It’s time for this week’s What We Love ♥ We also have some really exciting news!! We’ve expanded our design team, and want to officially introduce Ciana to the blog. We are so thrilled to have her join, and you’ll be hearing lots more – about her and us! – on the blog very soon. We have been inspired by beautiful colors and movement this week, from ethereal ballerinas dancing to fluttering, magnificent butterflies. So much delight to be found, in the movements around us. See what else we have been loving this week…  ♥

Hi everyone,

 

 

 

 

Happy Thursday! We hope you are having a terrific day so far. If you haven’t seen yet, we are hosting a new #Winsday on our Facebook Page. We are giving away an FQ bundle of our Scented fabrics, and want to know what your favorite scent is!

 

It’s Thankful Thursday time! Today we are featuring Crafts Direct – a fantastic craft store in Minnesota, that has been around since 1990 and growing! Crafts Direct is composed of distinct sections dedicated to all of your crafting needs, and when we say all, we mean it (haha). They have a quilt shop, floral shop, scrapbook shop, seasonal shop, wood & paint shop, and rubber stamps shop. Yup, they basically have it all – a place where the whole family can visit and find something they’ll enjoy! And that definitely makes sense, as family is super important to Crafts Direct – it’s a family-owned business that has grown from 15 to 120 employees.

 

And, once you’ve spent the day mesmerized by all the crafting deliciousness, they also have a coffee shop for a shopping break. Crafts Direct is also expanded to online, where they share unique projects and tutorials on their blog, featuring their favorite products. We absolutely love how dedicated and passionate Crafts Direct is, about their customers and products!

Crafts Direct created a couple of projects using our beloved ad-fab™ – our adhesive fabric, perfect for a bunch of awesome crafty projects! Crafts Direct shared some really fantastic ones, that we absolutely LOVE!! We wanted to share some of them with you, but there are lots more on their website and blog. All uber cute!!

Hi everyone,

 

 

 

 

Happy Tuesday! We hope you all are doing wonderfully today. It’s been absolutely beautiful outside today – a high of 6 °C (oh my!). Here’s hoping for a continuous uphill in temperature!

 

Time for this week’s How To’s Day! Today we are featuring our modern Slanted Wrap Wallet by Marion of Made by Marion. Our Slanted Wrap Wallet is a stunner, and features lovely binding details so you can choose different fabrics for each block. Our wrap wallet includes an attached loop, so it would also make for a great clutch, especially for a girl’s night out. Carry your essentials – cards, keys, phone, and lipgloss – and you are good to dance the night away! We chose to feature our Slanted Wrap Wallet in our London Fog Collection, and think it looks super sleek and fun!!

Hi everyone,

 

 

 

 

Happy Monday! We hope you are having a marvelous weekend. As well, in honor of International Women’s Day yesterday, here’s to all the strong and incredible women who follow us on the blog. “Behind every successful woman is herself”.

 

It’s time to start off this week with our Moody Monday! Today we are featuring our Heirloom Collection by our Camelot Design Studio. Heirloom is a rich, sophisticated collection of mustard, burgundy, and grey colorways in bold geometrics! As well, Heirloom is printed on 100% natural, unbleached cotton which makes it perfect for blending into home decor projects. We love the idea of an elegant pillow or quilt with our warm, fall-inspired tones.

Yeohlee’s Autumn 15/16 RTW Collection is everything we imagine a fall wardrobe to be inspired by. Dark and brooding in colors and silhouettes, all of the ensembles in this collection are soft and comfortable, while still being chic! Tweed, silk, and billowy chiffon fabrics give beautiful movement to each piece, which we absolutely adore! We especially love this print, which is reminiscent of our Heirloom Collection. You can also check out the full collection here!

 

 

Be sure to check out the full Heirloom Collection here! We’d love to know what you think of our stunning, unbleached collection. And with that, have a great day!!

 

 

 

 

Happy Sewing!
