Fabric Fettish!

Well like I said it's feeling like fall already. What a stunning day, sunshine, a nice breeze and warm enough to keep the door open at night.
We are exicted here at Charlie & Me and AnnushKa Designs to be back in action and ready to get AnnushKa Designs up and running again after a year off. Not sure really if it's been a year off, more a year of focusing on getting enough sleep!
I have to say that although I LOVE to sew my passion is fabric!!!! all kinds. I could just buy fabric all day. So many beautiful fabrics out there so little time...
One of my favorite Australian designers Lara Cameron from inkandspindle.com

And UK designer Helen Rawlinson available at http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=6822204

I could keep on going forever but these are just a few favs for today.

What a day.

Well it feels like fall outside and it's a Monday so what better time to start a new blog...........

I'm not sure how this will go but I figure it is a good way to keep me moving, exploring new ideas, designs, designers and what is out there in the handmade, fair trade world and what the mass of creative mama's is up to these days.

With today's society bent on consumerism, and destine to keep on buying why not make the conscious decision to support your neighbour, small business man, and ensure that what we buy not only fills our needs but supports fair wages and encourages creativeness and quality design.
Okay enough blabber.............so today it's off to the park!
