Welcome!

Hi everyone,

Happy Tuesday! We hope everyone is having a great day. We are getting closer to the holidays, and we are soo excited!! We continued the spirit today by having our gift exchange in the Camelot Design Studio. We also made our very own color-taped Christmas tree to put the presents under – definitely feeling festive here, we’d say! To keep the holiday cheer rolling, we’re also hosting two holiday giveaways on our Facebook and Instagram…AND All Free Sewing is giving away our Spectrum FQB today for their #12DaysofXmas!

It’s time for this week’s How To’s Day! Just in time for the holiday season, we are sharing our DIY Holiday Cards Tutorial today. We love receiving cards from our loved ones, and handmade ones are just the icing on the cupcake! We love handmade cards because they are more sentimental and personal, and are a way for you to have fun and create.

Our DIY Holiday Cards use our Ad-Fab™ to create decals that jazz up blank greeting cards, and with our Hot Chocolate Ad-Fab™, our cards are fabulously festive! We offer two designs, our Tree & Ornament Card and our Menorah Card, so the choice is yours! Then, add your personality to each card with your own accent designs. Get creating, get crafting, and get festive!!

Hi everyone,

Happy Friday! We hope you have been enjoying your week – it’s almost the weekend!! With our winter wonderland, we’re thinking of staying indoors with a good book and some hot cider by the fireplace this weekend. Ahh, bliss. We’ve been super into the holiday spirit, and are having a cookie exchange at the office today – sugar cookies, toffee & white chocolate cookies, ginger cookies,…oh yum! :)

It’s time for this week’s Fan Friday! Today we are featuring some wonderful Star Wars pouches by Jolene Ko that we found on Instagram, and just had to share. Jolene loves to sew and create, and chooses fabric collections that are cool, unique, and on the quirky side. She shares her current creations on her Instagram, as well as her other social media sites, and is in the processing of developing her own products. We saw this zipper pouch (seen below) that Jolene tweaked from this tutorial, and thinks it is awesome!

Jolene chose our Angry Birds Star Wars and Star Wars Collections to create her zipper pouches, and we adore the designs that she chose. The pouch would be the perfect thing to organize a larger handbag, keep your receipts together, or for keeping your tablet safe. It would also make for a great gift! Such lovely pouches, Jolene!! :)

Thank you so much for tagging us on Instagram, Jolene! You can follow her on Facebook Page to get updates of her new ventures, as well as on Pinterest and her blog. Have a great weekend, everyone!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Tuesday! We hope you are all having a great day – it’s National Pastry Day…which means we should probably get ourselves some yummy treats. I mean, it’s a national holiday…so we have to, right? ;) We’ll take an apple and cheese turnover, with extra whipped cream please!

Time for this week’s How To’s Day! Today we are featuring a super stylish tutorial for our Twin Pillows. Changing up your pillows, whether it be your couch or bed pillows, are one of the easiest and least expensive ways to add some new flair to a space. We love rotating pillows for the different seasons and holidays, as it gives us a fun opportunity to decorate often, while being budget-friendly. Making your own pillows also allows you to choose the designs and colors you want so that the decor you’ve envisioned can come to life…

We adore our Twin Pillows Tutorial because they are unique, modern, and you create (for those who like quicker projects) two pillows from one tutorial. We also provide two different versions in the tutorial, so you can mix it up and have an array of beautiful pillows for your home! We love it with our Opposites Attract by Jackie McFee collection, because the white and black prints can be incorporated into just about any decor.
