Sorry for the silence

Life has been a little busy the past 2 weeks.
Last week was the Craft and Quilt Show, Melbourne. Was a busy week for me, working for Amitie and Pfaff Sewing Machines... and this week the Pfaff theme continued with 4 days of Machine training.

More details and photos up this weekend.

Music Confession

I know this song is not a musical masterpiece but I can't help but do a little happy dance when I hear it... and the film clip - awesome. Not too sure about the blue hair though!

Cloth Fabric - INSTORE NOW

Cloth Fabric is a small, independent fabric company that specialises in furnishing fabrics, but for those that haven't heard Cloth has done a beautiful, lighter weight fabric suitable for patchwork and craft and I am very excited because Amitie has just added Cloth to it'd wide range of fabric!

The fabrics are printed on natural fibres (cotton, hemp, linen) and use non toxic ink. Designed by Julie Patterson and hand screen printed by her small team.

They are just simply devine! We will have Cloth with us at this weeks show (starts Thursday at Jeff's Shed - pop down and say hello)!

Wardrobe update...

Been busy today but really can't complain. Thought it might be nice to wear something at next weeks Craft & Quilt Fair that is made out of fabric here at amitie... Could not go past the Anna Marie Roundabout Dress made out of a beautiful Kaffe Fasset print (both available at Amitie). Can't wait to see how it turns out!

The litte things

It's a very grey day here in Bentleigh - it's cold and windy but something a little cheerful caught my eye...

Apparently the balloon fairy had visited and left a little surprise. Sometimes it's the little things in life that put a smile on your face!

Love of Gossip

For those who haven't heard it, I suggest you have a listen. Music for Men, the 4th album by Gossip is a favourite of mine! I loved this album from the moment I first listened to it. I think I drove Mum mad with it. We bought it on a work trip in QLD and being the only CD we had in the rental car it got played... and played... and played Sorry Mum. It has a great disco feel to some of the songs, but doesn't stray too far from their edgy indie-rock style.

You'll be singing and dancing in no time!

A day with the girls

Not very long ago a friend of mine asked me to be a part of her photo shoot. The idea: 3 girls, cruising around richmond, striking a pose and wearing a lot of badges.
I was a little nervous... but everything was OK and I have to admit it... I had a really good time! It was a day full of silliness and laughter.

 

I Think these photos really capture how much fun we were having! And it goes to show, all you need are good friends and a few brightly coloured walls to take some photos worth framing!
