Hi everyone,

 

 

 

Happy Thursday! Hope everyone is having a great day. Today is National Peanut Butter and Jelly Day. Brings us back to our childhood, when there was nothing better than a pb&j sandwich with milk. Mmmm.

 

Time for this week’s Thankful Thursday! Today we are featuring an awesome quilt shop located in Utah, Just Sew Highland. Just Sew Highland has a wonderful selection of diverse fabric collections, from more traditional to more modern. As well, they have “blocks of the month” on their blog, where they feature projects made by their customers. They recently shared a stunning quilt on their Instagram, with our Wildflowers by Alisse Courter Collection. Eva took the challenge, and created Gigi Thimble’s Fresh Cuts Quilt. Fresh Cuts is such a perfect choice because of the lovely tulip designs. The quilt looks fresh, happy, and spring-y, getting us ready for the new season. We adore the mix of prints that Eva chose from Wildflowers, and that she chose to keep the background white so that the flowers could really pop! The quilt kit is also available at Just Sew.

Just in time for the Easter weekend! Thank you for tagging us on Instagram, Just Sew Highland! We are so in love with this version of the Fresh Cuts Quilt, with our Wildflowers Collection. You can find more from Just Sew Highland on their website, Facebook, and Instagram. And with that, have an epic rest of the day!

 

 

 

 

Happy Sewing!

It’s time for some more “thank yous” with this week’s Thankful Thursday. Today we are going to share our wonderful feature in the Craft Ideas April 2014 Digital Magazine. Craft Ideas is an incredible source for all things craft- and DIY-related – from quilting to clay to beading, and everything in-between, they are a fantastic crafting hub for every sort of project you will want to try.

Craft Ideas also featured two of our free tutorials in their May 2014 digital edition. They featured the tutorials for our Plush Stegosaurus and “Love You Forever” Tree Trunk Bolster tutorials!

Happy Wednesday!! We hope everyone’s day has been great so far. It is absolutely freezing here today (thankfully we hadn’t put away our winter coats yet!), but at least the sunshine is out. We are bringing Spring to the office by decorating with all our beautiful, freshly cut flowers. If Mother Nature isn’t giving us Spring weather yet, we’re bringing it to ourselves haha! :)

 

It’s also time for our Winsday Giveaway!! And since this weekend is Easter, we thought we would make this giveaway an egg-stra special one for you all! We are giving away the perfect prize for Easter or Passover – a gorgeous coral fleece blanket with our super cute baby animals design! It would be the perfect blanket to snuggle up with, for a little girl or boy, or to even craft with.

Hi everyone!

 

 

 

 

Happy Tuesday! It is also the first of April today!! And April Fools Day! Did anyone try pulling a prank on someone else or got a prank pulled on them? :) We love a brilliant joke or prank here in the office, as long as it’s all in good fun! Happy pranking! :)

 

We are starting off April with this week’s How To’s Day. Today we are going to share with you another one of our quilt designs – Our Flying High Quilt by Swirly Girls Design for Camelot Fabrics. This quilt design is playful and modernistic, with the triangles creating an awesome “flying high” pattern (almost like geese!) that works wonderfully with our Take Flight Collection. The tiered triangles also give this otherwise simple and clean design more of a bold statement!

This quilt design would look fantastic with any collection, and is perfect as a kid’s quilt or for snuggling with on the couch, but we especially adore it with our Take Flight Collection. You can get the PDF version of this tutorial on our website, in the our Free Projects Program section, but today we are going to share the tutorial with you on the blog. Be sure to also check out Swirly Girls Design for lots more, as well as their Facebook Page, Pinterest, and Twitter!
