Funky Needlework

Funkyneedlework is a company dedicated to providing quality, vibrant, valuable and fun products and services to all our customers. We sell fabric, teach sewing and design quilts and textile art for your enjoyment. Funkyneedlework, as a business, sparked into being in 2009 when founder, Josie Dunne, decided to concentrate on sharing her passion for textiles with others. Having been inspired by generations of creative women whose values can be best summed up by the adage ‘There is shame in a hole but no shame in a patch’. She strives to pass on hints, tips and inspiration from these traditional skills to both experienced quilters and those new to the joys of sewing. We believe that your time spent on a project is valuable and so we only work with quality products. We love colour and experimenting and encourage others to do the same. We have evolved from making hand crafted products ourselves to providing the inspiration and ingredients for others to use and enjoy. We love our products because they give personal joy to the maker and then again in appreciating the finished item. We love fabric-collectors too and believe in the enjoyment of having and stroking a draw (or several) full of fabric. Sometimes the purpose of fabric can just be to bring a smile to your face when you look at it. New design has always been a part of our passion and now we have the opportunity to share these designs with a much wider creative family at Hochanda.
