After seeing a bit of discussion and still not finding any concrete info about US tariffs coming into effect on the 29th of August, I’m making the tough call to pause shipments to the US from Monday 18th 2025 at 9am AEDT.

If more information comes to light, and fees remain on the low side for customers (ie, 10% tariff for Australia) I’ll turn shipping back on.

If the fee is $80usd per parcel, then I won’t be able to send to the US anymore. This is devastating as around half my orders are from there. 😓

Wish me luck!

New Things!

New things have landed! New ocean pins, and some new colourways of the peony mini pin are now listed 💖 Which one is your favourite? I'm quite fond of the little turtle hatchling, and tried to make the pose sorta match my little penguin pin!

So excited for my first Adelaide event this year! I'll be at Bowerbird Market on the 2nd - 4th May at the Adelaide Showgrounds. Hope to see some of you there!

My druid bunny design in cross stitch form! This was a fun one to translate, and I changed up the colours to be a little more forest-y! 🌲

This little rabbit cutie is hanging out on a crescent moon! Still one of my favourites from the Fluffy Buns Kickstarters from 2021. Where did the past 3 years go!?

Only a few of these prints remaining before they are retired. This one has had a good amount of time to shine!

It's Virgo season! I'm part of this cohort, so I tried to illustrate "the maiden" zodiac somewhat uniquely: as a shield maiden/knight, and as hands in the act of gardening or tending to flowers.

Still love the colour combo of the heart iron on patch. Am possibly going to restock the pin in this colour variant soon too!

Been developing new cross stitch patterns! The colour tests take a while, but worth it in the end 😁🪡

Quick announcement! We have to move house, so the shop will be closed from the 24th of June until the 2nd of July. Deadlines for orders are as follows:

Domestic (Aus): 10am AEST Monday 24th of June

International: 12pm AEST Monday 24th of June

It's a busy few weeks ahead, we have the move, then stocktake, then I have 2 markets back to back in early July! Wish us luck!

Been a while since I shared this angel and demon pair! I remember the shape of the demon silhouette being a bit of a challenge, but I like how it turned out. Funnily enough the angel is the more popular of the two, do you agree?

Some abandoned WIPs from long ago. To be honest I haven't been sketching much at all for the last year, burnout has been tricky to shake, and now I think it's also partly since I'm out of the habit of drawing regularly and business things take over. Hope to get back to drawing regularly soon.

It's a busy month or so approaching! We are moving house (yay renting) and then I have two markets back to back, one of which is Finders Keepers Melbourne at the Royal Exhibition Building on July 12-14th! I'll have a slightly different range to the picture attached, since I've got new products, but you can look forward to seeing bright artwork, fun pins and patches, and colourful cross stitch kits. Hope you can make it!

The last cross stitch design to share is medusa! This was the second one I created (the first was moonrise at sunset) and I just love the colour palette so much. It's actually really hard to match colours in the DMC thread range from a picture on a phone or tablet, but I got there in the end!

The Chariot card was one I had sitting as a WIP for a really long time. Until I saw a young kid and their dad riding on an electric skateboard down the street where I live. My first though was "that's a bit dangerous!" but the kid looked like they were having so much fun and it was such a striking image, I immediately went home to draw up a new thumbnail sketch. I think the storytelling is much better in the new version, but I'm curious to hear what you think?

Thanks for the great reception to my cross stitch kits! These were a lot of fun to make and were born from my bad burnout last year where I took up cross stitch as a hobby and then figured I should really try making my own art with the medium! There are 5 designs all together, here are the 3 warrior rabbits which I translated to pixels with thread.

I spent a lot of time figuring out how to create plastic free packaging for these, so ended up usind printed envelopes from Vistaprint (these are surprisingly hard to source in Australia). Packaging is something I always want to find a balance between being recyclable, and protective enough to survive long overseas (and domestic) journeys without being wasteful. It's a big part of why I don't really include freebies in my orders, as personally, I'm the type of customer who doesn't know what to do with extra things I didn't purchase. How about you?
