You know how it is.<br />
Life gets busy. The blog gets neglected. Yada - yada.<br />
<br />
Lots has been happening lately. Our little boy is now 13 months old. He's cute. He's cheeky. He's full of energy. He's determined. He's lots of fun. He is also going to be a big brother sometime in June/ July area. Yep. Already a big brother! We're looking forward with some trepidation to the craziness that is to descend with 2 under 18 months.<br />

Due to requests, I have released two patterns recently. Our first pattern, the <a href="https://www.etsy.com/au/listing/108228188/pdf-pattern-for-chevron-patchwork-quilt?ref=shop_home_active_3" target="_blank">Summertime Chevron Quilt</a>, continues to be a popular purchase on our <a href="https://www.etsy.com/au/shop/MissyMackCreations?ref=si_shop" target="_blank">Etsy shop</a>, with many people around the world making their own version. We now have added our little navy and lime <a href="https://www.etsy.com/au/listing/109166388/pdf-pattern-for-geometric-modern-cot?ref=shop_home_feat_4" target="_blank">Geo Cot Quilt</a> to the mix, and our <a href="https://www.etsy.com/au/listing/179024470/pdf-pattern-for-owl-bunting-garland-make?ref=shop_home_active_1" target="_blank">String of Owls</a> Bunting.<br />
I very much enjoy writing and releasing patterns, and something I'm looking forward to doing more of in the future.<br />

Our <a href="http://stores.ebay.com.au/MissyMackCreations" target="_blank">eBay shop</a> keeps me rather busy, which is ideal! We have new ranges from Moda constantly arriving at our doorstep, and leaving again soon after to new homes. Our popular ranges lately have been April Showers by Bonnie and Camille, Hello Petal by Aneela Hoey, and Bluebird Park by Kate and Paper Birdie Co. If you've bought some fabric from us, and made a finished item - why not share it? We'd love to see it!<br />

I recently participated in the #greataussiedestash on Instagram. Talk about crazy fun. I was able to destash a lot of fabrics, and of course, bought quite a fair amount too. Incredibly some Heather Ross goodies. I have some wonderful plans for my new purchases. Check us out on Instagram. Our username is missymack. Destashes happen regularly - so if you're keen to grab a bargain, follow our feed.<br />

The Winter months have been lovely, and I do enjoy the cooler weather. But something in me is craving the sunshine and fresh air! I think I've been cooped up inside too long!<br />
<br />
Here is a snapshot of our life lately. It's been busy. But hey, having a baby is busy work!<br />
Jonathan is nearly 8 months old now, and he sits all by himself. He is starting to commando crawl forwards, (and backwards!) and has such a cheeky personality.<br />
<br />
- Our owl bunting strings were recently featured in the Herald Sun Newspaper 'Home' Magazine<br />
- We've been kept busy selling Moda fabric online, through our ebay shop, and also Facebook.<br />
- Jonathan has taken well to his solid food, and particularly enjoys pumpkin, sweet potato, yoghurt, blueberries and banana. Not all at the same time, of course!<br />
- We are greatly enjoying decorating and renovating our home. I've just styled my new office area, with an inspiration board, a custom made clock, a gorgeous wooden desk, and other bits and pieces.<br />
- I've been overloaded with orders for custom quilts, owl buntings and nursery accessories. So much so, that I'm going to take a break for custom quilt orders - just for a few months.<br />
- And mostly, we've been enjoying days together as a family. We love outings!<br />

We've set up a new <a href="https://www.facebook.com/mmpatchworkfabric" target="_blank">Facebook page</a>, purely devoted to the lovely fabrics we sell. It's a simple and easy way to view and purchase the ranges we have, and items are mailed out quickly, within 12-24 hours.<br />
<br />
Facebook is a great community, and we hope to you visit our store sometime. We have many ranges in stock from Moda, including Morris Modernized, Bluebird Park, Flats, Sweet Serenade and more. With new fabrics arriving every 1-3 weeks, make sure you bookmark us to keep up to date.<br />
<br />
We also can't wait for this super sweet new range from Aneela Hoey to arrive, titled Hello Petal. Seriously. How cute are those cats?!<br />
<br />
Happy sewing!<br />

