A new tutu colour combination ... Fruit Salad #2

I just love coming up with new colour combinations for tutus. This one I call Fruit Salad #2 as it is a lot brighter than my #1 version. It encompasses the purple of grapes, passion fruit and blueberries, the red of strawberries and cherries, the pink of watermelon and the orange of rockmelon and ... yes oranges.

Bunting flags for Holly and Abbey ...

I made these two sets of bunting flags for Holly and Abbey, sisters that live in Queensland. They were custom orders ... Holly's flags were designed to compliment a Kaz Kids "Fly away birdie" quilt cover set ...

Set of 9 large bunting flags - double sided
Fabric: dark pink gingham, pink floral,
pink flower dot, blue and white stripe


And Holly's bunting was an adaptation of a set of flags that I had made for their friend, Annika, which was made from a beige, pink and red stripe fabric. The girls' mum chose three other fabrics to work with this particular fabric.
