17.01.2022 Do you know a #fabrichoarder? Are you a fabric hoarder? Spence has 50 years worth of cotton fabric in her studio. Members of her family who have, in the past, given her a hard time for her extreme habit/obsession have acknowledged their lack of forsight. Her children have apologised for complaining incessantly about the school holidays spent carting bolts around spotlight. We now praise her foresight and see that we were prepping for the future. When the community came calling for facemasks, Spence and all the other fabric hoarders were there. #praiseourmakers #fabricaddict #masksofinstagram #facemasks #maskup #floralcotton #shoplocalaustralia

17.01.2022 In news that will surprise no-one, orders for our face masks have skyrocketed. Spence is doing her very best to get them made in time for the new Victorian deadline but you will need to seek alternatives while you wait for your mask to arrive. We get that this is an incredibly anxious time for everyone and deeply appreciate your patience and perspective. Stay safe out (in) there xx #maskchic

17.01.2022 We are developing new products to include in our new online shop that is in the pipe line. Production of our new super bibs has begun at our home office in Port Campbell. Baby Q has road tested them and weve given them the green light. Made by Spence using cotton fabrics they have long sleeves, are lightly padded and nearly knee length to offer lots of protection in and out of the high chair. Exclusive to Spence Australia - fit for approx 12-19 months old babies. We all know babies vary in size contact us through our email [email protected] . Thanks for your support

Link, as always, in bio x... #kidsfashion #handmadechildrensclothing #handmadekidsclothes #kidstyle @ Port Campbell, Victoria

15.01.2022 Its a shame we have to cover such handsomeness. #handmadefacemasks #facemasks #slowfashion #tartanmask

09.01.2022 So happy that we can source our fabrics from a super local, super isolated fabric shop to cut down on trips to the big smoke during this time. Thanks @lindajanewhite for setting up shop in the middle of a paddock! #maskmaking #makersgonnamake #makersmovement #cottageindustry #localbusiness #shopsmall

09.01.2022 A new beanie emerges.... #spenceaustralia #knitstagram #knitting #babyknits @ Port Campbell, Victoria

09.01.2022 So many koalas. So many colours. Do you know an expat who needs a home turf memento for christmas? #slowfashion #koalalove

08.01.2022 What do you look for in a bib? Spence had had plenty of time to design new products recently. We roadtested a bib today (Its almost impossible to get a photo of this child that isnt blurry). This bib is pretty amazing. Its double thickness, almost knee length, covers the arms and ties behind the neck and has soft ribbing at the cuffs. It means I dont need to put a teatowel over his lap when he eats, nor do I have to change his entire outfit after every meal. ... Its not waterproof (were trying to keep our products natural and environmentally sustainable, the best water proof material tends to be synthetic) but it keeps the gross stains at bay. I think a central pleat would be great to accommodate the high chair saddle bit so theres no bunching up however, we have to streamline production to keep it affordable. What do you think? #kidsfashion #kidstagram @ Port Campbell, Victoria

08.01.2022 Dress down your Canadian tuxedo with a Spence beanie. Nanna calls it the superchimp hat, mummy calls it the cat bandit hat and Q calls it at. Whatever you call it, its perfect for a chilly winter morning walk with dadda. #aussiewool #handknitted #knitstagram #toddlerfashion #knitstagrandma

07.01.2022 Another amazing tea cosy for auction. Spences niece has designed and made this tribute to her (other) aunts beautiful port campbell autumnal home and garden. The artist says: The main body is knitted in great ocean road alpaca and wool blend. The rest in scraps. The green pumpkin used wool I bought in Scotland ten years ago. It needs some sheep wool to come out of the chimney to be smoke... #teaandempathy2020 #knitstagram #woollove See more

01.01.2022 The media may have moved on, yet communities affected by Australias recent bushfire catastrophe certainly havent. Here in Port Campbell, we understand the therapeutic nature of sharing, of crafting and of tea. This is why were inviting knitters, sewists, crocheters and all manner of textile artists from around the world to make a tea cosy, send us the tea cosy and then sell the tea cosy via auction so that ALL the proceeds can be donated to those who need it most. If you...d like to participate by making, we will need to receive your cosy by MONDAY the 6th of April. The Auction will take place on EASTER SUNDAY 12th of April. To register as a maker, please follow the link in our bio. Please share this with anyone who you think might appreciate it.
