the day

It came, it went and now I'm older and have a fancy new camera with art filters to show for it (plus I swear a few new wrinkles landed on my face overnight).

embellish

Big thanks to Michelle of the newly launched, all Australian, Embellish magazine for including a project of mine in their 1st issue. I met Michelle at the Stitches & Craft show last year. But it wasn't until I received my copy in the mail that I realised Michelle and Kylie publish their own magazines. What a huge job that must be! 
Here's a little peek at my project included in the magazine. Available now.

A few pics from this morning. There were brownies, cups of tea and a few kids to keep us on our toes.

Staying up way too late and working on packaging.
A tiny part of an exciting new idea brainstormed with Jodie.

small

This week I had a craving to sew small, quick projects. A few needle books and purses to fill up the gift  draw. Simple sewing that's not rocket science, but gives me great satisfaction.

very soon

Last week I received the strike-offs for 'sampler border' yardage. I'm really liking this print and a little bit sad I don't have a girl's room to do up. I can see this as curtains. This will be printed up and available at the Stitches and Craft Show - Sydney, in a few different base cloths and colours.

show

The Stitches and Craft Show have TWO Sydney shows this year and even more exciting than that is the new venue! Can't tell you how excited I am about this. The venue looks awesome and much, much closer to the happening parts of Sydney. I'll be there selling my fabrics and playing host to some of the Melbourne peeps that travel up for the fun (it wouldn't be the same without my pal & Brisbane roomie, Sandra).