The delicious new range from Bonnie and Camille, titled 'Scrumptious' is proving to be just as popular as their previously wonderful ranges. With touches of 'Ruby' and hints of 'Marmalade', it's a pretty and sweet range. I'm envisioning it as hexagons - which by the way, are also hugely popular again.<br />
<br />
So, due to it's popularity, we have almost sold out of all our pre-order release of Scrumptious in our <a href="http://stores.ebay.com.au/MissyMackCreations" target="_blank">shop</a>, with only 2 Charm Packs available. If you missed out now, don't fret! I have Layer Cakes, Jelly Rolls and Charm Packs, along with some yardage, due to arrive when the full range is released - around October area.<br />
<br />
If you're making anything with this lovely range at the moment - please share! We'd love to see!<br />
<br />
20/6 Edit: Check out <a href="http://lilabellelane.blogspot.com.au/" target="_blank">Lilabelle Lane</a>'s beautiful work with the Scrumptious Range. She is making some gorgeous framed Hexies, which is something on my 'to do' sewing list. Which may be awhile in the making.<br />

We're a little excited at Missy Mack.<br />
We just received a pre order shipment of the awesome new range by <a href="http://www.sweetwater.typepad.com/" target="_blank">Sweetwater</a>, "<a href="http://sweetwater.typepad.com/makelifesweet/2013/03/road-15.html" target="_blank">Road 15</a>."<br />
I've always been a huge Sweetwater fan. I loved 'Authentic', and made a quilt for Simon out of their 'Pure' range, and how cool was 'Noteworthy?' I still have a jelly roll in the Noteworthy range, that I will eventually make something pretty with. <i>Eventually</i>.<br />

So, 'Road 15' is typical in fantastic Sweetwater style. We have little prints of maps and streets, including sweet houses and trees. But there is something else about this range that I think is <i>really</i> cool. A while back when designing this range, Sweetwater asked for some input from their blog readers. They asked for readers address's! Yep, so I added our address, and imagine our shock and delight when (after a few minutes of searching!) Simon found our address! One cannot get any cooler than that!<br />

So, I'm delighted to share my newest favourite range of fabric with you. Whilst I think it's brilliant, it's also a fab range for boys with the great colours of aqua, red, green with bits of black and grey.<br />
<br />
'Road 15' can be found in our <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/MissyMackCreations?ref=si_shop" target="_blank">Etsy shop</a>, along with another new range, 'S'more Love,' by Julie Comstock of Cosmo Cricket. They can also be found on our <a href="http://www.ebay.com.au/sch/madboutspots/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=25&_trksid=p3686" target="_blank">eBay page</a> (our eBay shop coming soon!)<br />
Prices start from $34.00 for Jelly Rolls and Layer Cakes.<br />
We are also getting some bolts from the Road 15 range, due in around August.<br />
<br />
Happy sewing!<br />

Mid last year, I had a lovely email from a mum, Katie, who wanted her two young daughters to have a special quilt of their own. And so Katie and I set about on a journey together! Numerous emails and catch ups followed, with chats about colours, styles and sizes.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The brief was two large single bed sized quilts in the same fabrics, but one quilt a chevron inspired, and the second a ruffled circle. Katie, her two lovely daughters and I met up at Patchwork with Gail B to find fabrics, and together we demolished a corner of the store as we chose our fabrics. It was wonderful to meet Katie and her daughters, and to choose the fabrics together. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The results are two very pretty and very feminine quilts. It was a delight to make these quilts for Katie, and then to be able to deliver them to her personally was wonderful. It's not often you get to see the happy response when someone buys and receives their quilt. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Thank you Katie for letting my make your quilts! I hope they become treasured and loved heirlooms in your family. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The details:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
A lot of the fabric used are from the following ranges, Coquette by Art Gallery, Summer Loving by Art Gallery and Sophie by Moda, with a handful of 1930's prints and other plains. The quilts have each girls name embroidered on the front bottom right corner of their quilt. They have a Bamboo batting, and were beautifully machine quilted by my friend Clair (just before Christmas too - you champ Clair!!) They both have a simple pink polka dot backing, with personalised labels and a photo for each girl. </div>

But, the quilt hasn't been forgotten. It was pinned by some innocent person on Pinterest, and is now floating around on various baby and nursery boards. A little bit of excitement here, yes!<br />
<br />
It's become so popular that it was even used as inspiration for a Scrapbooking Card making challenge.<br />
Christine, from <a href="http://www.practicalscrappers.com/" target="_blank">Practical Scrappers</a>, sent me a message to say that my navy and lime quilt was used as inspiration for a card making contest on their blog. You can check out all the amazing cards <a href="http://www.practicalscrappers.com/2013/02/card-contest-top-16.html" target="_blank">here</a>. There are some very talented ladies out there!<br />
<br />
So, it looks like navy and lime is a winning combination, especially for nurseries. And especially for a boy. It's nice to see a colour combination other than just baby blue.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
So, if you're thinking of how to style your nursery - try navy and lime!<br />

