New Shots for Mathilda's Market

I took some new shots of my range, some of  which will be featured on the Mathilda's Markets website to advertise my stall. Thanks to brad and his expertise in photoshop they came up really well - 

Working with the bamboo batting is so easy when putting the quilts together.


This little doll comes from Kristen Doran Design, i'll post some pics of other cute ones from Saffron Craig soon. Love the simplicity of the design and easy to sew together.


Hand stitching the felt shapes on minimises the use of glue, a couple of well placed stitches feels right with my hand crafted style.

Mixing Japanese fabric and German felt dots.



I bought some beautiful stamps from Japan on Etsy, and they are so fun to use. I can't resist overseas design, but so happy i found the Recycled Card (post consumer waste) just up the road.

1st market in july

I've got my first market coming up on Sunday 5th july, from 9am to 1pm at Mathilda's Market, St Ignatius College Riverview, Tambourine Bay Rd, Lane Cove. Here's some photos of what i'll be selling - handmade kid's quilts, cushions in super cute fabrics from Japan, handsewn lampshades with gorgeous felt applique from Germany, lovely softie dolls from Saffron Craig and Kristen Doran designs and handprinted gift cards. 




The hand stitching detail is small, but a fun addition to a cute design.
