New In from Riley Blake
We are excited to have some new pre cuts & sewing notions available from Riley Blake Designs.
First of all, Lulabelle by Dodi Lee. This range has a sophisticated palette of purple, pink, mint and navy. The bird & birdcage illustrations along with floral elements bring a feminine feel, which is balanced with modern geometric & medallion prints to give a well rounded & contemporary collection suitable for a huge range of sewing projects.
Next up is Calico Days by Lori Holt. In true Lori Holt style this collection has a classic, fun and vintage vibe. Combining small prints, florals & text in a palette of yellows, pinks, blues, greens & browns, this fabric collection would be a great choice for a little girls bedroom decor project.
Mix and match these gorgeous fabric ranges with our newly stocked Sue Daley Lace Zippers & Riley Blake "Sew Together" Gingham Buttons to make a truly cute and unique project.
Happy Sewing :)

Savour Each Stitch: Studio Quilting with Mindful Design

Caroline Friedlander is a popular pattern + fabric designer from Florida, USA. With a background in architecture, Caroline has made her mark in the quilting, craft + textile world with a modern + refreshing approach to pattern + colour. Known for her modern, organic aesthetic + love of hand appliqué, her quilts are instantly recognisable by her use of pattern, colour + texture.
Savour Each Stitch is "an exploration of how eight different projects can be completely reinterpreted by incorporating the design principles of line, contrast, colour, scale, emphasis, texture + volume."
This is a particularly inspirational book for those quilt makers keen to take the design process into their own hands; tips + workshops are included throughout on developing the design principles to suit your own unique style.
This is a far cry from your typical quilt pattern book - hand appliqué features heavily with an emphasis on the "slow sewing" philosophy + enjoying the process of hand making.
You can purchase a copy of Savour Each Stitch from our online store or our Noosa Heads store.
Happy Sewing!

Sophie's Cardigan
I
am really excited to share my first crochet finish for 2016! This is a beginner crochet pattern by one of
my favorite pattern designers Mon Petit Violon.
It works up quickly, has the option of short or long sleeves & best
of all – there’s no seams!
I
chose to use Cascade Yarns Ultra Pima cotton in Buff and I think it shows off
the stitch detail beautifully – it’s also a perfect weight for the cooler Winter
months (or not so cool Winter months) on the Sunshine Coast.
