Unfortunately, Anni was away in Tasmania doing a workshop & many of her most recent samples were travelling with her, but Margaret, who was taking care of the store for the day, generously gave me permission to take some photos to show you all. So enjoy the tour!
Beautiful quilts line the walls ...
... there ...
... and everywhere!
Luscious fabrics at every turn ...
Tempting bundles of loveliness tied up with bows ...
Freshcut fat quarters ...
Felts in every colour imaginable ...
... and felt designs from Anni ...
Sweet dancing dollies ...
Some Hatched & Patched needlepunch originals
... and more samples of Anni's whimsical stitchery & applique designs ...
Overwhelmed with creative inspiration we dragged ourselves from this wonderful shop, returned home & started planning our next projects! What better way to spend the day?!
This is like a fantasy, I would go crazy if I was able to visit a shop like that. There is something very special about Australian shops/designers/fabrics/patterns...

ReplyDeleteAnni's shop is just gorgeous isn't it! I haven't been to her new one, she used to be in a different location when she first opened and it was TINY, but oh so FULL of beautiful things.
ReplyDeleteIt is such a treat to be able to visit places like this isn't it.
Glad you enjoyed yourself.
Love that shop and excited about the fact that in the not to distant future I will not be far away from it!! Just far enough though to not be there all the time.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tour of Anni's shop. Gorgeous photos. I was lucky enough to meet Anni when she was in Tasmania.
