Moroccan Magic
I found this striking fabric at Mokum recently - it's designed by Cathy Brown and Tandarra Rothman. It reminded me of the patterns I designed for our Modern Spice story in Issue 3. All of the papers we used in this story are free to download from our website - endless possibilities for an ethnically-inspired event.

Simply Stripes
After a much-anticipated visit to a fabric supplier to search out new designs for an upcoming shoot, I stumbled across the Otilly and Lewis sample book. I had forgotten what a wonderful range they have - striped cottons in the most delectable shades. It's all about colour this summer, so these fabrics are just the ticket.



How wonderful these would look–one fabric as a table runner, the other made into cushions, mixed and matched in all of the different designs–it certainly would be colourful!

Wonderful West
Western Australian textile designer, of paper and thread, has some lovely designs on the Made It site. This one would look lovely for a summer wedding theme coupled with lots of fresh proteas and native foliage.

Super Good
Look at this maxi-kit I found on Etsy from Evalicious... it comes with everything you need to create a cute little album - perfect for memory keeping. Definitely worth the US$26 + postage to have everything you need in one place at the same time. The kit comes complete with everything you see plus a pdf tutorial to direct you through the construction.







There's a pink version too, so sweet...

Lovely Liberty
Ever since I can remember I have adored these heavenly fabrics. It wasn't until I travelled to London and visited the Liberty store I truly appreciated its history. Established by Arthur Liberty in 1875, the first incarnation of the shop stocked decorative pieces, fabrics and objets d'art. It has since grown to accommodate furniture, fashion and beauty products. I can't help but adore Liberty fabrics and can think of a trillion ways to use them. Maybe it's my longing for spring, but these are a few of my favourites today...

Many of the fabrics can be purchased in Australia (google for suppliers) but they do ship internationally (except for furniture) if something else from their exquisite range of products catches your eye. I do hope they inspire you too.
