I was contacted by Haylee and Marcia (of Red Brick Gallery fame) a while ago telling me about their recently purchased fixer-upper with rooms of vintage lino. So I packed up the boys and headed up to Ballarat.
I helped pull up pieces from each room and now the Ballarat lino is living in my studio waiting be cleaned and fashioned into new creations. Thanks for the invite ladies.
A trip to Ballarat is not complete with out a visit to Morgan Will's new shop "The Crafty Squirrel".
Morgan had a box of fantastic red lino offcuts for me from her new floor . In fact I saw a red theme emerging when I looked at my little stash of goodies from the Crafty Squirrel and the Red Brick Gallery. ![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwWaPRdSKzHltd7ctEGo2TRRHvNb52E07gMOVb5H_Q5MZtUxzrLzMZ9Z0dj2YlcbBJ0HS8wAEpzd5s5xsbWXZTadEaTryg0LnFIMRjfPHzejHSMCFX_4iBWQVsTzkJPdcBOm_L4ZyplSk/s400/My+Documents.jpg)
