Frida Panel Skirt
Although spring seems like a distant dream right now, there’s nothing putting on rose tinted glasses and the right Frida fabric won’t fix.
Here’s a quick walk through of how we made this pleated Frida skirt.

Welcome back fabric lovers! We hope you made it safely through the snowpocalypse, and maybe even finished a project or 2 if you were lucky enough to skip work.
Get to Know Us: Alice
Everyday we show you tropical birds with Michael Millar, take you on a woodland journey with Riley Blake, and advise you to embrace your inner Alexander Henry girl. Well recently, we've been thinking maybe it's time to switch our cameras to selfie mode and let you in on our lives a little.
Was it just me or did January seem to go on forrrrrrreverrrrrrrrr?

Welcome to Rico!
If you have ordered buttons from us recently you may have been enamoured with our packing tape (we certainly have been). Featuring cute unicorns, sunny palm trees, colourful ice cream and bright rainbows, the tape was created by Rico Designs and luckily they also produce beautiful fabrics!
Oh such Lovely Llamas ❤️
It was love at first sight when we spotted these Michael Miller Llamas! The colours, the patterns, the subjects! We're partial to everything Latin American here at Fabric Yard and these Peruvian beauties ticked all our boxes.
Cherries, Cowgirls & the Eiffel Tower!
Well we had a delivery of some Michael Miller this week. Alot of 'new to us' ranges that you will have seen about for a while but we are only just getting them in!
Pretty in Pink
Instead of trying to see this slushy January through rose tinted glasses, we recommend bracing yourself with rose tinted fabric.
Ballerinas, Bathing Babes and Trendsetter Houndstooth. What will you make out of them?
New Photo Booth!
It's safe to say the boy done good this week. I posted a photo over on our facebook page this week of the collapsible photo booth my husband got made and there were some requests for more photos so I thought I would do a quick blog post showing you all how it was made!
Christmas is Coming...
Well December has landed and we have some beautiful Christmas fabric ready and waiting! Retro Santas, Winter Wonderland scenes and festive deer abound, we even have some discounted fabric slotted in to wet your appetite.
