The weekend before last I toddled off to the Finders Keepers Market in Melbourne.
I was on a mission !
Shannon's stall looked great and she and Kirst cracked me up with their stitching conversation.
2nd stop - Yardage design - you guys remember Nic, and her beautiful bunting....
well you can see why I needed to have some of this new fabric as well. It is divine and appeals to my love of typography in a big way.
Then, with my eye on the prize, I sought out Victoria Mason (who is just lovely by the way)
and bought my hearts desire.

Oh Jodie that is gorgeous !!
Lots of wonderful thinks there and I can see why you loved the necklace. It is very unusual.
Oh wow! That necklace is gorgeous!!
I love the necklace in fact I need the necklace.
Fabulous shopping, Jodie!
So jealous! Was eyeing if off at Finders Keepers as well.
My cousin has that necklace and I am envious every time she wears it. Finders Keepers sounds like it was fabulous!
omg the necklace is fabulous! I'm going to save up and get one .. that is just too fantastic for words.. love it... and the buttons and fabric are quite nice too.. but not as awesome as the necklace!
I have never seen anything like that necklace , that is just amazing !
I don't wear necklaces, at all, but that is lovely. And the punctuation fabric is most excellent also.
Sweetwater for Moda "pure" has several prints with ampersands on. And I think American Jane has a range just about out called Punctuation - not sure haven't see it properly yet.
That sounds like a jolly good day out - very nice haul!
Cheers,
AJ
Oooh, yum, yummy prizes -- you do have a keen eye Ms. RicRac! I LOVE that fabric -- typography indeed!
It's all so lovely
Oh that fabric is awesome! So so cute.
Cool stuff there! What fun.
You know that was made from a golden pencil don't you? A real actual golden pencil covered in red paint to keep the magpies off it.
It's just perfect for someone who works in a school too!!
I love the typographical fabric too, those curly brackets are fab.
But what are ya gonna do with 'em Jodie, what? Huh, what? Don't keep us guessing!
[sigh] I have market day envy... all lovely things Jodie but the fabric is my favourite. Amazing necklace!!
Oh green with envy! I've always loved the shapes pencil shavings make. Somebody is very clever.
I was at Finders Keepers too! It was great, wasn't it!? I thought you might have had a stall there actually. I did a post about it, but I wanted to let you know about my most recent post instead, I'm wondering if you've heard of the Melbourne Reef project? http://stylewilderness.blogspot.com/2010/10/crochet-your-own-coral-reef.html

I have just had a giggle at your last post re: Facebook! I hope you can suss it out okay, sorry not to be able to help on that one - it makes my mind boggle! I still can't text on a mobile phone sweetie - how 'albatross' is that???? predictive text - and I don't know how to get rid of it and so therefore never use it!

Excellent haul!
That necklace is stunning - good choice!
Oh my goodness, oh my goodness!! I have some of Shannon's cushions in my shop, and she is the most delightful, efficient, and lovely person to deal with. I LOVE Aunty Cookie stuff! I didn't know she was at the Finders Keepers Market, I'd love to make the trip and meet her... it'd be a great little day trip for me.
Love that fabric too... especially in the red. Yum.
