Creative Cards

It is with much excitement that I show you all these new designs... three in all (at the moment anyway).

Creative Abundance the company who distribute all my patterns asked all it's designers if they were interested in putting together a design or two that would be small enough to go inside a greeting card!

I just jumped at the chance... all my designs tend to be on the diminutive side anyway so I was keen to be involved.

So here they are... Snorkel, Percy and Mr Mushie.. all complete with instructions, requirements and patterns pieces inside....Wow!

Be sure to check at your favourite quilting and stitchery store for all the 'Creative Cards'

Until next time

It has been a while!

It has been such a long while since I was here... almost exactly one year!

Well there is a really good reason... about this time last year I found out I was expecting a baby! An absolute bomb shell. This little darling would be our 4th and although very welcome it did come with a shock.

It also came with lots of very sick days!! which is why I basically shut up shop for the rest of the year and just focused on our family.

Well on 12th december 2011 we welcomed our son Alfie Daniel Gooding into the world, what an absolute joy he is... 4 months on we are really loving having him in our lives.

So here I am back in business and have released quite a few new things this year already... have a little look below... having a baby can be quite inspiring!

Until next time

Until next time

5 & Dime

This is my latest offering, a little bag to tote all your possessions.

I have used one of the gorgeous pieces of coloured linen I mentioned to you in a previous post, looks yummy with the very 50's red floral fabric.

It is called 5 & Dime, delivering it today to Creative Abundance, so hit the shops and request it, quite useful for an Autumn stroll!!

Until next time

April Showers

I would like to show you all my latest offering....

Coming into the colder months I thought a scarf for the Autumn weather was in order, I am a bit of a scarf lover myself.

Made from gorgeous linen and cotton fabrics and complimented by a gorgeous olive green velvet rose corsage.

As a little companion to this ensemble, I have designed a little clutch purse with a persimmon velvet clover.

I have also used two of my favourite vintage buttons to complete the picture.

Hope you like April Showers, Creative Abundance has it in their hot little hands so look out for it soon.

Until Next Time

Coloured Linen

I am one very happy girl!!!!

I have in my hot little hand, wait for it..... coloured linen!!!!

I have wanted and dreamed of using coloured linen for so long now, I have never been able to find it in Australia.

Here it is, like looking at all your favourite gelati flavours all at once and not being able to choose.

Well I did choose some for this visit anyway, My three favourite colours at the moment, Persimmon, Chartreuse and Aqua and a few other varieties of these and of course PINK!!

Where I hear you ask, if you live in Melbourne you are in luck, The shop is called The Fabric Store it is in Brunswick Street Fitzroy, there is also a store in Surry Hills in Sydney.

I will be using these in many of my up and coming designs so look out for them.

Linen is the most gorgeous fabric to use and for those of you who have worked with it before know what I mean.

Until next time

Blessings
