Thank you! I’m in Witta, just near Maleny, in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland. I will look those up! So far we’ve only been to Spotlight at Maroochydore, which seems to have gone downhill since I was last here – it’s more a place for kids craft supplies than artists materials, though it has cheap fabrics for sewing garments.

My very favouritest in the approximate area is Fifi’s Fabricology in Burleigh Heads, about 80km north of Brisbane (don’t know which side you are), also Beaudesert Sewing Centre (same distance, west of Brisbane). I don’t go fabric shopping much in the centre. Both those places have websites if you want to check them out.

Thank you – I’m very happy to be here! If you have any recommendations for craft and fabric shops in the Brisbane area (or even in Melbourne, where we’re planning a visit) please feel free to share!
My Aussie creatures are just the ghost of an idea at the moment, but I will be working on those thoughts and hopefully they will metamorphose into something tangible before too long!
