My Creative Space

Here at Voodoo Rabbit central we have decided that it is time to try and do a few more markets and to extend our handmade range. We have been industriously cutting out felt shapes for Playing Card Bunting and Squee bunnies in various colours and sizes.

For more creative spaces head over to Kootoyoo.

Bunny Goth Apron

Last month Ky designed the Bunny Goth Apron and entered it into the Spoonflower Fabric of the Week competition for an apron design (with instructions) that could be printed in a yard. Her design came in 10th!

We ordered the pattern in so that it could be checked before we make it available for sale. Ky was going to make it up, but I thought I should do it instead. I can sew but I have mixed results when I make anything other than patchwork or plushies. I figured that if I could follow the instructions and it came out looking like an apron then we were onto a winner.

Here it is!

There were challenges in making this for me. I had never made pockets before. I had never sewn a ruffle either. I am super proud of myself! Admittedly I kept Ky close by to supervise but I can say that I made it & that it is AWESOME!

We are going to order some in and then sell them as a kit (for those that prefer to be their own hero and DIY). There will also be some pre-made for those that don't like sewing or don't have time to.

Let us know what you think of the design :D

My Creative Space

This week I have been working hard on finishing off a design for an upcoming Spoonflower Fabric of the Week submission.

It is a pattern for a sewn apron that fits onto a single yard of fabric and must include instructions. I have the apron design complete, now I just have to finish off the instructions.

Finished items this week include more bunnies from Cloud...

...and a manbag, hopefully this one will be metsy approved.

SOLA: Craft Fair - 1 June 2010

No Wishlist Wednesday today - we have decided to tell you about the Saviours of the Lost Arts Craft Fair instead :)

The Brisbane City Council organised a huge affair in King George Square yesterday to allow local artisans / crafters an opportunity to show off their skills with workshops and promote their micro-businesses by holding market stalls. It was a fantastic event and Voodoo Rabbit had a stall there.

Here we are - all set up and ready to go. Cloud is standing in front reading a supplier catalogue and I was  behind the table trying to quickly eat my breakfast. Cloud had to run off to her day job after set up so I was on my own for most of the day.

We had our handmade Voodoo Rabbit Stitches bags and cushions there yesterday but people weren't interested... they were after fabric. Lots of fabric! I was run off my feet all day. Luckily Cloud came up at lunch time so I could have some food. It was exceptionally busy while she was there. The beautiful weather for the first day of winter really drew people out of their offices and down to the market during their lunch break.

I also had a lovely time chatting with Ellie from Red Seed Studio who had the stall next to me. If you are in the market for beautiful hand screenprinted eco friendly fabric and products you should definately check out her store.
