This wintery snap has got my mind in high ‘cosy, This wintery snap has got my mind in high ‘cosy, warm, wardrobe planning’ mode. We just got in this amazing Velvet Finish 100% wool and it’s ticking all the boxes for me: ☑️ all natural fibre ☑️ ridiculously soft ☑️ thick and cosy without being too heavy ☑️ amazing colour I think it would be fabulous as an Assembly Line Lab Coat #tallabcoat but I’m also quite fond of a hood so I’m still pondering options (like the #mmtn31parka or the #clarecoat) - and that’s really all part of the fun, right? 😃 Ps. We have this gorgeous wool in black and dark navy too! It’s on our homepage, link in profile 👍🏻
Perfect day to be home, playing with super soft ya Perfect day to be home, playing with super soft yarn ❤️ I’m onto the third section of my DK (8ply) weight #verticesuniteshawl, using our Fibresmith hand Dyed DK Merino in (a slightly darker batch of) Raw Jade. Truly enjoying this knit just as much as I did the first time around!
This blustery Autumn day is the perfect backdrop t This blustery Autumn day is the perfect backdrop to share our new delicious boiled wool coatings, in a couple of classics and a couple of fun colours 😃 These are super thick but not TOO heavy and beautifully springy, with edges that won’t fray making them perfect for exposed seams. Wonderful for coats and jackets, of course, but also for snuggly homewares like throws or cushions.
Jennifer brought in her gorgeous, recently finishe Jennifer brought in her gorgeous, recently finished shawl last week, knit using our Fibresmith Hand Dyed 4ply Merino in Blackberry Sorbet, Maple and Blackest Grape 🙌🏻 The pattern is the Indigo Sea Shawl which was printed in Making Vol 3 Dots, now out of print but the pattern is happily still available on Ravelry.com. This shawl is so squishyly soft and is going to be such a perfectly gorgeous colour highlight for so many outfits through Autumn and Winter ❤️

What a beauty of a day in the middle of Easter wee What a beauty of a day in the middle of Easter weekend!! We are OPEN from 10am til 4pm today to help you find holiday project supplies and wrap up pretty little orders like this one (including another delightful black and white Japanese fabric that didn’t fit into my last photo 😁) Probably not a great day weather-wise to mention the STUNNING boiled and velvet finish 100% wool coating we just got in but if you’ve got winter coat making in mind, check them out instore today! I’ll pop them online next week 👍🏻 #melbournesewing #melbournefabric
So many beautiful black and natural cotton/linen f So many beautiful black and natural cotton/linen fabrics arrived in our latest delivery from Japan!! I was thrilled to order these as they’re always super popular. The Cuff Top sample that we have in a similar fabric (second pic) caused it to sell out within hours and we always get asked if we have anything similar - now we have plenty of options 😃 Tap the pics for product details and you can find them all on our homepage in the Recently Added area!
We’ll be closed on Friday this week but open Sat We’ll be closed on Friday this week but open Saturday from 10am til 4pm to welcome local friends and visitors from out of town! Perfect day to stock up on project supplies to get you through school holidays if you’ve got kids at home too 😁

New arrivals include the latest pattern, the super versatile Multi Sleeve Midi Dress, in two size ranges, plus the Lab Coat and Puff Shirt in the XL-3XL range 😃 #talmultisleevemididress #talmultimididress #talpuffshirt #tallabcoat
Adding more and more Japanese fabrics to the shop Adding more and more Japanese fabrics to the shop by the day but had to give a special mention to this luscious 100% cotton waffle weave we received from France!! Super soft, lush and Oekotek Certified, this is the spa robe waffle of your dreams ☁️
Our most beautiful, jet black Japanese seersucker Our most beautiful, jet black Japanese seersucker is finally back in stock - and it brought an ivory friend!! We’ve been waiting (not so) patiently for this one to come back and made sure to order LOTS so we don’t sell out as quickly as last time 😃 Polly (@nuno_studio) has made the most gorgeous dress with this one, it’s the third photo in her feed currently and, besides looking fabulous on her, really shows off the features of this cotton perfectly! I’m thinking I might need a black seersucker #remytop or a #mmflorencetop ... of course another #wikstenshifttop could never be a bad idea either... 🤔
We’ve had a bounty of delicious Japanese fabrics We’ve had a bounty of delicious Japanese fabrics arrive and it has been such a joy to open all the boxes and exclaim over the goodies inside! I’m working hard to get them all online this week and will share highlights as they’re available - of course, they’re all shining bright in our Yarraville shop so if you’re a Melbourne local, pop in and see them all in one hit. We’re open Tuesday through to Saturday, 10am til 4pm 🙌🏻 This midweight canvas from Kokka features the most stunning colour palettes printed on an unbleached cotton/linen base cloth. Perfect for cushion covers and tote bags as well as structures dressmaking like jackets, pants or fitted skirts. #japanesefabric
Thanks to this week’s deliveries, we’re all st Thanks to this week’s deliveries, we’re all stocked up on scrumptious Ochre yarn and the essential Soak Wash! To celebrate, we’ve decide to do a fun little bonus - you’ll get a Soak Wash sample with every Ochre yarn purchase! And if you purchase more than 5 skeins of Ochre yarn, you’ll also receive an extra bonus screen printed Ochre cotton tote bag ❤️ One sample (and tote for over 5 skeins) per online order or instore purchase, while supplies last!
Super pleased with how my Celestial Dress turned o Super pleased with how my Celestial Dress turned out! This great pattern by @patternfantastique was a very easy and enjoyable sew, I knocked it out in a few hours (I did omit the pockets to speed things up but they wouldn’t have added more than an hour, I reckon). This is a size 12 in the midi length, the sizing is spot on as our mannequin is an Aus 12 (as am I 😁). The Classic Linen is a great weight for this dress, giving just a bit of structure to the sleeve, without too much weight. We just received a restock of our most popular colours, including the Evening Blue shown here. I found the perfect necklace and scarf to add a bit of colour and I’ve now got a fabulous outfit for the wedding plus a gorgeous linen dress I can wear to work 🙌🏻 #celestialdress #handmadewardrobe #memade #memadewardrobe #melbournemade #melbournesewing
More delightfully sweary labels from the unstoppab More delightfully sweary labels from the unstoppable @kylieandthemachine team!! And the gorgeous mini rainbow hands that went like a flash last time 😁 We have over 25 fabulous label designs in stock, find them all under Good Stuff<Woven Labels in our online shop!
I spent some time flicking through our Japanese pa I spent some time flicking through our Japanese pattern books today, on the hunt for a project to make with the beautiful Bramble Hemp Organic Cotton from Merchant & Mills (see last post). I found so many perfect projects for this cloth that I had to share just a few. If you tap on each image, it should tell you what book the pattern is from and give a link to it in our shop if you want to see more. I’m extra loving the sleeve detail on this first top so that’s what I’m going to try (I’ve linked two books to this one as both have basically the same top with different necklines). Looking forward to seeing how it comes together!
Another stunning new Merchant & Mills collection j Another stunning new Merchant & Mills collection just arrived is this range of hemp/organic cotton in the most wonderful colours 🥰 This is a beautifully versatile cloth that works for so many of the Merchant & Mills patterns, it feels like a classic cotton but the hemp content gives some added texture and strength. Perfect for tops and dresses with a bit of structure (like shirt dresses) or light, comfy pants and skirts. I have my eye on the Bramble (deep, dusty purple) colourway and am scouting top patterns this afternoon, will report back tonight with options! #sustainablesewing #sustainablefabrics #sustainablefabric
