: June 2021

  • Hello, it is has been good to have past customers come to visit me at the Market. It is always good to be able to talk with you and of course show you what I might have that might be new to you.

    I generally end my market season at Queens Birthday weekend, but this year it has been so mild that I have continued and will be there until Saturday 10 July, then I will take the next couple of months off and will return on Saturday 2 October.

    I will take the time to design some new items as some of the favourite fabrics have been discontinued and of course I need to increase my stock for my Summer Season and the season for gift giving - birthdays, Christmas, Visitor gift and of course gifts for yourself and your own home. All my items are as light-weight as I can make them as we all know that the cost of postage is expensive.

    So, I will look forward to seeing you sometime till 10 July or from 2 October onwards. I will be, as usual, in my corner in the Old Dairy Factory at the Matakana Market.
    All the best
    Susan

Welcome to the Greenleas Handcrafts website.

 I sell only from the Matakana Market or directly from home - see the Contact Us page for details.

 All items are made by me in my workroom in Snells Beach from very good quality cotton.

The Art Quilts are original one-off pieces. They are sometimes appliqued, sometimes they are collage with beading, painting, or  layered fabrics. Every one is unique and has a sleeve at the back for the insertion of a rod for hanging.

 The Children's Play Quilts are also individual and colourful made from hardwearing cotton. They are all fully  machine washable.

Kiwiana tableware (table mats and table runners) and wallhangings are attractive, lightweight but hardwearing.

I look forward to seeing you at the Old Dairy Factory, Matakana Market .
