Bernadette impressed us by arriving for a job interview wearing Mavis Marks’ Women’s Business design. Apart from being stylish she’s also got a really interesting CV in music/management and will help wrangle our AV space. She’s now joined our @songlines_australia team and had the job of unpacking fresh stock from an @ikuntjiartists / @pubtextiles collaboration. These are super cute and very wearable. Just gotta get them into our inventory 🤪 (easier said than done).

Stay posted for updates. We’re nearly ready to open the doors.

This gorgeous talented woman dropped in to @songlines_australia today to choose her #frockon fabrics. Marcia of @blackcatcouturent left holding her Mitjili Napurrula #handprinted Tangerine #silk like a bunch of flowers. 💐💐She goes back to remote teaching in Gunbalanya in Arnhem Land tomorrow.

Was such a delight to see her after 2 long years. We collaborated twice on the @injalakarts @darwinartfair Country to Couture parade in 2017 and 2018 and I was bowled over by her outstanding sense of colour and design plus her respect for the designs and talent of the artists.

Photos of the new @ikuntjiartists #handprintedfabric will be sent to other participants soon. Sorry, just trying to get this wee shop open.

Some of the limited edition fabrics will be available exclusively through Songlines in Darwin.

This may not look like much but it’s a major milestone. Barcodes!! 💪Ready to stick on things. The tired smile through slightly gritted teeth 😬hints at the long days wrangling with a Point of Sale system that’s much more sophisticated than the hopeful operator. Plus hours and hours of data entry. We’re setting it up at @songlines_australia

If you want/need to track consignment stock (which is a major part of an art related business) having a good system is gold. Too often I’ve been on the other side working for art centres and having stock go AWOL after consigning it. Or waiting too long for sales reports (and payments). But the data entry is super time consuming with so many individual items to be put into inventory. We used this before and it worked well.

It’s slowed us down but will be worth it.

We were thrilled to see what a clever Darwin dressmaker and client could do with Mavis Nampitjinpa Marks’ Women’s Business fabric design.
Mavis is from Ikuntji Artists in Haasts Bluff in Central Australia. @ikuntjiartists go from strength to strength. In partnership with @pubtextiles they now have a stunning range of fabrics. This is #handprinted on Tencel linen.

Thanks for the pic @deborahdinatale - you look gorgeous 😍 and great work @hello_chook 👏

We are struggling to find the time to get them all online!! 😳 They are currently being organised on display for @songlines_australia So proud to be exclusive stockists for their first ever silks.

Caught this pic of early bird shoppers who snuck in before we are open. John and Anne couldn’t resist this hand printed fabric from @bulabulaarts . (Yes, I am teasing you John.) It’s Warrnyu (Flying Fox) design by the late, great artist Roy Burnyila, a Ganalbingu man from Ramingining. 🖤 Behind them is a superb Pandanus mat crafted by Mary Dhapalany, also from @bulabulaarts

Anne was the Director of Framed Gallery in Darwin for 33 years that operated from this same site. Her Gallery was a must-visit destination and she presented dozens of outstanding exhibitions and supported hundreds of artists and craftspeople from around Australia.

Our fabrics are #handprinted in Australia.
This one was printed by @pubtextiles

These shoppers also happen to be the landlords and patrons of @songlines_australia . We are very grateful to have this opportunity to continue to share outstanding artworks from around Australia, including a number from their collection.

Like all of us I scroll through Instagram. I did a double take on this sweet dress - yes, that is Yingarna (Creation Mother) - a collaborative design by three ladies from @injalakarts 🌟Here it’s a really subtle tonal print so the design doesn’t jump out at you. The ladies based it on a tiny yet superb rock art painting on Injalak Hill where the Creation Being is shown with all her dilly bags full of life (people, plants, animals) that she carried on her head then placed in the landscape.

Always love seeing designers/dressmakers treating the fabrics and designs with such respect 🙌 Looking forward to sharing lots of fabulous fabrics with you in our Etsy shop (link in bio) and at @songlines_australia in Darwin.

Jude White facilitated 10 design workshops over 6 years (2013-18) at Injalak Arts focusing on women. The result was 12 designs that have gone on to become absolute favourites.
