Well there you go. I only read today that my favourite Textile Designer Lucienne Day has passed away.

Peeping Tom Paper

A bundle of Peeping Tom / Paper was shipped off to the Moose headquarters recently and I am thrilled to pieces to see that they arrived safely! I love online shopping and Moose delivers a wonderfully eclectic + creative mix of jewellery, textiles, art and paper (of course!) from both Australian and International artists. A good site to present hunt, the Fun is Cool selection of brooches or the Kitty cushion by Lisa Max, sealed with a Peeping Tom / Paper card could be perfect for your tweetheart (hint, hint, tweet, tweet…)

My new shoes

It’s weekend time again! I am going to spend mine breaking in new shoes + pretending/attempting? to be a textile designer. Not long ago my friend directed me to Spoonflower where you can very easily design and print your own fabric online. Up there with haircuts + going out for breakfast, textiles give me much delight + I would love to have a metre or two of my own ideas on thread.

On a whole other level, Volksfaden has the most tempting textile range I have come across online.