Thank you for helping me to celebrate the birth of our boy, our engagement anniversary, and my 1 year of having an Etsy shop!<br />
<br />
Deborah is the winner of our little giveaway, and she chose to win the Aneela Hoey Jelly Roll. So, what was in the mystery box? Not telling! But don't worry - it wasn't just a dirty old sock. Oh well, it will just have to go back in my stash!<br />
<br />
Congratulations Deborah! I'll email you shortly to get your postal address.<br />
<br />
I better get back to my little man and his gorgeous smiles!<br />
<br />
By the way, the photos are of a little needlecase and present I made for my brother in laws girlfriend for Christmas. She loves knitting and is just starting to get into needlework.<br />

We've just had a baby.<br />
My husband, Simon and I got engaged two years ago.<br />
And it's officially one year since I opened my Etsy shop.<br />
<br />
I feel like celebrating! Who's with me??<br />
<br />
To celebrate these wonderful things I'm having a giveaway.<br />
<br />
I started off selling handmade owl bunting in my Etsy shop, followed by patchwork quilts, patterns and nursery accessories. And now of course I have also added Moda Jelly Rolls, Layer Cakes and Charm Packs.<br />
<br />
So I thought a giveaway for a Moda Jelly Roll and a Chevron PDF Patchwork Quilt Pattern might be in order.<br />
<br />
The "Sew Stitchy" range by Aneela Hooey is a wonderful celebration of all things sewing related, including hexagons, pins and even a few little birds. It features fresh colours of pink, aqua, grey, lime green, red and white. It's a fun and happy range, and seeing as this is a fun and happy time of my life - I thought it would suit!<br />
I have these Jelly Rolls available in my shop, <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/113454083/moda-sew-stitchy-jelly-roll-by-aneela" target="_blank">here</a>.<br />

Now, here is how my giveaway will work.<br />
For you have a choice to make.<br />
<br />
Either, you can enter to win the Sew Stitchy Jelly Roll, and a Chevron Quilt PDF Pattern.<br />
Or, you can enter to win the mystery box prize.<br />
What is the mystery box prize? Well, that would defeat the purpose of the mystery, wouldn't it??<br />
<br />
But, I have this box, in my sewing room. And in that box could be piles of fabric, or even more jelly rolls, or perhaps a sewing book or pattern? Or all of the above? Or maybe, it might contain an old pair of socks.... or one of Jonathans bibs....<br />
Oh, the intrigue.<br />
<br />
So, this is your gamble. You can either play it safe, or try for the mystery box prize. The choice is yours and entirely up to you!<br />
<br />
So to enter...<br />
<br />
- Leave a comment on this post. Make sure you mention in your comment which prize you would like, either the Jelly Roll and pattern, or the mystery box.<br />
- For an extra entry, share my giveaway on your blog. Make sure you let me know though!<br />
- And for another extra entry, like our page on <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Missy-Mack/303729103010060" target="_blank">Facebook</a>. If you are already a 'liked' friend of Missy Mack, you will get an extra entry too. Again, make sure you let me know!<br />
<br />
Giveaway is open to Australian residents only (sorry international people - I'll have a giveaway for you guys soon!! I promise!) and will close on the 14th of February (naww! Valentines Day!) at 6pm AEDST.<br />
<br />
Good luck, and thanks for sharing in my celebrations!MissyMackhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07015291035882119757noreply@blogger.com19tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2378954966626149853.post-68133081091620933772013-02-02T13:01:00.000+11:002013-02-02T13:03:20.841+11:00Moda Fabric<div>

Gosh.<br />
<div>
Getting any sort of letters or mail in the post box is exciting. </div>
<div>
Surely I'm not the only one who gets a little thrill when something other than a bill is found in the letter box?</div>
<div>
Being a visual and tactile sort of girl, I much prefer recieving something by snail mail, rather than email. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So, of course - receiving fabric in the mail would have to be even more exciting, yes? </div>
<div>
Yes. It is! </div>

Our latest fun items that comes in the mail is Moda Fabric! Yum, yum!<br />
<br />
Here at Missy Mack, we now have a small little collection of Moda Pre Cuts available in our Etsy Shop for purchase. I'm quite a Moda fan, and I love the versatility and fun of Jelly Rolls and Layers Cakes. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We have a few different ranges available now, and we just had a delivery of the following new Moda ranges - "Happy Go Lucky" by Bonnie and Camille, "Winters Lane" by Kate and Birdie Paper Co., and "Spring House" by Stephanie Ryan.</div>

