New organic eco friendly fabrics!

How's that for title full of buzz words. I am so excited to announce that my latest range of fabrics is printed on eco friendly basecloth! The new fabric is a blend of 55% hemp and 45% Certified Organic cotton - whoo! Although it is made from hemp it's actually really soft and lovely - I really like it.



The other cool thing is that although these are reprints of existing designs, they're in new colourways I've never done before, and generally a lot brighter and fresher - hope you like them :)



I'm not 100% sure when I'll be able to put these up in my shop - it depends on when I can get my hands on a nice camera for the product shots. At this point I'm estimating Wednesday or Thursday this coming week :)

love the new colors. i am glad you made a change in colorways. not that i didn't enjoy the previous ones. change (when it comes to color) is good. :) gives the mind some new eye candy. :)

and the eco friendliness is awesome too!

now.. if only i had the money.. i'm still reeling in from my last few fabric purchases (yours and the other lovely aussie gals). the money adds up so quickly! and the shipping too!

anyhow, will there be any new patterns too? wink wink.

hi there, i was wondering where you get your fabric printed and if i could have the contact. I got a print Gocco thinking i would use that to stamp on cloth but that turned out to be quite a feat. Hope to hear from you!! Thanks in advance!

I love the look of your new stuff - particularly the birch trees - I had just drawn something similar in a journal project I am taking part in - to mark the edge of my page on conservation work - to be honest now seeing your fabric printed I think I must have seen your fabric and been inspired by it without knowing - I hope you don't mind!

They look beautiful! I'm trying to exercise restraint here and keep to my fabric diet (use from the stash ...) but these might cause me to fall off the wagon!

Nice to have you back!

Very envious about your eco-friendly fabric! I can't seem to find something affordable in South Africa, but congrats on making such a fab change to an already amazing product!

I love the look of your new stuff - particularly the birch trees - I had just drawn something similar in a journal project I am taking part in - to mark the edge of my page on conservation work - to be honest now seeing your fabric printed I think I must have seen your fabric and been inspired by it without knowing - I hope you don't mind!
