Having lived in the tropics for 35 years, the Hubby and I decided it was time for us to have a change, so that’s what we did!
We now live in a quiet township in Country Queensland and we’re both loving the new lifestyle. Leatherwork continues as I have transferred my workshop pretty much as it was, plus there is also plenty of room for another passion - weaving! it’s possible to be involved in wool and other fibres here and it’s something I’ve been yearning to do for a while. I’m still in the early stages of the learning process and it’s been fun so far. A few of my finished items have sold locally which is gratifying for me and great for local business also. Another new retailer has also just opened, selling country style clothing, and I’ve been having fun making western style belts and some hair-on hide bags.
There’s still plenty to do!
If you want to see the places where I’m selling my wares, have a look at Harvest & Co Collective, and Charlotte Rose Country Co. They are both fabulous shops!
