More Softies at Glebe!

I'm sure you've all seen plenty of photos of my market stall by now, so I when I met Kat on Saturday, I thought it would be great to show you all the work of another softie maker... so, here is Kat's stall... loving all her felt cuties and feeling a bit silly because I had the intention of grabbing one of those super cute pin cushion mugs... and completely forgot about it until I was driving home... not to worry, she and all her goodies will be back in about a month!

I am now the proud owner of a little 'coon' as they are called... the blue one with the paper bag over his head and pink heart-- more photos will definitely follow! Thank you Kat, and I urge you to go check her very sweet blog: Pico & Co... too cute! And like all good crafty people, she has an Etsy Shop here!

Happy Monday-- it's so weird and windy here at the moment, Henry and I are a little on edge!

Worst.day.ever!

P1018510

This is what my Saturday looked like! Although the sun did come up and actually get quite hot, and make things a little gross and unbearable at times! I decided to move my stall into a different spot, and I had a terrible day! I'm not sure whether it was just generally a terrible day or if moving my stall to a different part of the markets was the cause of all my woes... but I did talk with lots of other stall holders and some organisers who seemed to be all saying the same thing "stacks of people, no one spending!".


Such is life! I have now caught up on stock and can spend this week making things besides bugs-- bunnies, birds and of course do some screen printing!


So anyway, this is Jilly, my new favourite little bug girl- she is made from fleece, some pretty blue vintage fabric scraps from my nearest op shop, and this fabulous fabric designed by Liz and printed at Spoonflower. I bought it from her Etsy Shop, and she has a blog which I also love, called Paper Pie. She is very clever with textas, her designs are hand-drawn. The pretty blue flower-dots on Sofia are also by Liz, and I only bought a fat quarter, and it's almost gone! This never happens, usually a fq lasts a month or 2 because I use such small quantities, but I got a little carried away!

The gang.

More on some great fabrics finds a little later, but I'll just quickly share this great link with you, Mel Bomba-- a new etsy shop selling divine hand printed fabrics from Sydney- free shipping until the end of August, I bought some during the week and I'm VERY IMPRESSED! Photos later, but I highly recommend!

B, x!