I think I've been waiting for at least 10 years for the excuse to sew baby items! For some reason it didn't feel quite 'right' to me to be sewing clothes or nursery knick knacks when I wasn't even married. It felt like I might be getting a bit too ahead of myself.<br />
<br />
But now - I am free to let my creativity run when it comes to all things 'baby'! So I thought I would share with you my creations along the way, and include a few tutorials for some things.<br />
<br />
Firstly our nursery. Since we are having a surprise, and will only find out the gender once our baby makes their grand entrance, I decided a neutral colour scheme was a must. At first I thought mint green and grey, but I have now added some more colour to that, with the addition of apricot, aqua, teal, lemon and white. It's gorgeous. It's neither boy or girl. And I love it!<br />

We have painted our nursery walls the classic Dulux Antique White USA. We wanted something smart and simple, and I particularly like white, or near white, walls. I find blogs like <a href="http://dreamywhites.blogspot.com.au/" target="_blank">Dreamy Whites</a>, and <a href="http://themeadowbrookblog.blogspot.com.au/" target="_blank">Meadowbrook Farm</a>, particularly lovely. And it's because of their gorgeous white walls, and colourfully country decorating pieces they include. I've realised I admire and like the Modern Farmhouse style of home very much. Thankfully our little cottage lends itself to this style quite nicely!<br />

Whilst the painting is complete, the nursery itself is still a work in progress. I have a feeling it will always be tweaked and adjusted, even well after the baby arrives! Our lovely cot was a gift from my parents and my Omi and Opa, whilst the change table I scored for $60 off Ebay. One cannot describe how thrilled I am with it. We still have plans for shelving, a new door, some more colourful artwork, curtains, a rug and other bits, like a light fitting. But, you know, one can't do all these things in a rush.<br />

One of my creations that I'm just so happy with is my nappy or diaper stacker. I had been thinking about it for months, and finally the day of inspiration struck and it was complete within a few hours. I made the pattern myself, and it also includes a sturdy base, so it doesn't flop when half empty. It's not a particularly large stacker, as I wanted something a bit more compact and neat.<br />
It's now proudly hanging off the change table, full of nappies and ready for some use!<br />

I also now sell them as custom made items in my Etsy Shop. Head on over and have a look, even if you aren't interested in the nappy stacker, I have lots of other bits and pieces, including some fabric.<br />

Well, with only 4 and a bit weeks to go, we are sneaking ever so closer to having a baby in our house! I still can't believe it's actually really happening. Simon and I are going to be parents! Eek! I know Simon is going to be a great and wonderful father, but I'm sure it's only natural to have doubts about our own abilities, isn't it? I just hope I measure up to the task! If I can be half as good a mum as my own mother - I'll be very content and happy!<br />

A small baby blessing was held at our home a few weeks ago to celebrate out little possum. A few close friends and family members came to eat and drink, and then pray over Simon, myself and our baby. It was a wonderful and happy little occasion, and a delight to have possum blessed.<br />
I had a fabulous time decorating the house in our "Cute as a Button" theme, and styling the food to match. It was a lot of work, but oh, so worth it!<br />

My lovely and talented sister in law also induldged us with some baby bump photos to mark our pregnancy. As you can tell - we are so not 'model/posing' people! But it was great fun, and we now have some lovely photos to remember our baby journey.<br />
<br />
And isn't it so nice to be able to wash baby clothes!? The best kind of washing, by far! <br />

There are appointments to go to, bloods to have taken from you, doctors to see, a nursery to create, and things to buy. Mind you - the whole nursery creating and buying things has been super fun! I cannot even begin to describe how much fun it has been to set up our nursery and daydream about our little possum sleeping there. More on that later though - as I'm really keen to share some photos with you of Possums nursery so far. </div>

And I know what most of you are thinking - if I think I'm busy now, just wait till a baby enters the household!! Yes, I'm well aware that my delusions of being busy at the moment will be a far cry from the constant need and attention that a baby demands. But at least that will be my sole job and object - and I won't have to concern myself with other responsibilities, like work, just yet!</div>

My Etsy shop is growing steadily, and I am really enjoying making and selling my handmade wares. I love that all around the world, there are little nurseries or couches adorned with my owl bunting, or a cushion cover, or a patchwork quilt. There is something so timeless and personal about a handmade item, made with love and attention. And I really enjoy sharing that with likeminded people who appreciate it. </div>
<div>

We are nearly about to have our 50th sale on Etsy, which is so awfully exciting! I still remember my first sale and how I screamed and yelled and raced outside to share the news with Simon. And each sale I make now, I still get incredibly excited! </div>

So, do you remember the above pile of prettiness I shared a while ago? This lovely collection is a custom order for a young mum and her two daughters - one chevron quilt, and one circle quilt. The chevron quilt top is nearly complete, and looking so soft and pretty. It has been a joy and pleasure to work with this mum and these gorgeous fabrics. We are both looking forward to seeing the two quilts finished - hopefully before Christmas! </div>

