Linen, Bicycle & Flowers

I had a vision of a pretty girl riding her bicycle through lavender fields. She is wearing a white lace dress and carrying a very stylish, linen backpack.

Admittedly, I couldn't find a lavender field in Brisbane but I did discover pretty Kylie Timmins who brought along her bicycle to be my model today in a local park.

I enjoy being part of the blogging community and Kylie and I met via our blogs. When I saw her wedding photos (this is the dress she wore) and her bicycle on hers... I knew that I had found my muse.

No lavender here but the flowers we bought are a shade of lavender, no?

This is a sneek preview of our Summer backpack, a design collaboration between Thea & Sami and Lyssy May. The bag is French-inspired, hand-printed and natural linen inside and out. Even the cord is 100% linen because I just love linen!

If you are visiting the Life Instyle trade show, you may view our new accessories range up close. Contact us to make a personal viewing appointment, otherwise you will find us at Stand 226.

Thank you dear Kylie for a lovely day in the park today. Visit Kylie's sweet blog: Flying Ducks.

Hi Thea, thanks for linking into my blog. I've very new to all this.

I follow Kylie quite regulalry and have known her for quite a few years now. I checked her blog today and came straight over to take a look.

Love the simplicity of the prints you do. So perfect.

Heading off to do a refresher screen printing course here in Sydney next weekend. Can't wait. Trying desperately to get my artwork finished tonight.

Thanks again and great blog
