Re-Vamp

Hello everyone.
Wow April already this year is certainly running along at full speed.
My baby just turned 11 and I am sure it was only last year she actually
arrived into this world. She was such a cute little bubba.
Now she is what she thinks is a young lady.
11 going on 21.

Well there are going to be some changes to Frilly's.
Starting the 1st of May,
After some expert marketing advice Frilly's is going to wind back on
all the creations.
I will still make all the things I do now, just they will have to be requested.
I will not advertise them.
I am going to concentrate on my most favourite things and the ones you love the most.

Bunting Flags
Towels/Face washer/Sets
Satin Comfort Blankey's
Baby Blankets.

I will only be taking 10 custom spots a month.

I will work on getting some ready made items happening where you can
"Add a Name here"
Once payment has cleared if will then be posted the next day.

I am going to really work on getting designs and fabric samples for my buntings and satin blankets uploaded.
So it is just a matter of  you picking A,B and C and I get to it.

I want to make things less confusing for you the customer.

Please make sure you visit Frilly's on Facebook and my OZ Handmade Store.

Happy Australia Day

Can I just say I am so proud to be an Aussie.

We are not even into February and we have already had one disaster after another here in Australia. 

Floods in Queensland, NSW and Victoria.

Fires in Perth.

On the 10th January I finally got to have surgery that I have wanted to the past 10 years and after it had been cancelled on December 13th. I got to have a 5 day stay in hospital and am at home now recovering. I am not aloud to drive for 4 weeks and no house work for 6 weeks. I am enjoying being treated as a queen in my own home :) But this no driving thing takes some organising.

Then today my husband who works in W.A got to experience his first ever Cat2 Cyclone Bianca.  I was a little scared and although he wasn't saying so I think he was too.

I knew he would be okay but I still worried.

Then to top things on Monday 17th January 2011, a very dear friend passed away very suddenly and very unexpected.

Kylie was an amazing lady who made the most amazing cakes and called a spade a spade but was a huge part of a circle of amazing ladies.  

There is a huge gap in our lives from her passing.

On Monday 24th January at 1.30pm we said our goodbyes to our dear friend and then released purple balloons in her honour.

On the front of Frilly's Designs well not a lot has really happened since Christmas.

But today I got in my sewing room for a little while and cleaned up a little and sorted out some fabric I had purchased. 

Ready to get back into it tomorrow.

I think I finally have a cutting table.

There are going to be some big changes at Frilly's Designs this year.

I plan to release 3 new things to Frilly's Range.

Clothing being one of them.

But just what will be the surprise.

Leave a comment of just what you would like to see.

In February there will be a big surprise so stay tuned.

Anyway that's it for now.

I hope your Australia Day was great.

The weather here was not that fantastic, misty rain for most of it and quite cool.

But we did catch up with Friends for a BBQ of snags in bread for tea.

I will leave you with something that a friend posted on their FB page that I just had to borrow and share.

You know your Australian when..you can decifer "yeah nah" , your mates are shazza and dazza, goin down to see acca dacca and get maccas in ya trackies. You once lived in whoop whooop, your mates XF falcon died in the arse and you understand no wuckin furries is a good thing! Have a great Astraya Day everyone, repost if ya wanna mate....

 

Happy New Year

Welcome to Frilly's Blog.

A new year and a new Blog.

I have tried a personal blog a few times but I am hoping with this blog I will be a lot more reliable. 

For the new year I have released a new part to my collection "Prints for Loved Ones" I unveiled last Sunday night on facebook and I have received so much positive reaction to it.

Frilly's FB Page

In the last month or so I have been very lucky to be introduced to a small group of woman that are mostly made up of WAHM's.  But wow what an amazing bunch of woman they are, the support and encouragement is just WOW! The knowledge of everyone of these woman in this small group is just out of this world.

"Prints for Loved Ones"
Is something I have been working on for sometime, with the help of my friend Mandi and her 4 delightful children.
The thought for this came about.  When I was sorting through our kids things from over the years, that they have made or given us as gifts.  When I noticed the hand prints from our youngest daughter on her first Christmas I thought I wonder if I can do that using my amazing embroidery software.
After a few months I now think I know just how to get it to look great.
I searched the WWW but so far have not found anyone else doing the same thing.
But that does not mean no one else has come up with the same idea.  
Just I have not come across it yet.
I hope you love my "prints for loved ones" they will make fantastic presents for mum on mothers day, dad on fathers day, grandparent, aunts and uncles alike.

 
Happy New Year may 2011 be the year that dreams come true and memories are made.
