in the post today

Here's a little snippet of some of the loveliness that the delivery man brought us today. We all get so excited when we hear the gate squeak, and someone is knocking at our door.
Fabric fat 1/4s and meterage from the Inkies*.
And some Pippijo meterage. I love the texture of her fabric. I do believe those water hens are my most favourite of all designs ever. Sweet water hen memories from my mum, who called them Pukeko from her time living in NZ.
I also made some babushka's from Kristen Dorans fabric panels. The kids and I had a lot of fun with these sweet little ones.

Ink & Spindle

Ink & Spindle is a boutique screen-printing studio based in the beautiful-looking Younghusband Wool Store building in Melbourne. Run by three young textile designers – Lara Cameron, Bianca Van Meeuwen and Tegan Rose - who share a love of art and design. They specialise in high quality textile printing for designers and independent labels. The trio were brought together by a common passion for screen printed textiles and sustainable alternatives to the mass produced textiles that dominate the marketplace.

They each have a distinct voice in the design industry; yet the three design styles mix effortlessly. Their printing studio showcases their varied talents in textile design, as well as their dedication to minimise the environmental impact of the textile industry.

We love their bold vibrant colours, and striking confident designs. Check out the Ink & Spindle blog, where they share news, travel adventures and always look fabulous!
