Some more Love fabrics from Amy Butler and also some
fabulous new spots and stripes.
and some great new patterns from Anna Maria Horner
Great New Book
Quilts, Baby by Linda Kopp
I was in the shop today working away while the weather was going crazy.
I had some fun making up some new packs. These would be great starter packs for some of Kellie’s patterns from Don’t look Know.
A lovely Aqua and Lime pack
A bright bunch of Yellow, Orange & Pinks
A pack with Wild Thyme fabrics and a collection of co-ordinates.
All in pieces still but you get the idea.
I have used the natural colour in the linen/cotton fabrics that we stock.
Makes for an interesting background and it is also fabulous to quilt.
Number 3 niece, Chloe turns 3 tomorrow.
I have been busy making some clothes for the doll (kinder girl) that I made her for Christmas.
The first outfit that Wendy is wearing for you today,
is a ballet dress, complete with glitzy pink tulle.
now for some lovely striped pjamas, with a reversable top.
and last but at all least – a minkee dressing gown.
I want one too!
This new minkee design which is called raised stripe, is much easier to sew.
It doesn’t have the movement and stretch of the minkee dot.
I love new fabrics and these have definitely been getting in my brain asking me to sew something out of them!
I have mucking around with the idea of moving, I actually found a place just a little way up the road but unfortunately it didn’t work out. So now we are staying here! I have bought the building (54 Victoria Street) and am planning to do some renovations. Make a much bigger classroom is first on the list. Fingers crossed it will be ready for next year.
How exciting!
This fabric is just too cute!
This is my new toy…..
I have been keeping my eyes peeled for one of these little beauties for years.
Would you believe my lovely Auntie Dee had one in the cupboard that she
never uses. She got it for her 21st, and really didn’t use it much.
The Elna Lotus machines are very small and very light.
Fantastic for classes, traveling etc.
and it’s all mine!!!!!!!!
Lots and lots of new stuff has come in this week.
I have been very busy with the sale and haven’t had a chance to show you.
So here we go!
Henrietta Turtle, designed by Heather Bailey, has become my favourite.

I actually have one of these little fella’s visiting at the moment.
Mix Tape issue 12 has arrived!
We have packed up “Oh Christmas Tree”

A beautiful book arrived a couple of days ago, Rosalie Quinlan’s new masterpiece, A Stitch in Time. Full of lots of ideas from quilts, dolls to birds and stitcheries. Chock full of lovely photos too. We also have some of Rosalie’s fabric Grandmother’s Flower Garden which has been used in lots of the projects.
