September’s Swatches

Twilight Pond Tealight Paper Damask Ivory Blooms Daylight Pond

Sue gets back home this week from the USA and she’s bringing with her our fabric finds, notions, ribbons, buttons, and what nots! I simply can’t wait! She’s been busy tweeting pictures of her fabric-finding adventure from our Twitter feed so some of you early birds have had a peek into the fabric selections we’re mulling on but here’s a taste of what we will definitely be putting up in the fabric collection soon. These ones have a floral and shabby chic theme and come from the same colourway so they can be mixed together in a multi-fabric bag.

Birdie Bag is ready for Twestival 2010!

The Birdie Bag for the KK Twestival 2010 has landed!

It’s not often that we get to tell the story of a bag but with the custom-designed Birdie Bag, there’s the tree, a chirpy bird in the spirit of Twitter, and the earth in a cool concoction of cotton, corduroy and natural canvas in a vibrant mesh of colours. ( I think there’s enough Cs in there! :)) A ONE-OFF bag specially made for this event, it’s a bag that tells the story of our relationship with the earth and the immediate world around us, and reminds us of what we can do, no matter how small a gesture,  to help it.

The Blue Orient

My sister gave me a light blue Japanese cotton print a while back and it was simply gorgeous! It took me a while to make something because I wanted to find another Japanese print to complement it. Hence the start of a fervent search for it. I think I managed one just about right for it.

The handle is actually dark blue and not black as in this picture

I’m gonna call this the Blue Orient. I can’t wait to share the finished product with you guys. Watch this space!
