Monsieur Turtleton

I needed something motivational and inspirational for my studio. It's part of my whole 'making my life happier, anxiety-free and colourful ' resolution. I was thinking along the lines of a clever slogan or insightful quote as that is quite on trend at the moment. I have never been good with words... actually I take that back, I am pretty awesome at making up kids songs on the spot. I even managed to impress my Mister the other day after belting out a tune I pulled from thin air. So if everything else fails I maybe able to get a spot on Playschool. Anyway where was i going with all of this...ahh that's right... I managed a little print with my little Monsieur Turtleton. Okay so it's not quite insightful but it is FUN!

Babushka Doll Pattern

Hello there... Hope you all had a lovely weekend. We had a lovely hot weekend here in Melbourne - not that I made the most of it. I ventured to the shops and went a little retail crazy, there's so much fabulous stuff out there for Chrissy this year. I didn't even get to finish all the shops because I couldn't carry anymore!
Anyway, here is a pattern I did the other day. It's based on the Babushka print from a few posts back. Hope you like! xo

Hooty Tooty Owls

Hope you are all having a lovely weekend! I am a little sick, so today I played on the computer and whipped up a fun, bright Owl pattern. I was thinking I might get fabric made at Spoonflower for my sewing projects!!! I'm not sure what background looks best though. I think the purple works but I'm not really a purple person. I may even leave the background white - any suggestions?

Kokeshi & Elephant Giftwrap

These two giftwraps are products I designed at artwrap. I was pretty happy how they turned out and had a lot of fun creating them!

PortabelloPixie Pattern

Ok, the sewing machine needs to be set up soon. I have purchased ANOTHER Portabellopixie sewing pattern by Sandi Henderson - I just couldn't resist! Portabellopixie - 'Gracie' comes with 4 garment patterns and a lovely, coloured instruction manual.

Mmmm....pie

Today is day one. Yes, I have decided to stick my finger in the global design pie. I have had so much joy and inspiration from the many blogs out there, why not join the fun and take you on a blogging journey of what creatively inspires me!

As there is so much to share, I might just start with a little purchase I made today. I have had my eye on this gorgeous Portabellopixie sewing pattern by  Sandi Henderson for a while and now it's mine. You can visit her lovely website which also includes fabrics, free projects and a sewing school here.
