Mdm Ong’s<br />
Patchwork Passion<br />
She’s in her 80s, her right arm severely impaired by a stroke,<br />
and she needs a wheelchair to move about.<br />
Yet Mdm Ong inspires us with her lovely patchwork. Daily, she<br />
would sit at her sewing machine by the window, patiently<br />
piecing together numerous bits of triangular-shaped fabric.<br />
Day after day she continues, until finally, another lovely<br />
patchwork blanket is sewn.<br />
The enormity of her patience, perseverence and effort dawns<br />
on you when you stop to think about it. For example, just a 5x5<br />
feet blanket would need some 1,300 small triangular pieces<br />
to be cut and sewn together.<br />
The painstaking effort begins with choosing different<br />
patterned fabrics, then cutting them into small triangular<br />
shapes, then joining them into squares, then forming<br />
bigger squares, before finally sewing them together into<br />
a lovely patchwork blanket.<br />
A great variety<br />
of fabrics with<br />
nice patterns are<br />
chosen and cut<br />
into numerous<br />
small triangles.<br />
The triangular<br />
pieces are<br />
slowly sewn<br />
together to<br />
form many<br />
square blocks.<br />
Mdm Ong’s lovely patchwork blankets are part of our<br />
“ELDERLY ENTERPRISE” community project in support of<br />
elderly’s efforts. See next few pages for some samples of<br />
our elderly’s creations. You can order these items to be<br />
made for you.<br />
After days of<br />
patient work,<br />
the blocks are<br />
finally sewn<br />
together to<br />
form another<br />
lovely patchwork<br />
blanket.

... where CREATIVITY and SOCIAL ENTERPRISE merge<br />
“Friends may let you down, but not teddy bears.” That’s so true.<br />
Teddies are among the most wonderful gifts life has to offer.<br />
And it is the desire to bring the heartwarming world of<br />
teddies to friends and others that <strong>Teddy</strong><strong>Thotz</strong> was born.<br />
Here, you’ll find teddies that are quite out of the ordinary,<br />
and more adorable precisely because of that.<br />
While Teddies warm our hearts, creative people bring<br />
joy to our life with their amazing creations. Even the<br />
most common everyday things become unique and<br />
uncommon in their hands. <strong>OneKind</strong> is all about such<br />
