Hi everyone,
Happy Friday! How is everyone doing? It’s just about the weekend, the last weekend of Summer. And it’s supposed to be a gorgeous one here, so we’re excited to blissfully enjoy it!
Ending another wonderful week with our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring an adorable ensemble of tunics by Lassie Girl, with our Paradise by Alisse Courter Collection. Lassie Girl is an Etsy Shop started by Ashley Yost. She creates and sews “fun & stylish clothing for the modern child” – including pinafores, dresses, and headbands! Her selection of fabrics are bright, modern, and charming and each piece is handmade with love.
One of her recent Fall additions is a uber-cute Pocket Bow Dress with our Paradise Collection, which features a side pocket and bow. She also designed a tunic (coming soon to her shop!) with a criss-cross back which would be the perfect top for a stylish girl! We want both for our (future) little ones hehe ;)
Thank you for the fabric love, Ashley! We are SO thrilled that you adore our Paradise collection as much as we do. Your designs are absolutely precious, and we cannot wait to see what else is in store! You can check out more on the Lassie Girl Etsy Shop, Instagram, and Facebook Page. Have an amazing weekend!
Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,
Happy Friday! I hope you all are having a fantastic day!! There is still time to enter our Star Wars: The Force Awakens Giveaway if you haven’t yet.
Ending our week with our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring a beautiful hexagon quilt by Annika, with our Gypsy Lane by Jane Farnham Collection. Annika created this quilt without a pattern – what a brave soul she is! She had a ton of fun making the hexagons and then piecing the quilt together, having the element of surprise ahead of her. But in the end, everything came out wonderfully and Annika loves her new quilt… which also happens to be her first one! We are sooo impressed. She chose our Gypsy Lane collection, alternating the different prints to create a cool honeycomb look!
What a lovely quilt, Annika! We can’t believe this is your first quilt either, and that you did it freehand. Amazing job!! And thank you for Gypsy Lane fabric love. Have an amazing weekend!
Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,
Happy Friday! And Happy #ForceFriday! It has been all Star Wars, all day loooong on our blog – including our exciting launch of our Star Wars: The Force Awakens collection.
Ending our week with our Fan Friday, with one of the coolest Star Wars ensembles we’ve ever seen! Shawnee of thedisneyworldgirl is a, hence her Instagram handle hehe, huge fan of Disney. Her Instagram account is probably the next best thing to actually being at the parks!! On her account, she shares her Disney World adventures, and also ventures to many of the yearly conventions.
When we saw the dress she had created with our Star Wars fabric, we were so impressed!!! She used a vintage pattern to make the dress, and even sewed a matching set of Minnie ears! To complete the look, she wore Star Wars tennis shoes with fun, blue laces. So adorable!! We are so in love with her outfit – we can definitely call her a true Star Wars fan!
You’re rocking it, Shawnee!! Thank you for the fabric love – we are so happy you love our Star Wars fabric. If you are a huge Disney fan too, be sure to check out Shawnee’s Instagram; it’s filled with lots of magical and nostalgic posts. Have an awesome weekend, everyone!

Hi everyone,
Happy Friday! I hope you all are having a lovely day. Have you entered our Flannel FQB Giveaway? Be sure to enter here – it’s soft and cozy and sweet!
Ending our week with our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring a gorgeous quilt, sewn and quilted by Jana Hudspeth. She chose Thimble Blossom‘s Niner Pattern, and our Paradise collection to create a standout quilt for the Quilts Etc open house in September. She decided to keep things clean, choosing a different print for each “block” and keeping the quilt modern with a white background. Absolutely LOVE how it turned out, with our Paradise collection giving the quilt a feminine and chic flair.
Such a gorgeous quilt, Jana! Thank you for the fabric love, and for tagging us on Instagram. We hope everyone adores this quilt as much as we do! Have a fantastic weekend, everyone!
Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,
Happy Friday! I hope you all had a lovely week – and are ready for some fun this weekend!!
Ending a great week with our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring a gorgeous bag sewn by Valerie Higgins of Eldra Ann Designs. Valerie chose Swoon Sewing Pattern‘s Vivian Traveler Diaper Bag pattern to create this wonderful bag for a friend. She included the additional pockets and one long exterior pocket for a diaper changing pad. She decided to feature our Gray Matters by Jack!e McFee collection, with its vibrant yellow and grey tones, to create a modern and feminine diaper bag. Valerie also mentioned that she “loved making this bag, mostly because [she] never got tired of looking at these beautiful fabrics”. Aww, thanks Valerie!!
Ohhhhhh, the inside lining is just as pretty and fun!!
Thank you, Valerie, for the fabric love. We are also big fans of Swoon Sewing Patterns, so it was great to see our Gray Matters made into one of her bags. We hope your friend enjoys her new bag! You can find more from Valerie on Facebook, Instagram, and at her Etsy Shop. Have a gooooooood weekend, everyone!
Happy Sewing!
