New in Store - 19 October 2014

It has been a busy few weeks with the Brisbane Craft and Quilt Show. I think we are finally back to normal so that means I have time to start listing new fabric on the website. This week we have mostly new Alexander Henry fabrics from the Nicole's Prints, Folklorico, Santa Fe and Halloween collections. We have two fantastic new Alice in Wonderland designs from Cosmo textiles in Japan which were very popular at the Craft Fair. In fact there is less than half a bolt of each remaining. Last but not least is a horror movie blood splatter print from Robert Kaufman.

Fabric Friday - Happy Chinese New Year 2014

It is currently Chinese New Year so what better way to celebrate than with fabric :D

Wagara Chinese Zodiac Panel Black

2014 is the year of the Wooden Horse. Wood Horses are strong and stable and have a better ability to make decisions. Excellent at interacting with others, they are successful personally and professionally.

Left: Candy Party Handsome Pony Black by Kokka
Right: Horsey Horse/Unicorn Soft Toy Pattern by Funky Friends Factory

People born in the Year of the Horse are clever, kind, animated and energetic. Although they sometimes talk too much, they are cheerful, perceptive, talented and love to be in the centre of a crowd. They are popular among friends, active at work and have a deft sense of humour.

The lucky colour for Horse is green

Fabric Friday - Turning Japanese

Lots of new Japanese style prints have been arriving at the showroom lately. It's making Cloud feel very nostalgic about her trips to Japan so she put together today's Fabric Friday while reminiscing.

Harajuku, Tokyo. It pretty much does look like this! Bright lights, whacky hair, elaborate cosplay and fabulous food stalls. The vampire punk carrying off his girlfriend is pretty cool in this print from Transpacific Textiles :) Loud fabric like this would be great for the flap of a travel Satchel with a matching passport holder. Great fun to whip out at Customs!

Harajuku Anime Grey by Transpacific Textiles
Premium Solid Fuchia by Northcott

Aoi Has 2 Sisters is an ultra kawaii print from Alexander Henry. The Neko (cats) and Koi (goldfish) are adorable! The main print reminded Cloud of the hot springs she visited just outside Sapporo. She also flounced around the showroom with the A-Chan Border Print wrapped around her waist begging me to help her sew it into a pleated A-Line Skirt. I'll help her draft it but she's sewing it herself!

Kiku blossoms (Chrysanthemums) were on show in Osaka the first time Cloud went to Japan. They really are classical looking flower and this print is beautiful. Fans and dragonfly also feature quite a bit on traditional Japanese prints. It would be beautiful made up as a Torii Tunic.

Premium Solid Jungle by Northcott

Wagara Japanese Chrysanthemum Floral Olive

It's amazing how fabric can remind you of places you've visited and bring back memories. Does fabric ever inspire you this way? It certainly seems to 'talk' to Cloud!
