Sukie Craft Pad

We’ve had such an overwhenling response to our little ol’ picture in this month’s Real Living magazine of our super cool Sukie Craft Pad!

I’m sorry to say we’ve sold out! We re ordered stock and have sold those too!! We’ve been informed that they’re now out of print and we can’t get them any more.

Sorry guys- but head over to the shop anyway, I’m sure I can tempt you with some of our delectable goodies.

Sisters’ Market

It’s that time again…

Saturday 3rd October 10am-4pm

Brunswick Town Hall

233 Sydney Rd Brunswick, Victoria

Belsize Square is at the Sisters’ Market this Saturday. If you’re in the area, come and visit. I’ll have fat quarter bundles of the new ranges, plus a great selection of sewing and embroidery patterns and yummy craft books.

New Japanese Fabric

Great new japanese fabric designs by Kokka.

Visit the store for more great New Fabric.

Hot Blossom Fabric by Josephine Kimberling

 Hot Blossoms in hot hues of pink, orange, aqua and chocolate and sharp shades of black and white. Vibrant, dramatic and fun!

Visit the fabric store for this and many other great new fabric ranges.

New Fat Quarters

We’ve put together some new Fat Quarter Bundles - a fat free way to have your cake and eat it too!

Our Fat Quarter Bundles  are a quick and easy way to purchase a co-ordinated selection of fabric.

Apple Fabric by Alice Kennedy

…even more great new fabric to tell you about.

Apple by Alice Kennedy. Stylised apples, apple trees and quirky owls in a thoroughly seventies palette of browns, greens and red. I’d love to see this one in a toddler pinafore.

Find it now in the fabric store

New Fabric: Mezzanine by Patty Young

Mezzanine is Patty’s new collection for Michael Miller Fabrics and was inspired by the fabulous stonework, ironwork, terraces, gardens and tapestries she photographed during her travels throughout Northern Europe. You can see the French, Belgian and Dutch influence of cathedrals, theaters, museums and castles in Patty’s designs.

Panache Fabric by Sanae

I absolutely adore this new Moda fabric range – Panache by Sanae.

Scrolls, spots and paisley in grown up muted tones.

Hushabye Fabric by Tula Pink

We’ve got some exciting new fabric to tell you about!

Hushabye by Tula Pink. Spring raindrops in the palest of blush and the craziest bunny toile you’ll ever see. This is a perfect range to make something for the spring baby in your life.

New fabric and cake!

New fabric about to hit the shop. Lovely yarn dyed mini plaids in pink and chocolate are part of the Charleston V range by Judie Rothermel. Mix them with the rest of the Charleston range or use them on their own to make up some of our children’s wear patterns.

Wee one turned three last week. Now not wee so much- maybe more midi. I think I’ll keep working on a new nickname.

We had a lovely party for him on the weekend to celebrate. Bouncy castle, helium balloons, gourmet Greek food as far as the eye could see (courtesy of my mother in law) and a Makka Pakka cake (as requested by the wee one himself) and lovingly- if not skillfully- made by me.

As always, it’s not a proper party without my Nigella cupcakes…

We were so busy with the party we didn’t take many pictures. Luckily a special friend deployed her husband to be our event photographer.

Fabric, quilts & birthdays.

Oh, it’s been too long between posts. Crazy, crazy sale, thank you to all the lovely customers who shopped ’till they dropped. We now have loads more room for the next round of goodies. Can’t wait (she says, rubbing her hands together in glee).

Super sale stash.

Also recently decided that the new Red Letter Days and David Walker Rockets ranges were far too yum to disappear without hacking into them for my own stash. The result?

A cute kinder nap time binkee for my pumpkin…

Tomorrow my wee one turns three- full of attitude, sleeping in a bed and giving up his dummy all by himself.

No more babies.

Sigh.

Can’t wait for this one.

This is something to look forward to. The new range by Heather Ross called Far, far Away. Expect it in the shop as soon as it arrives on these shores.

I just love her so much!
