Vintage Fabric

I have added to my vast stash of fabric with some fabric from other people's stash.
A lady came into the shop and asked if I would like to see her fabric and maybe I would like some. She had some great stuff, so, of course, I said yes. Another friend of my Mum's was having a garage sale and said to my Ma, send her round, so, of course, I said yes and could not resist but to buy some.
I now have a lot. That may be an understatement. Someone said to me, do you think you may be the one getting rid of your fabric one day? I said, maybe, when I am an old lady.

ShipShap Retrospective

I have gone through all my photos to sort them and get organised. I wonder how much time I would save if I was organised and did not have to get organised every so often! So here are some of my favourite pieces and pics. To say good-bye to ShipShap and hello to consolidating everything under the one label of 5trillion.

Mexican Day of the Dead - Folk Art Cushions and Pillows - Frida Khalo

Found this gorgeous fabric online and had to order some to make up cushions and pillows and with the little pieces some bags - or, if you will, hand bag organisers! Buy them in Yarram at the BoHo online at Madeit or Etsy. Now to update the shops...

 Horses, big hats, cacti and beautiful dresses - 50x50cm feather filled cushions.

 These are 60x40 feather filled cushions - above and below.

 Frida Khalo with her monkeys and parrots - 1 35x35cm cushion.

 An Aztec Warrior for your bed! Pillow cases.

 Skeleton puppets, for the kids! 45x45cm feather filled cushion.

 Frida faces with sugar skulls 45x45cm feather filled cushion.

hand knitted and hand spun beanies

Had a little photo shoot upstairs at the Boho over the weekend. Did not have any of my stuff ready yet, but have some beautiful hand knits by Shaz and Nicole. Here are a few pics. Also the grey coat, added into vintage.

5trillion

So, now I have decided to merge both of my stores into one, with this one being it!
5trillion is now my only store on Etsy and Madeit - ShipShap and ShipShapeClothingCo. have been given the boot. Much simpler - hooray!
If you are in Yarram - you can also find me at The Bohemian Lounge - Artisans Bazaar, above the Post Office.
