Merry Christmas, friends! 🎄

Due to my Secret Santa and my mum getting me duplicates of a gift, my sewing stuff is now more organised than my life. 🤭
A photo of two drawer organisers stacked on top one another. Each organiser has nine drawers. The upper organiser holds thread, while the bottom one holds sewing accessories like zips, elastic bands, and buttons. The organisers are placed on a brown table and are stacked against the wall.

Yups. He has his wife waiting back home too. 🙃
A screenshot of an article about Amirul Arif Bin Mohd Yusof: "He threatened her that if she told people, no one would believe her because of his position in society. "She would ask him if it was rape, and he would say, No, rape is violent', but it was violent, it was rape. She was left bleeding sometimes. She has had to have medical procedures because of internal damage he did to her during rape. "It was also escalating. We do not know how far he would have gone if she did not tell someone." The girl, now 17, attempted suicide three times last week over the stress of her abuser's criminal case finally coming to an end Her mother went straight from an emergency department to court last Tuesday after her daughter attempted to end her life the night before. She wanted to be in court on behalf of her daughter to see Yunos sentenced. Yunos (38), of Hollystown, Dublin 15, was jailed for eight-and-a-half years last Tuesday on eight charges of sexually abusing and grooming the girl. He pleaded guilty to six counts of engaging in a sexual act with a child under 17, one count of sexual exploitation of a child and one of meeting a child for the purpose of sexual exploitation. Questions have been raised in legal circles and among members of An Garda Síochána as to why he was not charged with rape. With 14 months already served, and an automatic right to 25pc remission, Yunos will be due for release in just under five years. He will then be deported to his native Malaysia, where his wife - who the court heard has stood by him - lives, as do many members of his extended family. The girl was not a patient of Yunos. The psychiatrist was known to her parents, and when they asked him for a recommendation for their daughter, who was suffering from mild anxiety after Covid, he offered to give her therapy. "I will never forget his smile when we asked for his advice. Little did we know he is an opportunistic sadist who would abuse his position of authority," the girl's mother said.

So just a heads up that if you want your threads to show in one line instead (left pic) of that odd multiple line feature (right pic), then go to your Settings > Content and Media > Thread Preferences and turn off the experimental feature for showing a threaded view.

Got to watch SIX the Musical in Singapore and this memory will forever be engraved in my memory. 🥺❤️
I am wearing midi length blue dress and standing in front of a backdrop showing the performers of SIX the musical. A photo from the encore performance of the musical. The stage flashed in different colours of the six queens and is currently red for Anne of Cleeves.

Ahhh these kopitiam-themed pouches by Komuniti Tukang Jahit are so cute!!!! 😭❤️

All photos from their online store: royaleculture.com
A fabric pouch with a cute illustration of cendol. Cendol is an ice-based dessert popular in Southeast Asia. The illustration is of the dessert, topped with syrup, green jelly strings, and red beans. There are also small tigers climbing the dessert like it’s a mountain. A pouch in the shape of an illustrated tiffin carrier. The three-tiered tiffin carrier is turquoise and yellow coloured. There are illustrations of flowers on each tier. Small tigers are drawn hanging on to the tiffin carrier. A fabric pouch with the illustration of a ceramic cup and saucer. In the iconic kopitiam style, the cup features a drawing of a tiger in green. Within the cup sits black coffee. A neon green plastic spoon is laid on the saucer. A box containing four fabric pouches, each one featuring a different kuih. One of the kuih shown is of kuih lapis, a sort of steamed cake made of rice flour featuring different coloured layers. Another kuih shown is the angku kuih, a bright orange kuih shaped like a turtle’s shell and typically filled with mung bean paste.

There’s this little fashion design exhibition happening at Pavilion Damansara and it showcases heritage textiles in different designs, all by students it looks like. It’s so lovely! Think like a SEAsian Met Gala of sorts.
