    The story behind my design... 

    I first created a free phone wallpaper image similar to this called 'Lunga', as I sat reminiscing on my childhood. I transported myself back to cherished memories growing up with four living generations of family on Kalkadoon (Kalkatungu) Country. I remembered the good times, the sad times and the now distant times... 'Lunga' means cry or to cry in Kalkatungu language. In my mind, I envisioned my tears falling and gently hitting the dirt at my feet, sinking in to the dry earth beneath me. Two large drops would continue to form as tears fell thinking about my family, my ancestors and my home - my 'Stomping Ground'.


    The large concentric circles typically represent meeting places or waterholes - my interpretation is my tears are like waterholes. At times they may be muyuta (dry/dried up), much like the earth around them but when the kuu (rain) comes, the waterholes fill again but over time these will dry until the next big rain and so the cycle continues - much like emotions experienced throughout life or as we reflect on history and those who have passed.

    Absolutely stunning summer essential!

    I absolutely love my Stomping Ground throw (and matching tote!) I get plenty of compliments on it. It's so handy for beach days and picnics. It might sound silly, but having a throw blanket invites such a sense of community and closeness with your friends and family. Instead of sitting separately on towels at the beach, it creates closeness, memories and conversations I cherish. So versatile, easy to clean and store. I keep mine in my boot so I always have it ready. The macrame carrying strap is a must-have!

    Beautiful Throw!

    The perfect memorial gift for a very special family.
    Meaningful, gorgeous colours and design. Came beautifully packaged. Best of all was the service. I needed it quickly, so Steph sent it via express post at her expense and I received it in 2 days from Queensland to Melbourne. Her responsiveness, kindness and understanding were more than appreciated at a time of bereavement.
    Thank you Steph
