Flashback to my most favourite custom order - "Banksia".

Banksia was made as a new baby gift, from a Supurla by Norwellan vintage woollen blanket, and lined with the delightfully sweet possum cotton lining. We finished her with customised hand embroidery, and my heart was truly singing.

A new creation completed, which means it's time for a bit of cleaning and maintenance before I start on my next project.

Truth be told, woollen blankets drop so many tiny fibres, it accumulates really quickly and is essential to ensuring my machine works smoothly!

It is my absolute delight to introduce "Banksia".

I've had a hard time keeping this incredibly special coat under wraps!

Made from a recently aquired Supurla by Norwellan vintage woollen blanket, and lined with the delightfully sweet possum cotton lining, Banksia is finished with customised hand embroidery.

My heart was full of excitement wrapping her up ready for delivery! 😍

Meet "Veira".

Now on her way to her new home, Veira is a Reversible Pixie Pea Coat with a sweet pixie hood, made from a loved vintage Pompadour by Invicta 100% woollen blanket, and lined with the sweetest new floral cotton. Two sets of repurposed buttons, and two patch pockets for collecting treasures add the final touches.

This one has made my heart so happy watching her come up together.

It's been a week, and my sewing machine has sat, packed up, and deserted on my craft table. I'm so glad to be back at it tonight.

I'm not sure I'll ever get tired of these colours...
