TRENDS at MARKET
Our Commonwealth sisters in Australia stole the show, at least in my eyes!
Melanie designer of
Melly and Me
launched
her new baby and
mum line “Sew Little” at Fall market.
I scooped some and I have more patterns on the way
before the spring sewing show.
Don’t Look Now had us all looking .
Kelli’s amazing colour and design
caught the eye of all the
dynamic designers.
Her booth was fresh, vibrant, joyful and spaciousness .
It pulled us all in.
So fresh ,
Patterns of Meg’s Garden,
and Big Top came home with me .
While we wait for more , here is a free Finger Poke pattern to try
You met Sue Daley, author and designer
in my last blog
Her amazing quilt patterns like Pies and Tarts( 1600 pieces)
Antique Sampler, needle turn applique and English paper piecing,
and the 6 piece French Connection bedroom set,
along with A Star Is Born pin cushion,
and Sewing Assistants patterns were delivered
by Sue’s lovely daughter Shannon, who lives in Victoria.
I just found out that Sue also runs a B&B –
talk about an amazing retreat!
Designer, author and shop owner , blogger is now focusing full time on designing.
I loved everything in her booth, but brought home
her buttons
drawn by her .
Let me know what you would like me to bring in next !
