Oh my goodness Corrine what a wonderful shopping spree you've been on! Love the old buildings, they do make beautiful quilt shops don't they. Thank you for sharing your trip with us 😊

You are so inspiring, these videos give me confidence to create my own projects,, thanks for sharing
Thank you for this video, it popped up on my feed today, very inspiring. Such beautiful things 😍
You are so welcome!
Next week I am off to visit the Gippsland Art Gallery in Sale, to see Annemieke Mein, A Life’s work - A Retrospective. I have enjoyed her work for many years. IBallarat looks like a great place to put on my list to visit. Thank you.
Oh great.. try and visit those shops..
Thanks for sharing your wonderful shopping trips! I loved the rabbit table runner and was able to find one for my Easter table and some placemats to match online!
Wonderful!
Talk about 'Mind Boggling' !! Wow... What a fantastic town to visit & with all those heritage buildings.. what a bonus ❤
It really is!
Ballarat must be housing a lot of quilters, so many quiltshops😍😍💝
Thanks for sharing the photos. We had a great time with you guys. ❤️❤️
What a marvelous trip. You saw amazing things. Thank you so much for filming for us. I'm in the US and never will be able see such glorious things. 😊
You are so welcome!
The original building that Gail had burned down. This is what they got built to replace it. I know Gail and all the ladies that work there. Fantastic place you need to do several walk throughs
What an enjoyable video. I also stopped and started again to check out the websites. Looking forward to part 2
Wow, what a lovely haul you managed to buy. Your videos will help Ballarat’s tourism rise with all the stores visitors will want to visit and buy their own goodies. Well worth a trip there.
Oh my, I really loved Ballarat, and Susanna's retreat was amazing!!!
It's a whole year to wait to do it again 😢.
Love all your goodies and treasures 🥰
Hope you feel better soon ❤
Can't wait!
Lots of gorgeous goodies. ❤
Nice haul...love all the places you visited..my old haunts...love that crochet lady....follow her on the socials...
Thank you for showing us around the gorgeous craft stores in Ballarat. I think I need to spend a few days there instead of always driving through. Gorgeous haul. ❤️🌺
Have fun!
Thank you Corrine for your video and sharing your trip with us. I am sorry you have caught a bug, that's all you needed. Hopefully you are on the mend. How lovely to have so many beautiful shops to visit. We have lost so many here in the UK it is sad and online whilst a blessing does not make up for the touchy/feely effect. I hope you took an empty suitcase with you😂. Gosh all that Liberty, I once went into the store in London which is the only other place I have seen that amount of fabric in one place. I am more a French General girl, more my colour way. Looking forward to part 2.
I’m pleased you enjoyed the video!
Thanks for sharing our wonderful quilt and craft stores here in Ballarat! Gayles is my local and yes I spend more than what i went in for they are extremely helpful, and Mill Rose is a fantastic store full of color but can be overwhelming and the crafty squiral is such a great store ful of chilhood memories.
Oh hello.. lucky girls living in that neck of the woods! Thanks for joining me!
What a wonderful trip. Thanks so much for sharing your purchases are beautiful. I enjoy your videos so much. Hope you feel better soon.
Thanks, Corrine! It was as if I was there visiting those towns and wonderful shops!❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video, thank you for sharing your shopping experiences. Lovely old buildings, but my goodness what they had inside was glorious!
Glad you enjoyed it
Looks like lots of wonderful shopping - glad you enjoyed Ballarat and surrounds. Hope the cold improves soon. Cheers, Christine 💙🧵🪡
Visiting Gail’s shop must have made you think you’d died and gone to heaven! What a beautiful place. And then Mill Rose…wow!
Oh so true
So loved your shopping trip and everything you purchased. I’d love to go on a retreat with like-minded ladies. It’s hard not to go crazy when you find gorgeous items. This reminds me to get out the French General instead of hoarding. The books are amazing, those projects look wonderful. I so enjoyed looking at what the quilt shops ad to offer. Tku from the U.K.
You are very welcome.. thanks for joining me!
Oh thank you so much.
I have watched a few of your videos & love them.
But this video popped up in my feed & had to watch it as I love in Mount Helen in Ballarat.
Relocated from Sydney a few years ago but haven't found any craft shops & still haven't travelled far from home as I am still getting used to living in a townhouse & different state.
So thank you so very much.
I have driven by Gail's in Sebestapool but never driven down the road even though there is a big sign showing the way.
I keep thinking I will go down but haven't but after this video I will be going.
So yes please post more of your trip as it has helped me a lot to find out where I can go to find what I need.
As well as quilt classes.
So again thank you very much xxx❤
Oh lovely.. say hello to Gail’s for me! Look for part 2..
