I just wanted to let you all know that Little Diva Designs is now totally finished, and I say that with a little sniffle! I had an amazing and really enjoyable time creating and sewing for my wonderful customers and I met so many amazing people, especially through different markets. I am now concentrating on my new business, Kawaii for You, which is predominantly gorgeous Japanese wares -

The time has come to really say goodbye to Little Diva Designs. I've sold off all of my stock and now it's time to offload lots of gorgeous fabrics (of course I can't part with it all so I have to keep a yard or two of each!!). All fabrics are quilting-weight fabrics that are fantastic to sew with and really hold their shape and colours well. Some of the designer fabrics available are: Amy

A couple of weeks ago my baby turned three (I guess I can't call him a baby anymore can I??) and we had a little family birthday party for him. I decided a while ago that the kids could have a birthday party with their friends every second year and just a family one for the years in between.  I did invite one friend for Harry though as he has no cousins around his age to play with and also,

Further to my post the other day, I've made a couple of softies from the gorgeous Saffron Craig fabric.Here's the Koala:the Owl:and both from the back:Did you notice these two little cuties at the foot of each bigger softie?Aren't they just gorgeous?? I don't think I'll be making too many of them as they're only 6cm tall... rather fiddly to sew and turn right side out as you could imagine!!I

I need some creative help here people !! I had my new rings displayed on my market stall yesterday and thought they looked pretty cool sitting in their bowls of rice - lots of comments too but I do admit that it's not my own original idea. Anyway, the only problem with the bowls is you can't actually see what's in them unless you are standing right there:As the rings aren't just for little

It's just of my new logo but I love it.I've already started stamping my little envelopes:to put my new rings into when I sell lots of them *wink* at the markets...Next you'll probably see a photo of my kids with stamps all over them.... just kidding, I'm not quite that crazy !!P.S.

I was soooo disappointed when I found out a while ago that this gorgeous Citrus Fabric was discontinued.I'd been searching everywhere for it and had given up, but recently one of my stockists, Mini Boutique, called to ask for some more dresses in that fabric. So I had another look on the internet and was amazed to find some... YAY!!I just love the pattern and colours and think it is just

Edan Rose is a new label started by a Mum in Adelaide who has created these gorgeous "Womb with a View" Baby Cocoons."Keep baby feeling warm, snuggled and secure, much like they were in the womb! Is great for use in the day and also for sleeping. I recommend using a light wrap under the cocoon for sleeping so that little fingers and toes don't escape through the knit (although this is very cute!)

I just realised that I have done 99 posts! WOW, when I first started my blog (in September 2008) I thought there was no way I'd ever have enough interesting things to write about.

By the way, I've just sent out my July edition so if you'd like to
