BiECO-lossal!

reconstituted woollies ready for the BiECO
wimcee's next market is something very different - brisStyle's first ever eco market, on Saturday July 10th, at St Augustine's church hall and grounds on Racecourse Road, Ascot. Local etsians will be amazing us all with a wide range of upcycled, repurposed and vintage wares. While most of my usual stock is made from new fabrics and fibres, I have previously offered a few eco-friendly pieces, so the BiECO is a wonderful opportunity to devote extra time and energy to upcycled denims, reconstituted and embellished woollies, and all manner of wimcee-cal numbers put together from my supply of vintage fabrics, buttons, ribbons, trims and scraps. As usual, just never quite enough hours in the day and days in the week to make good all the ideas I'd like to try out, but so much fun -!

Easing into Easter






Some upcycled coats and skirts in the works, ready for the BiTM - BrisStyle indie Twilight Market - coming your way if you are local, the very first ever to take place in Brisbane's King George Square on April 30th.

And some pretty cute woolly hats taking shape if I do say so myself...almost cool enough to knit again, and the summer cold that's lingered here makes knitting such a nice option.
