Aussie Aussie Aussie! Where To Shop in Australia

From time to time I get asked about where I source sup­plies loc­ally and I thought it would be a good idea to do a quick round up of some of the shops and stores I use.    For all of you guys on the oth­er side of the world… our dol­lar is still quite abysmal so there’s likely to be some good sav­ings for you all too!

There are a tonne of great shops in Aus­tralia and more and more of them are cre­at­ing great web­site that make it easy to shop online.   Patches at Indoo­roopilly is one of those shops.   I popped in there the oth­er day and picked up this amaz­ing low volume print from Vic­tor­ia Find­lay Wolfe’s latest col­lec­tion, Mostly Man­ner.  They also have a great col­lec­tion of Moda and Cot­ton & fab­ric lines just to name a few.

Pep­per­mint Stitches is quite loc­al for me too.  I love drop­ping by there but also love their online ser­vice.   There has been many times my hus­band had to pick up an emer­gency order on the way home from work!   Pep­per­mint Stitches was where I sourced all of the fab­rics for a new pat­tern I have com­ing out later this year, The Baby Bailey quilt.

Of course, there is also Ava & Neve, pur­vey­ors of all things Liberty and also here in Bris­bane.   Check out their online store and get a bit of Liberty Love hap­pen­ing at your place!  And, if you’d like to make one of these Liberty heart gift tags you can click here to be taken to the tutorial.

Along with all the great places to shop there is also some great things hap­pen­ing in Aus­tralia like the new retreat that is the brain child of Jules  from Pro­cras­ti­craft.    Its called The Cre­at­ive Retreat and there is a retreat com­ing up in June with Cheryl Arkin­son.  There are still lim­ited places avail­able so get in quick!

And if you’re look­ing for more fab­ric and sup­plies you can also check out these guys.  They all provide great ser­vice and have great prices too!

This list cer­tainly isn’t exhaust­ive.  There are a heap more great places to shop in Aus­tralia.  If you know of one that isn’t lis­ted here it would be so great if you could share its name and weblink in the comments.

Have great week (& happy shopping!)
