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