What a great tour for us to share! I live in the US and am envious of those shops in Balllarat. I especially liked the Japanese fabric bundle you bought, just beautiful.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love this video but pity you didn't mention that Mill Rose and Chrissie's Timeless Treasures are actually locate in my town of Ballan, which is about 20minutes from Ballarat.
What a perfect trip…these stores are fantastic !
The best!
That was lots of fun shopping and product research for us all.
It really is!
Oh wow! I love those boutiques! Thanks for sharing the nice views and products :)
You are so welcome
Sounds like you need to re-book that trip to Japan that covid canceled! Beautiful shots of the town, thanks for taking the time to share.
I hope to one day soon
Bakery hill is where we had our restaurant first directly across the road from Macca's then next door to it with the gorgeous old Rotunda out the front. And also the spot where the Eureka Stockade took place. Australias only civil war.
Maldon was one of my favourite towns to go. Just beautiful shops there. Sooooo many more craft shops since I've been there in Ballarat. My kids used to go to Dana St primary School which looked like one of the buildings you showed. I think I heard it closed down as a school??? Which was very sad but the building was beautiful !!!
It's 24 years since I left. Wow!!! Time flies.
Really lovely tour of a gorgeous town. Thankyou ❤❤
Oh wow .. small world beautiful city
This was such an interesting video, Corrine! Ballarat looks like such a quaint and wonderful place to visit! Love all your purchases. TFS!
Thank you so much!
Oh wow you wouldn't be able to get me to leave Gail's store - heaven!
I love the old spindles (pirns) - I only found out what they were a few years ago when I discovered one of my 3x great grandmothers was a pirn winder for her husband (my 3x gr grandfather) who was a cotton loom weaver. I was very lucky to find a local lady (Adelaide) selling a bag full of old pirns/spindles - some that still had their thread on them. Your video has me thinking that a Ballarat trip could be in order in the next few months!
Oh lovely.. go for a drive! Beautiful part of our country! Treasure to be found!!
Wow what an amazing place to visit and shop!
Yes it was!
Amazing those shops on my bucket list
Thanks for sharing, Corrine! I'm sad you got sick traveling. It happens to me all the time when I fly. I blame it on the cabin air in the planes.
I can't wait to see what you do with those spindles! I bought a pile of them at a flea market years ago and have never been able to think of how to use them!
Your French Chocolate tin definitely had chocolates in it. Usually look like chocolate leaves or buttons. I have two similar
tins that included the chocolates. What a fabulous range of goodies that you purchased. I too have a weakness for linens and Japanese woven fabrics.
lol .. I must have eaten then! Lol
The wood spindles from Christie’s Timeless Treasures are bobbins that hold thread, you put the bobbin that filled with thread in a shuttle used for weaving; the shuttle goes back and forth and the bobbin holds the thread.
Ok.. they will be very handy!
That shop looks amazing!
Hi, what a candy store of goodies!!! Oh 😋😋 yummy
The best candy!
And in tomorrow’s video do we see where you bought your extra case to take all your purchases back home in?😂 Loved, loved, loved seeing these lovely shops and what you bought. I would not have been able to restrain myself. Thanks for filming everything and I hope you feel better soon.
Not far from the truth!
Lucky you!! ❤
Wow … TFS Corrine xxx
Shelly Husband is from Bendigo and she has numerous crochet books. She is amazing. She used to do workshops in the past but not sure about these days. Her patterns are amazing!
Oh true .. I can’t wait to make it!
Oh yes I saw in her book she thanked Bendigo Woollen Mills for supplying the yarns!
Oh I love liberty fabrics
Fabulous Video 😍
I’m going to Japan in November 🙌🏼🙌🏼 so excited……
Oh lucky girl!
OMG I just got lost in this video. I feel like I know you.
lol.. shopping together!

Looks like you had a great time. Can you please give a bit of info about the retreat? Who runs it, where does it take place, is it open to anyone or just your special group? Thanks
That retreat was run be Susanna from Vintage Blend Studios.. that’s also the name of her ytube channel.. it is open to anyone. Susanna is playing another on next year March. Check out her channel.

Are your elongated hexagon papers the same as what Kate (from the LHH) is using for Emil’s quilt?
I wished I could find a really good price not expensive vintage second hand around my area
It’s can be the same here too.. you need to know your prices.
Please send the name and number of the burgandy flower trim appliques you bought from Gayle. Her site doesn't show pix of all of her trims.
It doesn’t have details.. call me and tell her it’s the velvet rose trim. The roses are the size of a 50cent piece. She will know there is only one. She can also watch my video if she is unsure.
Elongated hexagon
Wow what a great time you wld of had the little mouse I've bought that one I buy little things like that to put on my grandchildren shelves does the owner of The Crafty Squirrel make them?x
I’m really not sure actually! Didn’t think to ask!
Is there a pattern for your darling needle case with the bag in the middle? Thank you for the shopping trip video. Dona in Oregon USA
