New in Store - 27th December 2015

I managed to get a few items listed on the website before Christmas. I now have a range of 2" waistband Elastic. If you ave never used waistband elastic before here are a collection of free tutorials to get you started :)


I also have a selection of fabrics and art panels from Studio T Green. Tammie is now designing for Riley Blake so these are the last of the fabrics that she has designed and printed under her own label.

New in Store - 20th December 2015

I must confess, I have had the fabrics below in stock for a month or two but they have just never made it onto the website before this week. My batik scrap packs are always really popular so I am trialling some bolts to see how they go.  
Adventures in Wonderland is a collection I had way back in the very early days of Voodoo Rabbit and it was very popular. I was so excited when it was re-released this year that I have purchased the entire range :)

New in Store - 8th November 2015

It is great to be back in Australia, I always love coming home after being over seas. It makes you appreciate how nice it is here :)
I have been busy back at work and have been adding new stock to the website including some new patterns from Australian designers Funky Friends Factory and Moonshine Designs. While I was in the States I picked up some new Serendipity Studios patterns including 7 brand new ones, all are now available on the website. 
I was also able to pick up some more plastic snap together grommets, these are getting harder to source in Australia so it was great to find another supplier. I now have 6 colours available including the new Matte Gold and the reintroduction of Shiny Silver.

New in Store - 28th September 2015

This week we received our first 3 rolls of Tula Pinks new Freefall range, these fabrics are 274cm (108") wide. It feel like cotton sateen but they are actually cotton with a chintz coating that is polished down so it has a bit of a sheen. Freefall is perfect to use as quilt backings, cushions, dresses and bags. I have the other 3 colours on order so hopefully they aren't too far away.

We now have the 40mm (1-1/2") polypropylene bag webbing in 3 new colours bringing the total colours available up to 6 (white, gold, red, royal blue, navy blue and black).

We have also received a new shipment of patterns from Serendipity Studios and premium solids from Northcott fabrics.

New in Store - 9th August 2015

The other week I went through the Alexander Henry distributor's warehouse to see what was available. There were so many fabric that I wanted to get but I had to narrow it down to a handful. I chose the following ones as most of them are out of print and no longer going to be available. In other news Sewline, who manufacture the ever popular Glue Pen are now making sewing scissors. These scissors are very high quality, manufactured in Japan and are suitable for both left and right handed sewists.

New Classes
We have added in two new classes for September, the fan bag which is suitable for beginner sewists and the Reversible Wrap Skirt which is a great class for sewist who want to give dressmaking a go. We also have another Frame Purse Workshop, after this one we will probably only have time to run this workshop one more time before the end of the year.
