Hi everyone,
Happy Friday! Hope everyone had a great week – our first of 2016, and it’s been a pretty good start thus far!
Time for this week’s Fan Friday! Today we are featuring an amazing set of Marvel products that Amanda of jajogifts made this Christmastime. Jajogifts is an online shop started by Amanda while she was on maternity leave. She has always loved crafting and making things for her friends & family, so starting this new venture was perfect with the bit of free time she had. She is inspired by her children. She created a teepee tent for her son Joseph’s first birthday, and after a positive response from friends & family, the Jajo Teepee became a permanent product in her shop, and one that continues to a super popular item!
This Christmas, she created a version of her Jajo Teepee for her nephew with our Marvel Comics Collection. It is seriously one of the coolest projects we’ve even seen! In addition to the tent, she also created a couple of pillows and a bunting banner. We hope her nephew enjoys playing in his new teepee; it looks like a blast!
Thank you so much for the fabric love, Amanda! We are so glad you love our Marvel Comics fabric and chose it for your projects. And with that, have a great weekend everyone!!
Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone!
Happy Thursday! I hope you all are having a lovey day.
Time for this week’s Thankful Thursday! New year, new beautiful quilts to be discovered!! Today we are sharing a gorgeous quilt pattern from Missouri Star Quilt Co. – Broken Bars! A version of the Broken Bars Quilt was created by Cristina Tepsick from Pretty Little Quilts. The quilt design reminded her of rows of books, and from that inspiration, created a Jane Austen-inspired color scheme with our Magnolia by Alisse Courter collection. She followed Jenny’s tutorial pretty much to a “t”, but changed the sizes of the strips to give an authentic bookshelf feel. We love her version, and how she even added strips of horizontal pieces to reference a real book’s spine. The Broken Bars quilt is such a great one, and we adore how Cristina revamped it! What a fantastic tutorial reboot.
Thank you to Jenny and everyone at Missouri Star Quilt Co. for the awesome free pattern, and to Cristina for choosing our fabric for her revamp. If you’d like to check out the tutorial reboot, you can click here. They’re also giving away a bundle of our Magnolia collection, so be sure to enter. Have an amazing rest of the day!
Happy Sewing!
