For just RM99!

El Chancho comes in 6 different colours!

Bashful Extrovert
She's inspired by my friend Lola - who is into Gothic fashion. Mysterious and quiet, she shows the loud side of herself through her zany, dark fashion sense. 

Misconstrued Saint
There was once upon a time, that I LOVED my Daisy Duke denim shorts! Dad used to be so cross with me, and I could never understand why. The shorts were comfy and didn't tear as easy as the cotton bermuda ones that mum would persuade me to use instead. Everyone needs denim in their closet. Right?

Fun Under The Sun
I love beige. It's a safe colour for everyone. I chose this colour to be part of my first batch because when I went looking for a poncho of my own, I wanted something plain. None of these baby-like designed material sort of thingy-ma-jig. I chose the wooden buttons to push a 'green message ' across. I hope to be working with bamboo material soon. =)

Exploding Factor
I cannot say no to chocolate. I have a fridge full of chocolates, and I even make my own pralines so I can choose the fillings that I want inside! And they say, chocolate is great for bonding time with your partner. Need I say more? =)

Wild Jane
I fell in love with this colour because it's so vibrant! Whilst shopping for material, I was caressing this material for the longest time before deciding on buying it. I wanted to go for all plain colours for my first batch -- unsure where this home business would lead me to -- I am glad I got this and the one below just to add variety to the first collection. 

The Forlorn Princess
This reminded me of a time when I was playing with gypsies in the UK while dad was studying there, and the whole family was brought along. I loved how they smelt (of oils and flowers) and how they taught me so many amazing things like map reading, building swings and tree houses, fishing by the pond. I was very cross when my neighbours complained to mum and dad that I was playing with the thieves. My parents, thank God-- were more level-headed than that. I think folks are just too judgmental. I can't wait to go back to Canterbury to see if they still live there.

Wheeee....

Just when I'm wrapping yet another El Chancho order to be sent out...

 I get this on my instagram feed. One of El Chancho's first customers who bought Exploding Factor a few hours after we virtually launched El Chancho Eleanor By Daphne Iking.

I truly feel so humbled with gratitude. Thank you Joe Lebosi, my love and hate sparring partner for pushing me to do this. Love you.

How to fold your El Chancho

Here's a short demo on how to fold your El Chancho neatly into a little pouch.

El Chancho comes in SIX

Dear Mummies, Here are the six designs to choose from:

THE BASHFUL EXTROVERT
Everyone has secrets. Dark and hidden. How mysterious. Bashful Lola loves her  red-eye cat. It's the sparkle to her eyes. Just like you. =)

EXPLODING FACTOR
50% of women claim to prefer chocolate to sex. Another study suggests eating dark chocolate was more rewarding than passionate kissing. Maybe I didn't have much chocolate back then, that's why now, I have you. What a bliss.

FUN UNDER THE SUN
Sandy loves the beach and who wouldn't? The sound of the ocean soothes any restless soul. I dreamt of you after walking along the soft and pristine sandy beach. 9 months later, my dream came true.

THE FORLORN PRINCESS
I met a bunch of gypsies  while looking for pansies as a centerpiece. The Princess of the lot showed me how to build a fairy house and I invited them over for tea. One day, when you're old enough, I'll show you how to build a play castle. Just you and me.

THE MISCONSTRUED SAINT
Daisy is always trying to help others in need, but has an unfortunate habit of landing herself (and her friends) into trouble. Comfortable in her soft, denim shorts, Daisy may seem naive, but she ain't a bimbo. I'm glad I had Daisy holding my hand, when you came into my world.

WILD JANE
The Ape man loves Jane for  a reason. Beautiful, intelligent and strong - there's also a wild side to Jane that brings out the animal in him. You're our strong, little Korak. x

El Chancho: 6 colours to choose from

El Chancho

Dear Mummy,

El Chancho, was inspired while breastfeeding my second daughter, Iman Daniella. I could not find a nursing poncho that I was 100% happy with, so I came up with my own design.

The stiff-curved neckline creates a ‘viewing window’ which allows me to peek through so I can keep a tab on my lil’ one discreetly. It allows ventilation so baby is kept cool while she feeds.

This nursing cover has adjustable neck straps and an inner pocket to keep wet wipes, pads and/or pacifiers, which folds in nicely into a pouch that slips in neatly into any bag.

El Chancho comes in 6 colours : Bashful Extrovert, Exploding Factor, Wild Jane, The Misconstrued Saint, The Forlorn Princess and Fun Under the Sun.

Get to know each member of El Chancho and the instructions on folding her via this blog.

Sewn with love,
