I've been pretty crazy busy this week, preparing for the Melbourne Design Market THIS SUNDAY. Please come and say hello if you're about. I'll be manning the Bamakko stall with the lovely and talented Tim Growcott (if only he had a website! you can see some of his textiles here).
Here's a quick preview of what I've been working on for the market:
Lamps lamps and more lamps!!
Mix packs. With packaging revised YET AGAIN.
Aaaand...
Clutch purses with mix-and-match router cut plywood clasps! Yay!! So good to see these finally come to life :)
There'll also be plenty of cushions which are being sewn as we speak.
I found time to do some non-work related things too. Like:
- playing with my niece and nephew who visited for a week from the States
- building this yellow lego castle with my family using instructions I finally found on the internet (ahhh, childhood moments revisited)
- Going to Nova to watch the movie Happy Go Lucky. A much needed light hearted break.
More big exciting news to come... but that will have to wait till another day :)

I really like your clutches! They are lovely! And the lamps, and the fabric packs... Wish I could go to the market, but it's a bit far away. And we had a yellow lego castle in my famliy too!! I must see if I can find it. Thanks for the instructions-link!
Wow you have been very busy! I love the new packaging for the mix packs - very cool...
And the clutch purses look brilliant! Will you be selling any of those in your online store?
Anyway best of luck at the markets - I'm sure you'll have a very successful day!
Hurray ! I have booked the driver, farmed out the kids and will be there on Sunday.
OOhhh I was excited about the markets before - I am stoked now. I hope I can get my hands on one of those gorgeous clutches, the one with the deer and orange trees is my favourite. Let alone all the other beauties I am being tempted with. Ruging up now in anticipation.
Everything looks fabulous! You have out done yourself with those clutches, they rock!
Those clutches turned out lovely! And the lamps...definitely need to put one of those on my wishlist! Wish the market was a tad closer to NYC. :)
