Sketching with Old Psion PDA

Got this Psion Series 5 in flea market and we decided it to make a test: Sketching!

It's not bad at all! And the result is fantastic for a pre-2000 PDA. Much better than Newton MessagePad 130, not to mention how easy to retrieve the file from Psion to the modern desktop device like MacOS via CF card.
Try retrieve images from Newton to MacOS X, you will end up dealing with obselete serial cable, obselete software & obselete system (read: MacOS 8 or classic).

Some sketches with Sketch software.

And this is our 7 years old daughter's quick sketch :D

(DIY) How to Make Draped Cardigan

It's spring time and it's time to wear a light cardigan....yay!! I've been wanting to buy light draped cardigan, but this is not the best time for shopping. We have to save more money because this year Leia is going to school. So I had an idea, why I didn't make my own draped cardi. All I need is only my old t-shirts or just bought some chepo t-shirts :). Easy peasy!!

I will show you how to make it and I hope it's clear enough to be followed

Step 1 :
Cut vertically in the middle of the t-shirt



Step 2 :
Cut diagonally across the bottom of the t-shirt



Step 3 :
Do it both sides and save the triangle scraps



Step 4 :
Cut out the neckline



Step 5 :
Sew the remaining triangle scrap to the vertical side of the t-shirt. Cut out the fabric excess.

VOILA!!!



And now I'm so happy because I have 3 new draped cardigans.
