If I thought I had been on an insightful journey a month ago, that was nothing to the one I am now on. The biggest surprise to me following separating from my partner was ‘falling into’ some amazing books and learning how to become more soul conscious, how to separate the ego/personality from soul, becoming … More One month on…
Continuing with the latest theme of quilting, embellishing and decorative stitches, I made this awesome bag for myself today! I’m totally inlove, of course :) Typical of my style, I made it up as I went along. Had I thought ahead, I would have made the closure flap an inch narrower, so that it fit … More New bag for ME :)
I had such a wonderful day! To begin, my horoscope via Gaz Lowe said: “Aquarius: It feels to me that the destination is changing dear Aquarius and this is exactly what you need. Today you will come across a wake up call that will drive you into a whole new direction. It’s really time for … More destination is changing dear Aquarius
I am back from a blessed 5 days staying at my friend’s place in Clunes, NSW. It’s in the gorgeous rolling green hills up behind Byron Bay. A newfound paradise for me. It was so incredible to take a break without being burnt-out. I was in holiday mode from the very beginning, and … More Byron Hinterland getaway
I’ve always used a notebook to track custom orders. Once the order is confirmed in email, I transfer the details to a book and work from that. It’s a good enough system until I need measurements, so then I have to go back to the order book to check, and I then write the measurements … More Being more organised

arrived from the amazing Shari from Soren Lorensen Design. Pure JOY, sifting through the riot of colours and oh-so-soft cottons in the box. Inspiration overload! It’s really a very exciting thing to receive fabric that I wouldn’t necessarily buy myself, but suddenly when it’s all in front of you, the ideas come pouring in. After … More A box of scraps
that I have ever received for one of my products. This is from the beautiful Michelle (Bohemianism – the divine jewellery I keep raving about!) ♥ I was moved to tears by what she said!! “There is nothing to be underestimated about the glorious feeling of acquiring an original design that you know nobody else … More The most beautiful and eloquent words…
1. I love, love, love this time of year. I am so thankful to say goodbye to the clouds (much as I find them beautiful) and humidity for 5 months or so!!! I love to be able to do physical things without having to constantly back up with a shower or swim. I love not … More 5 things….
Hanging freshly washed, new fabric on the line to dry in the shade. What made you happy today?
Lily and I decided to go for an impromptu walk on the beach this morning – only the tide was so high it would have been a very short walk. So we climbed around the beautiful powdery rocks instead, with the water lapping up against them. I love the plinky plonk sounds. I realised, as … More rock hopping
