Gorgeous new things at l'uccello

We just had to share this gorgeous new sewing box that has recently been made in the l'uccello studio... It is made using beautiful blue and white fabrics from French General and of course was designed by l'uccello and hand made right here in Melbourne.


 And while we are on the subject of French General we have also received new stock of their divine collection of fabrics 'La Fete de Noel'. They are available in store and on line as fat quarters. 
We think they are divine!




And if you are after some bias binding we have some new stock made from premium quality cottons and fabric from Liberty of London. Just beautiful!

l'uccello new deliveries just in time for the Craft and Quilt Fair

It has been a busy time at l'uccello. 
We have been setting up for the Craft and Quilt Fair  and as you can see from the image of our stall EZ06 below it is crammed full of goodies so please come and visit!
We have also been unpacking a new batch of vintage sack cloths, if you have been waiting for these beauties don't delay as our stock is limited. They are available in store and at the Fair.
It has also been a labour of love packing our divine vintage sequins into sweet little bottles. These sequins and tiny beads come in so many lovely designs and colours and the vintage tags have  delighted us....
And just to add a little more charm to our days we have been unpacking the most beautiful flowers and vintage stamens as well as new fabrics by Liberty of London and Mas d' Ouvan.
