Beautiful NEW Makers Journal Sewing Patterns

The latest two new sewing patterns by the talented duo at The Makers Journal. The Minnie Mini shown above and below is a 'cheeky' mini skirt made up in the beautiful Rock Garden Stone Flowers by Umbrella Prints. A simple pull-on style mini skirt with overlapping side splits which go all the way up to the waist. Let the fabric and style 'sing' by pairing with a plain summery top!

The Weekend Tote is definately an essential bag to be added to your tote collection! The frayed handles are a beautiful feature and it is a fabulous size that looks great slung over your shoulder or carried by hand.

We are very excited to introduce this fabulous Australian Designer pattern brand to our store! Please pop in store for a look at these plus a range of beautiful underwear sewing patterns. We are expecting two new additions to this range later this week so stay tuned...

Fun Xmas Ideas with Jersey!

Nani IRO 2011 Anniversary Fabric Collection

This beautiful quilt was made by Jade in two of the new Nani IRO double gauze fabrics, Japanese Fuccra Blush and Colorful POCHO Pink Shimmer Double Gauze. Both of these fabrics are from the Nani IRO 2011 Anniversary Collection which celebrates the 10th Anniversary of Naomi Ito's exquisite japanese designs. I love how Jade has used the lighter Japanese Fuccra double gauze for the exterior of her quilt and the inside the thicker 'new' medium weight Pocho double gauze for added warmth. These two fabrics also team up beautifully for a quilt! Stop by Jade's lovely blog thejadeleaf for some wonderful inspiration!

Over the weekend we have uploaded the majority of the Nani IRO 2011 Collection but are still anxiously awaiting just a couple more pieces. It always seems like such a long wait for Nani IRO fabrics but we are never disappointed when they arrive on the doorstep and we all enjoy touching and grabbing a little for our own sewing projects. I have plans for a dress and a skirt with a couple of beautiful designs from this collection. This new range is a rather large one and includes some of the softest knits you have ever felt as well as stunning designs on double gauze and lovely linen blends. There is even a couple of beautiful textured cottons here and here.

I will finish this post with a couple of our favourite designs in this collection, which I assure you was a hard task to pick!

Colorful POCHO Knit Dusty Pink

Fuccra Rakuen Rose on Caramel Double Gauze

Fuccra Rakuen Ink Blue Linen Blend

Fuwari Fuwari Soft Jade Double Gauze

Japanese Fuccra Deep Green Double Gauze

SAAAA SAAA Stripe Grey Double Gauze

Painting MUJI Deep Sea Linen Blend

 This is such a wonderful collection that we do plan to take a few of these designs to the Melbourne Craft & Quilt Fair which begins on the 27th July but they will be available all this week in our store and of course we will bring back what we do not sell at the show.

We hope you enjoy sewing with Nani IRO fabrics as much as we do and dare to share your creations with us!

Tara Davy Textiles

Partridge Chilli Hand Screen Printed on 100% Linen

This week we introduced a brand new Australian Designer range of textile designs to our store - Tara Davy Textiles!

Tara and I have had an online friendship for a number of years now and throughout this time have often discussed her designing a range of hand screen printed fabrics exclusively for Kelani. We have been working on this project for a number of months and it has been great fun being involved in choosing colourways, basecloths to print on and the most difficult part..deciding on which of Tara's gorgeous designs to run with first. Tara's background is one of design, design and yes, more design! Tara has spent years designing and illustrating in the magazine industry and in her words is "thrilled to apply her work to a new surface".

Tara's designs have a lovely touch of whimsy and a dose of bright retro and are printed with water based inks on a range of 100% linen, 100% cotton and Australian Made 100% Organic Jersey. We have a little bit of wonderful inspiration to share with you below, illustrating Tara Davy Textiles made into cushions, lamps, bedding, wall art and of course clothing but we are really looking forward most to see what some of our customers make with this range.


Hot Air in Blush and Lagoon Hand Screen Printed on 100% Cotton

'Hot Air' hand screen printed on 100% cotton makes lovely quilts and bedding, curtains and blinds, cushions and lampshades as well as children's clothing (refer below clothes line image).

'Hot Air Blush'

Hot Air Cherry on Frosting Organic Jersey

The 100% organic australian jersey is incredibly soft and will make lovely cozy jackets like the make it perfect uptown girl jacket above or pj's, dresses and tops below. Other ideas for the organic jersey is tees, onesies, bibs, baby wraps as well as bedding. The 'Partridge' design is also available in jersey in two beautiful colourways, chilli and chai latte.

Partridge Chai Latte 100% Linen

'Partridge' on wide width 100% linen is extremely versatile for both soft furnishings and apparel.