I quite adore this quilt. I really do.<br />
It's a colour scheme I'd never have normally picked, but I'm so glad I did. There is something so fresh, and so clean about Navy and Lime, with a lot of white.<br />
Almost makes me want to change the colour scheme for our nursery. <i>Almost. </i><br />

This little quilt is perfect for a cot, and has been made using half square triangles just placed about randomly. I do quite like the random, messy, craziness of it all. 'Tis fun!<br />
It's currently up for sale in my Etsy Shop. Hopefully it will go to a great home.<br />

It's been awhile since I've written a quilt pattern for a magazine, so I admit to feeling a bit of nervous apprehension with this post. You know how it is. You put so much energy and time and effort into something, then to release it to the world, at the risk of rejection and correction - it's quite scary!<br />
I only hope that the reading, and the re-reading, and the checking and double checking have found any and all necessary corrections!<br />

So, whilst it is with a bit of nerves, it's also with great excitement that I officially release my first Missy Mack pattern to the general public! *deliriously imagines cherry applause*<br />
<br />
The pattern is called Summertime Chevron, and includes instructions for the pictured Cot quilt. But it also includes further instructions for a Single/Twin variation, and a Queen size quilt.<br />
It is a striking and pretty quilt, and one I am quite proud of.<br />
<br />
The pattern is available in either a PDF form, or a paper hardcopy version, and both can be found in my <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/MissyMackCreations?ref=si_shop" target="_blank">Etsy shop here</a>.<br />
<br />
So to celebrate, I will be giving away one Paper Hardcopy version of Summertime Chevron, plus a Moda Odds and Ends Charm Pack to the winner.<br />
<br />
To enter, simply leave a comment on this post for one entry. For another bonus entry, blog about this giveaway, (please let me know if you blog about it, so I can add your entry!)<br />
Giveaway will close in one week from today, so that is Wednesday the 12th of September at 7pm AEST.<br />
<br />
Good luck!<br />

I can't begin to tell you how much I'm looking forward to working with these delightful prints. We have some gorgeous Art Gallery Fabrics in here, amongst some Moda favourites.<br />
<br />
These two quilts will be going to two lovely little sisters whom I had the pleasure of meeting this week, along with their mummy.<br />
<br />
'Till I can get started, at least the lovely prints will adorn my sewing table!<br />

Literally any day now, a little baby boy will be born, who will get to sleep under this Black, Yellow, Grey and White Chevron Quilt. A local Melbourne girl contacted me, wanting to complete her nursery style with a funky and modern quilt in this colour scheme. Particularly in a Chevron design (see, I told you Chevrons were popular!)<br />

So, after numerous conversations and chats about fabric choices, this was our result. A super funky, and super modern quilt for her new little boy. I am particularly pleased with the technical aspects of this little quilt, and how it turned out. </div>

It required a bit of thinking to achieve the directional fabric prints to run in the correct way, and that was fun. It was great for my pregnant brain to have to think a bit more! </div>
<div>
The backing is, of course, pieced from left over scraps.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Good news? Caseii absolutely loves her quilt! Which makes me one very happy designer and crafter! </div>
<div>
Caseii, I hope you and your family enjoy it for many years to come! Good luck with your new little boy!<br />

Being a quilt that is designed to ruffle and fray with love and wear, I just couldn't decide how best to quilt it. I had thoughts of quilting multiple circles all over it; of doing shadow quilting in the fabric circles; endless ideas.<br />
<br />

In the end I stuck with what I know, and randomly stipple quilted the whole thing. Love.it.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Sometimes I think it's best to stick with what I know, and what's familiar. My lovely Pfaff Quilt Expression 4.0 is fantabulous at stipple quilting, as it allows me to adjust the pivot height and the tension to make it just perfect. Every day I use my lovely big sewing machine, and every day she's a pleasure to work with!<br />

So, on to the circle quilt! The range of fabric is "Ginger Blossom" by <a href="http://www.sandihendersondesign.com/category-s/84.htm" target="_blank">Sandi Henderson</a> for Michael Miller. I simply cut a larger circle from a template, then folded that circle into quarters to cut out a smaller inner circle. Then it was just a matter of laying out the circles on some plain white homespun and sewing them down. Very easy and a lot of fun.<br />
<br />

<br /></div>
The quilt measures about 50" square, and has been washed already to give it that lovely crinkly, fluffy look. The backing was made up with a lovely plain green, mixed in with some scarps from the front.<br />
So a year later, but worth the wait. <br />
