Gearing up for some new kids clothes!!

Pattern Party! So I bought some more kids patterns....online shopping is so much fun.
The thing is, you gotta stick all those pages together and cut out the pattern, then sort your sizes and then trace and cut out the different sizes you need.

Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting project! In the meantime, what kind of clothes are you most excited to see for your little ones? Leave a comment below and let's chat about all things handmade kids' fashion!

Material Monday ~ Kurrkara Jukurrpa (Desert Oak Dreaming) - Mina Mina
by Maisie Nungarrayi Ward

This painting tells the story of the 'kurrkara' tree (Desert Oak [Allocasuarina decaisneana]) commonly found in many parts of the central desert of Australia. The 'kurrkara' tree is the shade tree where the women in this painting sat down to rest at Mina Mina, which is an important ceremonial place belonging to Japanangka/Japangardi men and Napanangka/Napangardi women. Mina Mina and the associated land are to the west of Yuendumu in the sandhill country. Napanangka and Napangardi women are shown here collecting 'jintiparnta' (edible fungus [Elderia arenivaga]) at Kanta Karlangu, an area that is also called Mina Mina. Ancestral women travelled from here to the north through Janyinki and other places then to the east to Alcoota country. There are a number of 'mulju' (water soakages) and a clay pan at Mina Mina and it is here that the women danced and performed various ceremonies. As a result 'karlangu' (digging sticks) rose up out of the ground and it is these implements that the women carried with them on their long journey east. The women danced and sang the whole way, with no sleep. The women collected other types of bush tucker as 'yakajirri' (desert raisin [Solanum centrale]).

Material Monday~ Desert Tracks

IJAKA is an Aboriginal word meaning "kangaroo”. Jijaka’s colourful, contemporary art tells the stories of desert and coastal tribes who have lived on the Australian continent for more than 40,000 years. Their corroboree ceremonies trace the ancient Dreamtime journeys of spirit ancestors, as they travel the vast Australian landscape.

Which do you prefer...Trendy or Classic? Or a mix of both?

When it comes to dressing our little ones, the debate between trendy and classic styles often arises. Each has its own appeal, catering to different tastes and preferences.

Trendy kids' clothes are all about keeping up with the latest fashion statements. From bold patterns to quirky designs, these outfits are sure to make a statement on the playground. Trendy pieces often reflect current pop culture trends and can help kids express their individuality in fun and creative ways. However, trends come and go quickly, trendy pieces might mean they'll be out of style before your child outgrows them.

On the other hand, classic kids' clothes never go out of style. Timeless pieces like linen shirts, khaki pants and a traditional pinafore exude a sense of sophistication and elegance. These wardrobe staples are versatile and can be easily mixed and matched for various occasions. Classic styles prioritize longevity and durability, making them a practical choice for parents who want their children's clothing to withstand the test of time.

Whether you opt for trendy or classic kids' clothes depends on your personal preferences, your child's style, and the occasion. Mixing both styles can also create a well-rounded wardrobe that balances fun and timeless elements. After all, fashion is all about expressing oneself, and kids should feel comfortable and confident in whatever they wear, whether it's the latest trend or a timeless classic.

Material Monday ~ Firewater Dreaming
Artist: Maureen Hudson Nampajimpa

Ngapa, meaning rain or water, and Waru, meaning fire, are represented in this work. The Warlukurlangu fire dreaming country begins west of Yuendumu, and extends south for hundreds of kilometres. This country was formed when the blue-tongue lizard man sent flames to punish his sons who had broken the law. Adjoining Warlukurlongu is Pirlinyanu, a rain dreaming site created by mythical rain-makers. The fire is depicted at the centre, and the running waters at top and bottom. The short parallel strokes are lightning flashes.

Material Monday~
Fire Country Dreaming.
Artist: Lynette Nampijinpa Granites

An old man, 'lungkarda', of the Jampijinpa skin group, lived on a hill with his two Jangala sons. The old man would claim blindness and send his two boys out to hunt, while gone the old man would go and hunt and eat everything he found. One day his two sons hunted a Kangaroo after extensive tracking. Upon return they were told this Kangaroo was sacred to the 'lungkarda', this angered the old man terribly. The next time the boys went out the old man put his fire sticks to the ground, unleashing a relentless bush fire that chased them across the lands. Exhausted, the boys managed to outrun the flames, only to be consumed by the fire when it reappeared out of the blue-tongued lizard hole.

A little behind the scenes
Embracing the Fabric Stash!

There are some that have no understanding of the necessity to accumulate what those that sew, loving call their Fabric Stash!!

The quick trip to Spotlight to grab some buttons and cotton can sometimes, well.... quite often, turn into at least an hour maybe two and result in metres of material being bought, with no notion as to what said material is actually going to be made into.
It's near impossible to imagine walking out of the store and not having a little bundle of joy to take home.😍
The Fabric Stash is also known as an obsession/hoarding by family and friends😂
