Slow and steady

Well last night I stayed up late to stuff my snails my new line of softies for the show. This is my 1st prototype turned out ok but have since made a few changes and now I'm very happy with how they have turned out.


I have made just a few to take with me to the Stitches and Craft show and they will be on sale there I'm not sure if I'm going to make a pattern to sell at the show for my snails as I'm not sure people would be interested in making one??
A penny for your thought's??


Lots and lots of snails..........
Must get back to sewing lots more to do and more posts to come.

My Little Birdie



Well Today I spent the day making a little bird cage with Harrison at my feet. I just love the way it turned out it is so very cute and is going to be my new decor range for my one line shops.
If your interested in purchasing one of these lovely birdie cages I should have some listed in my shops by the end of the month will also be taking custom orders for other colour collections if the choice of fabrics don't suit.

Don't forget to visit my shops often as I'm always updating my range...



Also the DUST team (down under street team) will be having a massive Christmas in July sale for the whole weekend begining 25th July ending 26th July so don't miss out.

Madi & Me Banner

Ok my friend Sarah has been working hard on her new business called Madi & Me she named it after her daughter who is only 3 weeks older then Harrison and cute as a button.
Any way I'm so looking forward to seeing her stall at the Mathildas Market this Sunday.
She is selling Childrens clothing and bibs and they are just beautiful. She asked me to make a banner for her market stall.
This is the finished product and I just love it.

The materials are mostly Michael Miller Fabrics along with some Dick and Jane. The fabric's just suit her products.

So if your looking for somthing to do on Sunday come down to Lane Cove and check her out.

Tell her I sent you LOL!
