Look what I made

Well it has been a long time since I have made something new to show you!

That's because not too many new creation have been coming from my sewing machine of late! I have been busy making something else!!!!!!

This little rascal has been keeping things pretty quiet around the sewing room.

Oh yes I did have some help form Mr Maca on this creation!!! Ha Ha.

Just in the last few days I have started to feel a little better, so I may attempt some new creations for the spring summer range.

Orchard Trees

I have been busy, there is lots to tell.

I hope all the Mum's out there had a lovely Mothers day! I did!
Mr Maca helped the Little Macas produce some very "LOVELY" perfume by Sarah Jessica Parker, on Sunday morning.

I have my sewing machine back from being repaired now the over locker is having a service because it too jammed and disrupted the timing. Not very happy at all. Just when I have a back log of orders to fill!!!!!!!

In early April I ordered some lovely new fabric from Elissa at Kelani fabric.

Pippijoe's wonderful Orchard Chocolate and the Red. I have made a Long Sleeved T-shirt using the Red for Little Mr Maca and the chocolate on a long black T-shirt for Little Miss Maca. The orders have started coming in already for these ones. I will be making some more to put on the Website very soon.

Sewing up a winter storm

As I said in the last post, I have been sewing sewing sewing.
This is the reason now my machine is at the Dr's for a check up (Service) it started making funny noises and then jammed several times. This all happened as I was completing some orders I have received for the floral tunic blouse that is still not listed on the web page yet. Sorry!
I was hoping to have at least a couple made up by now, Oh well soon I promise!!
If you would like to put your order in now then e-mail me because they are going quick.
No photies this time Should have some more great pics next time.

Made it shop

I have been sewing up a winter storm and also working on a Made it store to sell some more stock and also to get some more exposure for Fancy Pants 4 tots. I have listed these very super cute cord pants in size 00 & 0 take a look here. I hope to add some more things soon.

I have one of these Long sleeved tops left in a size 2. I hope to put it into the Made it Store soon.

Remember this~! well look at it now!

Remember this yummy fabric I showed you a few weeks ago!

Well look at it now!!!!!!!

This is the NEW bootleg pants with the flower detail on the front left leg, using all the fabrics. Sorry bad photos- too much flash.

And this is the floral tunic blouse that will be available on the website to purchase soon.

I just love how these two pieces have turned out and especially how well they go together. Little miss Maca has declared they are very comfortable to wear as well, by not wanting to take either of these items off!!!!!!!!!

New aprons and chocolate cake

The Little Macas and I made a Chocolate cake yesterday morning for afternoon T. They were trying out their new aprons I picked up at the Melbourne showground's market last weekend. I think the lady who makes them was Lyn. (Sorry if that is incorrect) How cute do they look, good enough to eat!

Enjoying the taste test. Who dosen't!!!!

March market pics

Market Day today!

The weather was beautiful, my clothes were looking beautiful, the people were beautiful but they were just not buying today! Oh well next month. It was nice to be out in the sunshine though.

That's my stall tucked back in the corner.

Below are the NEW winter long sleeved T's

I have called this collection the "WINTER GARDEN" collection.

Red Apples and Green Pears for the Girls. They co-ordinate beautifully with the boot leg pants or with the German village pink wide leg pants.

Blue or Red Owl's for the Boys.

Miss Macas dolly was used again to model the new boot leg pants and the new Winter Garden tunic blouse.
Luckily I was able to escape the house this morning with dolly before Miss Maca saw I was taking her, or there would have been tears.

She sat very nicely for me today beside her manikin boyfriend wearing Little Mr Macas prototype Maxi Stripe pants.

No orders were taken for them! Oh well, I hope they will be a hit on the website.

A close up of one of the Red Owls on Trees patches.

This design is one of Saffron Craig's fabric panels that I purchase form Kelani Fabric. Saffron Craig is and Australian designer who hand screen prints her fabric in Australia on 100% cotton. Pre-shrunk and colour safe.

Each owl patch is different and I am only making one in each size. Very Unique indeed!

Below is the "German village pink Wide Leg Pants" also part of the new Winter Garden Collection.
The German village pink fabric from Kelani Fabric is actually on the cuff of these pants.

I hope your having a lovely weekend.
More pics of the collection to come soon.

On the hunt for Red White and Blue

I have been on the hunt for some Red White and Blue medium weight fabric to make my Boy's winter pants. I looked high and low, even searching in Shepparton Lincraft when I was up that way visiting family, Spotlight, at the stitches and craft show, online and then I came across this....
at Tessuti in Sydney so I called the girls (Kate was very helpful over the phone, thanks heaps) to see if they could send me a sample. The Maxi Stripe Fabric is actually Red, Cream and Black but I have archived the look I was after. They will go great with my long sleeved boys tops that I'm working on at the moment. I'll show you one next post!

Don't these pants on Little Mr Maca look so funky retro.


These Maxi Stripe pants will be available soon on the web as part of the new winter collection. Or if you have spied this post and can't wait to get your hands on a pair then e-mail me or leave a post.
I will be making one of each size 00, 0, 1, 2 & 3

Stitches and craft show

It has been over a week since the stitches and craft show now, but my head is still spinning form the very short time I had there on the Friday. My mum (a life member of the C.W.A. and a keen crafter) came from Shepparton on the train to be by my side as we cruised the aisle's and went ohhh and ahh at all the lovely things.


The Kelani Fabric stand was high on my list to visit, and to see the people behind the many blogs that I have been spending way too much time reading instead of doing more sewing and working on my own website/blog. There is not enough time in the day!!!!!!! or night.

I managed to pick up some lovely fabric from Tegan Rose in person!(Antique keys in olive and chocolate& Antique keys in dusty pink and white). Meeting the girls behind Ink & Spindle was a real buzz especially because they have a new studio in Kensington which is just down the road from me. I hope to pop in some day soon to see what lovely thing they are up to.

The Birch Forest Dusty Pink and Olive by Lara Cameron I saw at Kelani and just had to have. This will compliment my stash for some very cool pants for next spring summer's range.
