fondly call me Suzy. I am happily married with
two grown Kids and am living in Houston. I was born in Singapore but

currently reside in Houston, Texas with
my family. I am constantly immersed in DIY house projects
like quilting, knitting, decorating-on dime, thrift store finds,
cooking, capturing memories with my camera.

this moment but I am still struggling
to get better with my sewing skills. Whenever
possible, I try and learn something new. I love to
download patterns from the internet and attempt them.

It is a challenge for me and when I get a particular pattern right, I am overjoyed. Most of the time I get remnants from fabric stores
and make clothes out of them. I am always
constructing, drafting,
and altering my next creation, which is usually
a dress, pencil case or a tote bag or quilt. You name
a dress, pencil case or a tote bag or quilt. You name
and I have tried it all. I love to make things and give
them as gifts rather than buying something from
the store. I know everyone loves a handmade gift.

One of my favorite times of the day is
dawn. There's something magical about that time
of the day.I call it the Golden Hour.
Mostly, that's the time I bring my dogs for a walk.
It has such a calming effect on me.

I want to make friends who have the same ideas
and passions. I love to travel

and visit countries. I hope that one day I will be
able to meet the friends I have made all over the world.

I am new to Blogging and this is my first attempt. I need some support from my Friends and Family. Sometimes I do get new ideas and would love to share it with my fellow crafters out there.
Honestly, when I first started visiting
India, four years ago, my main idea or
thoughts were to make lots of money and start my
own business selling Sarees and
thoughts were to make lots of money and start my
own business selling Sarees and
jewelery. But after a couple of visits there, I realized that I
have changed my thought process. During my last couple of visits to Chennai India, I just had a dying need to
help the poor and needy. I was lucky to befriend a beautiful
young lady who was teaching in one of the government schools for the underprivileged. Though she
had a wonderful career in the corporate world, she had
chosen to teach underprivileged kids and that motivated me.
It was truly inspiring to see a young girl who has such a big
heart to give back to the poor. I was very proud of her and
after visiting them in the school, I realized how lucky and
privileged we are and felt that it was time for me to give back
to the society what GOD has given me.
I am just currently hooked on making lots of bags and pencil
cases for the kids in that school. When I donated these bags
and pencil cases to these kids, the last time I was there, they were so happy and they were jumping
with joy just to receive these pencil cases and bags that I

I had bought,which cost me close to nothing.

My motto is "LOVE CONQUERS ALL!!!."
It makes the world go around and I am a true believer
