camera work

Not really "work", more like complete enjoyment trying to capture new things with the lense ...

Can you see me in the spoon? Have a wonderful Friday!

matchy matchy

My little project this week was to make a small cushion to go with the bed runner I made a few weeks ago for my friend. I was really happy with how it turned out, and I love the rectangle shape. I think it will look good with the bedrunner ...


There are still some sale-priced pre-cut fat quarters of this Agapanthus fabric (and others) available in the shop.
More creative spaces over here. Have a great Thursday!






P.S. The Yardage Design online shop will be closed from this weekend until sometime in July. It's time for a break. I'll still be blogging a bit here and you might find me on facebook too. I'm looking forward to designing and releasing some fresh, new, lovely things soon.

hot off the needles ...

My knitting continues at a very enjoyable snail's pace, but I wanted to show you the clever knitting of my friend Jaimie (modelled by her cute kids). Jaimie and I used to work together ... back in the day!

Jaimie knitted these lovely Milo vests for me for my nieces - they have beautiful little cable owls with wooden button eyes. They were a real hit with my nieces!


Jaimie has started a little business knitting for people using beautiful Bendigo Wool and WOOLganic wool. It's called Hot Off the Needles: Knits for kids and bubs. Have a look at all of the beautiful things Jaimie knits - she is one clever (and quick) knitter!

SALE ends tonight 9pm



Thanks so much to everyone who has visited and purchased things from my shop during this sale. I am busily packing up orders ready to be posted tomorrow. I just wanted to let you know that there are still lots of bargains (especially pre-cut fat quarters of fabric) to be found.

I also wanted to let you know that many of my homewares products will not be available again after this sale. I want to release a new range later this year. The shop will be closed from this weekend for a month or two, so now's your chance to stock up!

Thanks again,
