Fashion fabric launch

The recent launch of Devonstone fashion fabrics was a totally local affair. Around 50 people wearing gaily coloured outfits gathered in the garden of the Meadow Bake Shop Yandina, to support the launch of the new Devonstone Summer Abroad range of fabrics by designer Lindsey Rae.

The launch was sponsored by Two Green Zebras, a Yandina company which has represented local artists and designers at home and overseas for 12 years. Their aim is to inspire creativity while aligning with the values of a sustainable world.

Originally from Texas USA, Lindsey and her family now live on the Sunshine Coast where she creates colour-popping motifs on predominantly natural fabrics, as well as designing paper patterns and running sewing classes.

Lindsey’s fabrics are eagerly sought after and are available at most local quality sewing outlets to meet the demands of quilters and home sewers whose numbers on the coast are steadily increasing. Her cheerful enthusiasm is reflected in her bold use of colour. Lindsey said, “I hope that my new Summer Abroad range makes every day feel like your own European holiday.”
