my creative space

I’ve been playing with some great colours in my fabric collection that I’ve picked up recently from a friend’s de-stash and at a couple of local op shops.

Plus a huge pile of new designs were pulled out this week for the GoMA Winter Design Market on Saturday.

It’s been really nice working with different styles of stitching lately, so many ideas, so little time, only my most favourite will make the cut.

A bit of crochet on the go finishing off these little nesting bowls and more stitching, this time in tones of pink :)

 

In the coming week I'm hoping to start on some rag rug making, hints and tips very welcome!

It's all about hooking and stitching this week (hehe, as usual!) This project is a bit of an indulgence for my little home, I'm aiming for this crochet mandala to get big enough to be used as a cushion cover. The colour palette is clearly inspired by the piece in my home I'm most fixated by, my "Queenie" (this is a detail of it only). It was love at first sight up at Lockhart River last year between me and the beautiful rivers, flowers and pebbles in this painting.

Finishing off these little beach pebbles I collected over the Christmas break for crochet in the round at Brown Owls next month.

And more stitching, little sneak peeks of some new pieces I hope to have finished by this time next week!

It feels like every spare second and wee hour of the morning this week has been spent stitching, sketching and hooking in preparation for Saturday's BrisStyle indie Eco Market. It's all good fun though and I wouldn't have it any other way :)

I've been enjoying a bit of early morning jar cosy crocheting for this.

And thank you all for your help last week with those vintage hankies, I ended up going with the bunting and my lil sis loved it :)

my creative space... new designs

 

I've been spending lots of time in my space this last week working on some new designs for udessi and for the next brisstyle twilight market.

 

Inspired by vintage pull toys and sweet animals, it's no surprise that this little bird is my favourite so far :)

 

Intended for nurseries or kids rooms although I would quite happily hang them in my own room :)

 

Stay tuned, I have a few more sweet designs to come!

I'm working on a new product this week, a little one but a good one. All will be revealed at The Finders Keepers Market (and in my shop early November).

A little more chaotic this week with bushfire bunnies, boy versions of Dream Girl Port-A-Plush, Easter Chicks in progress and trial versions of new products. I'm loving it, I think I work better amidst a bit of chaos.

A big thank you this week to Sophie for awarding me with the Kreativ Blogger award and the lovely Little Chrissy for letting me know I'm fabulous, hehe. I'm running late for work so rather than bestowing these awards on other crafty peeps I would love you to check out the etsy shops of these two lovely ladies who both happen to make beautiful brooches:
