Classes include Jacobean Wall Hanging, Patchwork jacket, Embroidered Bear, Heirloom Xmas Bead Tree, Golly Gosh wall hanging, Naive Bag and a sampler quilt.
June has over 1000 bolts of fabric in stock, many of which I hadn't seen before, and is expecting the full range of Thimbleberries to be delivered shortly. They are happy to cut pieces as small as 10cm if required.

They had a good range of country and brights, fantastic range of patterns such as Candlelight Creations, Rosalie Quinlan, etc. Heaps of samples in their shop, and you leave feeling simply inspired! They also had a few BOMs you can pick from.

There is a brown sign on the main highway that goes through the Sebastapol suburb to turn into Walker St. It is the bluestone building with the big lawns and driveway in front, right at the end of the street. It is well signed on the front fence, and there is parking around the back of the shop. What a fantastic range of fabrics! I bought 7 matching prints in a dusky mauve, olive green and dusky apricot range, chasing colours out of one feature print that was stunning. There is plenty of sunlight to help with this, and she was generous with measurements. What more could you want? I guess I'd prefer my fabrics cut, but if they're generous then that allows for the weft going awry as it can.
2) It was really easy to find, even though Rose is "directionally challenged" and I hadn't been there before. And I left the directions at home.... =% P We had a great time there, such a fantastic array of colours available, I went completely berserk and bought 8 metres of stuff before escaping to have a delicious lunch at the restaurant on Lake Wendouree. The drive was easy.

It has been opened in what was the old butter factory (this is a prime dairy area) and is next door to one of Victoria's well known boutique breweries so there is something to keep partners busy during a visit. It is all very new so as yet they do not have a lot of materials but the place is very well set out with old furnishings and lots of quilting

In Carolyn’s home where she has a shop and also takes classes.   It proved a little difficult to find even with the GPS, but was certainly worth while and even though she had a class at the time we were there, she could not have been more helpful.
Absolutely wonderful service and although the shop is very small at this stage, another room is being built out the back. She specializes in hand work .   The shop specializes in Reproduction Fabrics although she does have other fabric as well.
Can certainly recommend this shop.
