Rainy days mean new sewing projects.

This fabric reminds me of the beautiful Carnaby Cockatoos that live in my area.

Floppy garden hats will soon be added to my product list, hit me up for a custom order!

Time for a RESTOCK!

I've finally added new Red Tractor Designs Homing Instincts, Mixed Cows and Sheep products to the website.

These fabrics are buttery soft and the prints look even better in person.

Motivation has been slow to return after the busy festive season, but today felt like the day to get back into it.

I'm playing around with some new displays and focussing on stocking my favourite styles.

There's something about this fabric from .

It lends itself so beautifully to every peice I make.

This design is called 'Homing Instincts' and over the next few weeks I'll be busy making it into pot holders, oven mitts and whatever else I come up with.

For me, the last few weeks has been all about getting off social media, enjoying time with family and only sewing for enjoyment. 🎄
