Hi everyone,
Happy Tuesday! I hope you all are having a fantastic day. The weather is absolutely gorgeous here this week, and we are loving it!
It’s time for this week’s How To’s Day! Today we are featuring our Quilt Bars quilt by Tammy Silvers of Tamarinis. Quilt Bars is a modern and clean quilt design of layered rectangles to create a “multiplying” illusion of symmetrical space. It’s a great pattern for featuring a multitude of different fabric designs, because of the separating blocks. We chose to feature our Disney Princess collection with this quilt, and adore how the pink hues blend together. This would be such a sweet quilt for a little princess-in-training, tucked in and ready to dream about fairytales!

Hi everyone,
Happy Monday!! I hope you all have a super fun Halloween weekend!! We may or may not still have candy leftovers from Friday that we are still munching on… ;)
It’s time for our Moody Monday! Today we are featuring our Enchanted by Alisse Courter collection. Enchanted is a gorgeous and moody collection of rustic orange, purple and mustard tones to create lots and lots of enchanting florals. This collection reminds us of a scenic drive while the trees have been ignited by autumn’s colors. A cozy and beautiful collection, a perfect backdrop for all your cooler weather projects.
Andrew Gn’s RTW Spring 2016 collection was moody, broody, and fabulously decorated with lots of floral prints. Colors of nature – greens, blues, vibrant orange – were the main stars of this collection, and added a boldness and flair to the otherwise soft, chiffon textiles. We especially were head over the heels for this dress, which was effortless and very reminiscent of our Enchanted prints.
We hope you have inspired today! We would love to know what colors you enjoy wearing during the fall time. Do you like to switch to the darker, more moody tones or do you stick with your brights? Have a lovely day!
Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone!
Happy Friday! And Happy Hallow’s Eve! What is everyone dressing up as this year?
Ending our week is our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring an adorable quilt made by TamTam Designs, with our Sea Life by Heather Rosas collection. TamTam Designs specializes in handmade, cozy baby blankets and plush play mats. More specifically, TamTam Designs’ blankets are puffed, so that they add extra comfort and support for little ones. It is such a unique technique and look, and can be created with lots of different colors and designs mixed together. One of their recent releases is a puff quilt with our Sea Life collection, and we adore how the green and blues look together! She added a cuddle border, and it is the perfect puff quilt for a little swimmer-in-training.
Thank you so much for the fabric love, TamTam Designs! And thank you for sharing your puff quilt with us on Instagram. We always love seeing the projects you tag us with! Have a fantastic and safe Halloween, everyone!
Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,
Happy Thursday! I hope everyone is having a good one. It’s a bit gloomy here today, but we are excited because tomorrow is Hallow’s Eve!!
Time for this week’s Thankful Thursday! Today we are featuring some projects we had done for our Fall Quilt Market booth. Melissa of Sew Bittersweet Designs sewed a couple of outfits with our Mickey Mouse & Friends collection that are just the sweetest!! The first is the Hummingbird Dress, pattern by RabbitRabbitCreation, that we chose to feature with our adorable Minnie Mouse, red print. A more “playful” outfit is the Sweet Comfy Romper by Puperita Patterns – our primary-colored print was the perfect choice! As well, our Teeny Tiny Tunic (a free pattern on our website!) was so cute in the Minnie colors – especially how the pockets looked like teeny Minnie Mouses!
Finally, Melissa also sewed the children’s Kimono Sleeve Romper by SalmePatterns! The grey Mickey Mouse & Friends print makes this little romper cool and stylish, while still being fun and comfortable!
Melissa did such an incredible job sewing these outfits for us, is always such a sweetheart to work with, and we thank her for making our Mickey Mouse & Friends booth all the more special!! You can find more from Melissa on her blog and Instagram. Stay tuned for lots more from Quilt Market! Have a good day!
Happy Sewing!
