I came all the way to Melbourne to go to this amazing crafters market today! It didn't disappoint - neither did the rest of our Melbourne adventures. Such a fabulous city!

My gorgeous niece, Marni, in one of my hats...

Behind the scenes of every market is a very messy sewing table! is over but my mess is still there...leave it for another day. So lovely to catch up with some regulars and meet new customers. I was so stoked with the two ladies who came back again today to buy more hats! Nga mihi!

Had a great day yesterday Back again today 10-4. Pioneer Stadium.

Market is on at Pioneer stadium. 10-4 pm today and tomorrow

Bucket hats made from Upcycled table and dresser cloths, handmade plant dyed fabrics from , denim and cotton deadstock fabrics from . We will be Sat & Sunday 10-4.

Ignore the black Friday sales spamming your Instagram. Shop local instead, in person, next weekend. Early Xmas shopping. Over 100 stalls and great coffee.

So excited to post this. of has generously given me some of her beautiful off-cuts to make bucket hats from for . Such glorious colours and I've had such fun piecing them together. I don't want to waste anything! We will both have reversible hats - upcycled on one side and plant-dyed on the other. Here's one example.

Sewing room chaos! Only a few weeks out now and struggling to keep the mess under control. This is a tidy 'instagrammable' shot. What you can't see is the pile of material ready for cutting, scraps ready for upcycling..

Eek... Just a bit of sewing and labelling still to do! I'll be at Encraftment for both days selling bucket hats for kids, men and women. Made from upcycled table linens and deadstock natural fabrics.

It's the last day of the school holidays. I have the weekend after I get back from being a Yr 6 camp helper. So, I have loved being back in the sewing room again after a long hiatus. My shoulder is slowly mending and longer days are back. Happy days

I have never seen anything as little and as cute as this before. Reversible kids' hats in production. Loving making them from the prettiest material scraps
