I travelled out of state yesterday to deliver these bags to my customers.  They were completed for quite awhile but due to the lockdown since March 18, I have not been able to make delivery.

Carrot Cake & Tomato Rice with Spicy Tomato Chicken Dish

| at 2:57 AM

3rd June 2020 (Wednesday)

This carrot cake was from last week's baking session.  My first time baking with this recipe.   I like the texture of this cake, loaded with finely grated  australian carrots and walnuts.  No butter used, just corn/vegetable oil.

The top, middle and sides applied with cream cheese frosting, then garnished with some grated carrot and chopped roasted walnuts.

I gave this 🍰 a 👍and will definitely use this recipe again.





Above is today's lunch which is a Malay/Indian dish.
Tomato rice (long grain or basmathi rice) with Spicy Tomato Chicken and Pickled Vegs.

Have a wonderful day!

Crochet Beaded Rope ~ Necklace and Bracelet

Labels: | at 5:47 AM

2nd June 2020 (Tuesday)

I was in my early 20's when I first learned to crochet beaded ropes.  It was taught to me hands-on by my then office colleague.  However,  I got distracted iver the years with my job and marriage and forgotten about it until a few years ago when I started beading again.

Sharing some photos of the beaded ropes.  All these were done some time ago (3 to 4 years ago)


This one is so colourful.  Found the pattern on Pinterest.  I made it into colourful sections but the main character is still the black/white cat.  It's a very long necklace that you can also wear it as a multi strand bracelet on your wrist.

Thinking of pursuing this hobby again since I have some leftover seed beads.  How I wish there would be more than 24 hours in a day.

Thanks for looking !  😊
