Kristen Doran Hummingbird


Kristen Doran is well known for her beautifully detailed hand screen printed textiles both here in Australia and overseas. Her latest unique and contemporary 'hummingbird' is stunning in design and features a gorgeous soft mustard and grey colour palette.

I am a huge fan of Kristen's versatile craft panels most commonly used for cushions, bag making, wall art, and childrens interiors but I am delighted to see her recently print on yardage, broadening its applications for larger home decorating and furnishing projects!



Available in two lovely basecloths! A cotton/linen blend which is a great all-rounder for homewares such as lampshades, cushions, drapery, and light upholstery whilst still a lovely weight for skirts and bags as well as 100% cotton, perfect for summer skirts, blouses, linen, as well as lighter home decorating projects.

Kristen's latest 'Cuckoo' craft panels are gorgeously unique and reflect another fabulous aspect of Kristen's designs being continuously appropriate for all ages! Fun for a child's decor as well as sophisticated enough for a ladies bag, or contemporary cushion in the living room!



Gorgeous deep red, chocolate and avocado green on stone.

20% off Kristen Doran Matryoshka Dolls Continues!



Just wanted to let you all know that due to the huge demand for Kristen Doran's gorgeous matryoshka doll craft panels and Kristen closing her shop this week as her son is in hospital, I have decided to continue the sale on these lovely craft panels until 5pm Friday or until stocks run out! Some of the matryoshka doll colourways are getting very low and I doubt if they will last until Friday at this great price so if you have the urge to add these to your fabric stash I would get in quick! Kristen, I hope this week is not too stressful for you and I am thinking of your son!

Staircase Creativity

Anna sent me a lovely photograph of her staircase. By simply stretching a piece of Lara Cameron's gorgeous 'Flowing Dots' in Raspberry over a canvas, Anna has added some life to this area of her home. Lara's fabric works really well with the white walls and timber balustrade and handrails and I love how the canvas was hung high on the wall. Thanks Anna!



The beauty of Lara Cameron's 'Flowing Dots' is that the pattern looks lovely in any direction used for any application.

Timeless Fabrics - Sprout Design

Simple, unique and timeless are words best used to describe the Sprout Design hand screen printed textiles. These adorable fabrics are reproductions of talented Pamela Walker's 1970's designs and are available in a new range of colourways in store now.

Cushions, curtains, lamps, cot/bed linen, wall art, clothing are some ideas for projects to name just a few!







The Sprout Design collection is hand screen printed in Australia on a soft but durable 100% cotton drill and will stand the test of time.
