Hi everyone,
Happy Tuesday! I hope everyone had a relaxing, long weekend. Did anyone work on any fun new (or WIP) projects?
It’s time for our How To’s Day! Today we are sharing one of our free quilt patterns, our Farm Stand Quilt by Anne Sullivan of Play Crafts. Farm Stand is a very cool and clean quilt pattern, featuring “columns” of fabric separated by a solid. We chose to have our Star Wars: The Force Awakens collection made up in this quilt, and absolutely adore the linear, ombred effect created with the many, different designs. Melissa Dunworth of Sew Bitter Sweet Designs quilted the quilt for us, and are obsessed with her quilt work! Thanks, Melissa… SOO much!

Hi everyone,
Happy Tuesday! I hope everyone is having a wonderful First of September!! It’s also the last day to enter our Flannel FQB Giveaway, so if you haven’t yet, gogogo and enter!
Let’s start off the day with our How To’s Day! Today we are featuring our Tumbling Jewels Quilt by The Cloth Parcel, the wonderful mother-daughter design team. The Tumbling Jewels Quilt is a gorgeous quilt design, composed of lots of different sized triangles and squares to create a “jeweled” effect. We love the randomness of how the shapes are placed, but together, create a super cool and neat pattern. We have fun playing around with this quilt pattern, and loved how it turned out with our Nordic Collection. The grey tones, muted pink, and black prints look so good together in this quilt.

Hi everyone,
Happy Tuesday! I hope you all are having a lovely day… and today is National Banana Split Day, everyone. Oh, that sounds so appeeling right now haha!
Time for our How To’s Day! Today we are featuring our Diamonds Quilt by Nikki Maroon of The Girl Who Quilts. Our Diamonds Quilt is one of our beloved favorites. Bordered octagon shapes are blocked together in rows to create a modern quilt design. As well, there is an ombre effect created with different fabric patterns which is a simple, but fun detail. We chose to highlight our Little Bird by Camelot Design Studio collection, with its soft pink, mint, and grey hues. The gentle gradient makes for a gorgeous, showstopping bed or wall quilt!

Hi everyone,
Happy Tuesday! I hope you all are having a fantastic, National Soft Ice Cream Day! Get yourself a delicious chocolate or vanilla soft serve (we love the duo kind!), kick back and relax, and enjoy today!
On to our How To’s Day! Today we are featuring our Baby Blocks Quilt by Larene Smith of The Quilted Button. Our Baby Blocks Quilt is a lovely block-by-block pattern of squares that create a clean and contemporary design, perfect for a modern nursery. The different “squares” allow for you to have fun with different fabric prints, to create visual interest. We chose to feature our feminine Emilia Collection, and chose like patterns in a diagonal design. The border is our darker medallion print, which gives the overall quilt a nice warmth.
Such a gorgeous, feminine quilt that would be a perfect gift for a mama-to-be! Want to make your own Baby Blocks Quilt? Click MORE for the full tutorial.

Hi everyone,
Happy Tuesday! I hope you all are having a great day so far. If there’s a food holiday, you know we’re going to share about it. Today happens to be National Chocolate Chip Day. Well I guess we’ll have to eat some chocolate chip cookies then, in doing our part to celebrate the day ;)
Time for this week’s How To’s Day! Today we are sharing a beautiful tutorial for our Box Trot Quilt, designed by the incredibly talented Chris Hoover of Whirligig Designs. The box-like pieces in our Box Trot Quilt are perfect for highlighting a multitude of different fabric patterns, overall giving a very fun and whimsical look. Each “box” is bordered, which we chose to keep neutral and uniform with the background in the quilt below. We chose to feature our Beach House by Jack!e McFee collection, mixing the coral and tide colorways for a relaxing ocean feel. We love how the bright colors pop against the white background; such a modern and feminine quilt!
