Tuesday Stack - Small and Cute


This week's Tuesday stack is a selection of the smaller prints we have in store.  I love the softness of these colours.  

From Sevenberry the very versatile Rainbow Dot on Linen
Heather Ross's super cute Country Mouse in Green
New are these super cute Elephants in Elephant Parade by Kokka
And these little piggys - Piggy Wiggle (every 8th pig is got his bottom towards us).

And as a collage:

Day 5 - Visiting Kokka in Osaka

This is what the trip is all about - fabric, fabric and more fabric.  Today we visited the Kokka offices in Osaka.  The fabric is not manufactured here but is designed in Osaka.  The offices were very casual and the designers very colourful - much what you would expect of any creative environment.  Mr Sukuki who assisted us was lovely.

The New Shipment is all Unpacked

It is like Christmas around here for fabric nuts like me with a new shipment of fabric arriving.  Where to start...I am in love with it all.  If I don't love it I don't buy it!

There are the new Little Red Riding Hood Prints

The wonderful Daisy Chain Range by the two Aussies Cath and Kirsten aka Prints Charming (be still my heart)




Plus all the new Echinos, Melody Miller and heaps more.  You will have to bear with me while I take photos and load all the fabrics into the shop.  I promise to be quick.

Case Makeover - and last few days for the giveaway

Before photos - found one tired school case at the op shop.


I loved the lettering - I think JNC went to Palmerston North High School.  The inside looking a bit tatty.


And after...

I used steam a seam fusible web to line the case with the Vintage Roses from Kokka.  If you have never used steam a seam before - there is a warning - it can be addictive.  It is a bit like when you first discover sellotape as a child! 

Also if you have not already entered the giveaway it is still on - you can check it out here.
