A Love Letter to the Western Australian Bush: Sunday Social Club Collection

Inspired by life in regional Kalgoorlie

This collection is inspired by my time living in regional Kalgoorlie, Western Australia. It’s where our daughter was born, and as a new mum of two little ones, I found not only a supportive community but also a creative home.

But what really captured my heart was the landscape itself — the rich red dirt, the towering gums, and the vibrant native birds that filled each morning with cheerful chatter and colour.

 

 

A celebration of birdlife and botanicals

Sunday Social Club is rooted in this unique environment. It celebrates the lively birdlife, tangled native botanicals, and the gentle geometry of gumnut branches that made Kalgoorlie so special to me.

Australian Bird and Botanical Patterns from the West Australian Bush by surface pattern designer Laura Hamzic - Sunday Social Club, Bush bLooms, Chat Reflections, Gumnut Weave

Each pattern holds a little piece of those wild, joyful mornings and the gentle rhythm of life in the Western Australian bush.



Hand-painted and full of warmth

Like much of my work, these designs were lovingly hand-painted. The slightly imperfect lines and textured details echo the organic energy of the bush.

A reminder of how nature’s beauty is rarely perfect but always full of life. 

 

I hope this collection brings a little of that warmth, wonder, and wildness into your own creative journey.
