Australian Smocking

August 20th, 2009

This magazine is a one-of-a-kind, it has the most unique and beautiful patterns for smocking and embroidery. In my opinion Australian Smocking & Embroidery is the best smocking and embroidery magazine that is available. The projects and photography are gorgeous and patterns are included for each project.

The magazine caters mainly to children's clothing with a variety of styles and sizes. Just taking a look at Amazon's page that features Australian Smocking & Embroidery, you will see that these magazines become valuable over time. Out of print issues often double or triple in value. This magazine is a sought resource after  for those who love to smock and create heirloom clothing for children. Each issue includes a step by step lesson of a technique used in a project. You'll also find smocking and embroidery plates inside. The magazine offers you the option of ordering  the kit to make the project from Country Bumpkin in Australia.

"Each issue includes full-size patterns and gives complete instructions on every detail. This magazine has inspired me to create many beautiful gowns that I know will become family heirlooms.There is nothing else like it. It has become a must for my sewing library." from Amazon review comments.

Buying back issues can be quite expensive. I have seen them on Amazon for over $50. Just recently, I came across a nice selection of Australian Smocking and Embroidery Magazine back issues on eBay. Generally, the prices were much lower than what I saw on Amazon. I am sure that this can vary, but I am hoping that eBay with continue to have them for a reasonable price.

One reviewer said, "Australian Smocking & Embroidery" is by far, the best of the smocking/embroidery magazines that are available today. Not only are the projects and pictures glorious, but the patterns are included with each project. Most issues offer a variety of sizes and styles for using smocking, but focus mainly on children's clothing. These magazines become valuable after time, as some issues as they are out of print, will double and triple in value. This is a much sought after magazine in the finer cloth/heirloom shops. Inside each issue, there will be a step by step lesson of a technique used in a project. "

Just listed:

Will'Beth Baptismal Gown

A  lovely Will'beth gown and bonnet set of solid white with embroidered flowers and lace accents has just been put up for auction. The new with tags Will'Beth dress has a lace trimmed collar and sleeves and comes with a matching bonnet. As you can see the sleeves are sheer (see picture at bottom of post for more detail) and so is the overlay of the dress. The smocking is gorgeous with embroidery with pearl accents which can also be found on the bonnet .

The dress closes in the back with three little buttons and a pretty sheer bow. This is perfect for baby's Christening, Baptism, Baby Dedication or first portraits. The dress comes in size 0 and will likely be a treasure passed down in a family.
