A set of completed bow ties

Most people have a soft spot for cute little boys donning a big smile and wearing a bow tie. Bow ties are not passe - they are fashionable accessories which will surely catch your attention almost immediately if you wear it the right way. In the medical fraternity, many surgeons, especially the gynaecologists, love bow ties because they don't come in the way of examining a patient, unlike the way a normal neck-tie would. Unfortunately, most people reserve bow ties for formal events, such as gala events and weddings. It's time to change the perception of bow ties - really! Bow ties are only Click to read more

DIY baby gate with fabric paint

Completed DIY baby gate

It has been a while since I spend time doing what I love to do the most - crafting! The idea of sewing a fabric baby gate came to my mind quite some time ago because I couldn't find a solution to block the staircase without installing a semi-permanent structure that will block part of the walkway. This project will work for you if both sides of the walls have something to hook onto. And the best part is you can remove it any time you don't need it. I bought a set of fabric paint from Artfriend. There are two types of such paint - one for light coloured fabric and one for dark coloured Click to read more

How to sew a simple square silk blouse

The completed square silk blouse

I have come across this simple square silk top during one of my shopping trips. And I rather like the fact that it has very simple lines and very comfortable to wear. You can dress it up for a simple night out or dress it down with a pair of jeans. For the purpose of this tutorial, I have followed the dimensions of a sample top that I already have. You can use any soft flowy fabric for this top - I find that silk or satin with a floral pattern works best. However if you are completely new to sewing, you might want to try out a less expensive fabric for this project. Use a tailor chalk Click to read more

My clarinet version of our NDP song by Kit Chan. Finally reunited with my clarinet after being apart for nearly a quarter of a century. 
Pardon me for my rusty skills. Decided to pick it up again during the circuit breaker period. 

Attached with the full lyrics:

Home - Kit Chan
Whenever I am feeling low
I look around me and I know
There's a place that will stay within me
Wherever I may choose to go
I will always recall the city
Know every street and shore
Sail down the river which brings us life
Winding through my Singapore
This is home truly, where I know I must be
Where my dreams wait for me, where the river always flows
This is home surely, as my senses tell me
This is where I won't be alone, for this is where I know it's home
When there are troubles to go through
We'll find a way to start anew
There is comfort in the knowledge
That home's about its people too
So we'll build our dreams together
Just like we've done before
Just like the river which brings us life
There'll always be Singapore
This is home truly, where I know I must be
Where my dreams wait for me, where the river always flows
This is home surely, as my senses tell me
This is where I won't be alone, for this is where I know it's home
This is home truly, where I know I must be
Where my dreams wait for me, where the river always flows
This is home surely, as my senses tell me
This is where I won't be alone, for this is where I know it's home
For this is where I know it's home
For this is where I know I'm home
