Jodie’s journey is deeply personal—after becoming a victim of identity fraud she faced a significant challenge that pushed her to reassess her future.

Turning to sewing became both a creative outlet and a recovery journey, helping her rebuild with resilience and purpose.

Since taking over Queen of Fabric from Emma Newman, Jodie has taken on the stock of seven more much-loved Australian fabric shops: Jaimon, Perth Fabrics by Deb, Snugglelyn Quilts, The Fabric Nook, The Quilters Patch, That Crafty Place and Passion Patchwork. Many are the last bolts, so when it’s gone, it’s gone.
