Yeah! 这是我的第一个完成的拼布作品，包主是我唯一的妹妹，之前从升杰的部落格才知道百家被的意义。
**在中国早期的农业社会，当家中初生儿满100天时，小孩的父母会到亲朋好友家登门拜访，收集一些零碎的布料，这来自不同家庭的祝福，缝制成一件独一无二的温暖作品，我们称之为“百家被”。（也有称之“百纳被”或者“百搭被”）父母希望让孩子盖著「纳百家之福」的被单长大，期望他们平安长大。**
from sengkit blog虽然我没有能力去缝个百家被给我老妹，我把它改装成一个相机包，一样带着我的祝福给我老妹，他申请到纽西兰的working holiday的visa (1年）, 19号就要飞去纽西兰。希望他有个很好的人生体验^ ^
有些布已经有最少二十年的高龄。。。像老妈的橙色水玉布，我的老友Lennie，他妈妈的格子布。还有一片布是妈妈以前为大姨缝制衣服的布碎。还有好姐妹kucira送的花布，他知道我喜欢缝缝补补的就送我一块布（很棒的礼物！)再来就是我自己在古晋买的，也有一些在网上购买。
再来？老妹说他要手提电脑的包包，手机包包，电线包包。。。 要他老姐的老命咩。。。 -__-"'

Yeah! I finished sewing my first patch work product, is a camera pouch for my sister. Right after I visited Sengkit's blog. I finally understand the real meaning of patch blanket in chinese family (Actually if i use a chinese direct translation, it should be 100s family blanket)
** During the agricultural time in China, once a family have a 100days new born baby, the baby parents will visit their friends and family, and collect some scrap fabrics from them, they will use these scrap fabrics and sew into a blanket, it represent the blessings from different family, and this one and only piece, is what we call 100s family blanket. Parents hope that their kids will grow up with plenty of blessings with this blanket, and hope that they will grow up fine.
Though I am not able to sew a 100s family blanket for my sister, but i turn it into a camera pouch, carry my wishes for my only sister, as she got the working holiday visa from New Zealand, she will fly to Kiwi Land on 19 Nov. I hope she will have a fabulous journey.
some of the fabrics i used have at least 20 years, just like the orange polka dots from my mum, and Lennie gave me her mother's checked fabrics. There is a piece which my mum did sew it into cloth for my eldest aunt. And not to forget my good friend Kucira, she gave me a floral fabric, she know i love sewing ( a great gift!) and some i bought when i was in Kuching, Sarawak, and some were from online.
Next? My sister said she need a laptop sleeve, handphone pouch, cable pouch, she is trying to kill me i guess... haha
