Hi everyone,

 

 

 

 

Happy Tuesday! I hope you are having a lovely day. Today is Shark Awareness Day! Cool shark fact of the day? Sharks’ ears are located inside of their heads, and can hear up to 3000 feet away!! Wow. They’ve definitely got supreme hearing skills!

 

On to our How To’s Day! Today we are featuring our High Tide Pillow by Stephanie Palmer of Late Night Quilter. The High Tide pillow is a fun design, comprised of different sized triangles and trapezoids. Together they create an awesome, scrappy and whimsy feel. This larger, 20″ x 20″ sized pillow is perfect as an accent pillow for a serene living room space, or to jazz up some plain outdoor wicker chairs. We chose to feature this pillow with our London Fog collection, and had fun mixing the different teal & grey prints together. The finished pillow is fun, but would still fit perfectly into a contemporary space.

Hi everyone,

 

 

 

 

Happy Monday! How was everyone’s weekend? It was sooo hot and humid here, but oh-so nice. It was the perfect weekend for a bit of swimming, and then staying indoors with the AC ;)

 

Let’s start off our week with our Moody Monday! Today we are featuring our A Marsala Moment by Jack!e McFee for Camelot Fabrics. A Marsala Moment is our luxurious and warm collection of blue, marsala, and metallic copper. From the gorgeous sheen of the copper to the bold hue of Pantone’s color of the year, A Marsala Moment is one stylish collection. Amp up the luxe factor of any interior space with some AMM accessories – a copper & marsala throw quilt, some pillows, and some tabbed curtains! As well, get ready for a night on the town. Throw on your favorite LBD, and add a AMM clutch for a pop of color!

Marco de Vincenzo‘s Spring 2014 Collection was moody and unique. From embroidery decals to perforated jackets, there were lots of fun details in this collection. The colors were very much fall-inspired: dark emerald, navy, and marsala were the star hues, in contrasting textures and fabrications. We loved the asian-inspired influence of his collection, with a modern twist. We especially adored this shift dress, which was reminiscent of our A Marsala Moment collection. So on-trend and gorgeous!

 

I hope you have been inspired by today’s Moody Monday! I’d love to know what summer trends or colors you are excited about trying. Have a fantastic day!

 

 

 

Happy Sewing!

Along with launching our Summer 2015 collections, we’ve also launched a couple in our double gauze with Nordic, Ethereal, and The Beach House Collection. Double gauze is our newest, lightweight fabric that is exceptionally soft and flowy. Ethereal, our fluttery and floral collection, would make a lovely, comfy infinity scarf. Look fabulous heading to the beach in our stylish, pom-pom beach cover-up in our The Beach House Collection. And once you’ve had some fun in the sun, throw on a comfy maxi skirt and a Nordic crop top – and you’ll be ready for a casual dinner!

Hi everyone,

 

 

 

 

Happy Friday! I hope you all are having a fantastic day!! We’ve been posting our Summer 2015 collections this week, and we’d love to know which ones are your favorite!

 

Ending another wonderful week with our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring some really awesome washable grocery bags that Karin, of Leigh Laurel Studios, made. Using the Grocery Bag pattern from Michelle Patterns, Karin said that the bags were so fun & easy to make…that she made 7 of them! The bags are lined, reversible, and washable so they are super convenient and durable to use for all of your groceries.

She chose to use our Fruit Stand by Jane Farnham collection, which is the perfect collection for a bag to take to the farmer’s market! She mixed up the prints, which made for some super fun totes – say goodbye to your plain canvas totes, when you can have one with fruits on it! ;)

It’s time for our final collection launch for Summer 2015! We hope you have enjoyed hanging out with us, and now are as obsessed with our collections as we are. Beach House Collection by Jack!e McFee is our absolutely gorgeous and soothing ocean-inspired collection of sea shells, star fish, and sea glass. As well, it is a combination of two equally gorgeous colorways: the Coral Edition and the Tide Edition. The Coral Edition features feminine hues of coral and pinks that, together, create a tropical feel. The Tide Edition brings you the calming blues and greens that are inspired by the ocean. Beautiful and unique in their own ways, but both will whisk you away to a beach paradise.

One thing we love about the beach is getting all of your close friends together for a day out in the sun. Wear your bright, new bathing suit, bring the sunscreen, and get ready for a full day of fun and laughter! After a great day out, head home for a BBQ. Our Venn Placemats are a lovely way to add some more color to your table, especially in the coral edition of the Beach House Collection.

If you are more inspired by the serenity of the beach, we love the idea of an ocean-inspired room. Our Color Block Pillow and Whimsical Quilt, in the tide edition of the Beach House Collection, are the perfect additions. Cozy up with a good book and you will feel like you are at the beach.
