Hi and thank you for being here!

Hello, my name is Sue and I live in Northern NSW, Australia. 

I own and operate Scarlet Begonias Retro, and I work out of my studio and showroom in Byron Bay Industrial Estate. 

A couple of years ago I was extremely lucky to meet somebody who had purchased a 5 level  warehouse in Melbourne, that was filled to the brim with vintage fabrics.

They were still in their original packaging, untouched for
over 50 years and waiting patiently to go to new loving homes such as
mine! 

This was completely a fantasy of mine to come true, and not
likely to open again, so  of course I bought up as much as I possibly
could!

This is the main fabric i use for my creations. 

I can guarantee you I will make every order for my beautiful customers  with my own hands, with love from me to you.
