FOR LISTINGS FURTHER SOUTH See..SOUTH COAST including GOLD COAST
SOUTHBANK
Other must-sees are the markets at Southbank on Friday night and Saturday
and Sunday during the day, Riverside Markets on Sundays at Riverside in the
city,
the markets in The Valley on Saturdays. At the moment my favourite markets
are the Valley and Riverside. Southbank markets have an antiques and
collectables market on Sundays as well.
To go to the markets in the city (Southbank and Riverside) my favourite
routine is to go to Southbank, park there, wander the markets there, then go
down to the river and catch the ferry round to the other side of the city
and get off at Riverside, wander the markets there, maybe have lunch at one
of the restaurants there, catch the ferry back to Southbank and then home
after maybe a picnic/bbq dinner in the gardens at Southbank.
If you have children and are going to follow this scenario make sure that
you take bathers & towels with you as there is a "beach" complete with
lifeguard, at Southbank which my two young hellions love to go swimming at
if it is warm enough. All in all a very relaxing way to spend a Sunday.

e-mail: vincejwright@bytesite.com.au
Hours: Monday to Saturday 9.30am -4.00pm
This new store has a moderate and growing stock of good quality 100%
cotton quilting fabrics at discount prices, at $5, $7.50 and $10 a metre,
with a metre minimum cut, and pre-cut FQs at $2.00 and $2.50 each!
The owner, Jaqui Wright, also has a large range of her own exquisite hand
dyed fabric , at $10 for a generous 100cm X 50cm piece, and will do a
special dye lot for bigger or different pieces should you want it.
Basic quilting classes will begin soon, and speciality and advanced
classes will be offered later depending on demand.
Jaqui carries a small range of those essential quilting notions, like rotary
cutters and blades, rulers, etc., that can be hard to find in the more
general fabric shops between Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast. Jaqui intends
to offer mail order, with a special service to groups, soon.
2)
I visited Patchaholics at Burpengary (just north of Brisbane on the Bruce Highway) for the first time this week and it is a wonderful shop - well worth a trip. Not a huge range of fabric, but big enough, and all of them are the useful sort. Prices seems to be mainly either $11.50 a metre or $15.00 a metre but they are the sort of quality which would be quite a few dollars more in some shops. In fact, I've seen a few of them for up to $21 in other shops!
The lady running the shop was pleasant and friendly and it was pleasure to shop there. I have no affiliations and did not even know it existed until 2 days ago but I do recommend a visit. It's in Station Road and a very helpful man in the post office pointed me in the right direction.
