Welcome!

Hi everyone,

Happy Tuesday! I hope everyone is having a great day. Have you entered our Nordic FQB Giveaway yet? Be sure to enter here!

Time for this week’s How To’s Day! Today we are featuring our Peaks & Valleys Table Runner by Melissa Corry of Happy Quilting Designs. The Peaks & Valleys Table Runner is a simple, but elegant table runner that will add a fun pop to your dining or living room table. The “zig-zag” designs are made up of smaller triangles to resemble peaks & valleys, while the clean white space makes it an easy mixing piece with your current decor. How pretty does it look with the color colorway of our Beach House by Jack!e McFee collection? Gorg!

We also had this table runner made up for our Quilt Market Mickey Mouse & Friends section. We adore how the bright, primary colors look together. Shannon Fraser did such an amazing job!

Hi everyone,

Happy Tuesday! I hope you all are having a fantastic day so far!! If you’re headed to Fall QM, we’ll be there too – be sure to by booth #414 :)

Time for this week’s How To’s Day! Today we are featuring our Cracker Lattice Quilt by Meadow Mist Designs. Cracker Lattice is a very pretty design of double lattices along the whole quilt. To add a fun twist, each intersection of lattices is a diamond block, which creates a look of interlocking squares and rectangle shapes. We chose to showcase Cracker Lattice with our Beach House Collection by Jack!e McFee. The mixing of coral prints keep the quilt feminine and sweet – perfect for a nursery or little girl’s bedroom!

Hi everyone,

Happy Monday! I hope you all had a great weekend. We had our first signs of winter here, with our first snowfall. In mid-October. Oh boy. Thanks, Mother Nature!

Starting off our week with our Moody Monday! Today we are featuring our Beach House Collection by Jack!e McFee. Our Beach House Collection brings you the complete feel of the ocean in its two, beautiful colorways – the calm and soothing waters in the Tide colorway, and the warmness of the sunset & sand in the Coral colorway. The designs are perfect for a beach house or ocean-themed room, which includes stunning beach glass, starfish, and seashell patterns.

When we saw this bathroom decor, we instantly thought of our Beach House by Jack!e McFee collection. The calming blue and white striped walls are a great contrast for the unique, starfish shadowbox. Blue is such a relaxing, but clean and uplifting color so we love the idea of a ocean-themed bathroom – complete with sea trinkets!

We hope we have inspired you with today’s post! We’re going to dream about being on the beach today, instead of the snow we received on the weekend… Have a good one!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Tuesday! I hope you all are having a great day so far. If there’s a food holiday, you know we’re going to share about it. Today happens to be National Chocolate Chip Day. Well I guess we’ll have to eat some chocolate chip cookies then, in doing our part to celebrate the day ;)

Time for this week’s How To’s Day! Today we are sharing a beautiful tutorial for our Box Trot Quilt, designed by the incredibly talented Chris Hoover of Whirligig Designs. The box-like pieces in our Box Trot Quilt are perfect for highlighting a multitude of different fabric patterns, overall giving a very fun and whimsical look. Each “box” is bordered, which we chose to keep neutral and uniform with the background in the quilt below. We chose to feature our Beach House by Jack!e McFee collection, mixing the coral and tide colorways for a relaxing ocean feel. We love how the bright colors pop against the white background; such a modern and feminine quilt!

Hi everyone,

Hope you all had a fantastic weekend! What did you all get up to? Any fun sewing projects that you’ve been working on?

Time for our Moody Monday! Today we are featuring our Beach House Collection by Jack!e McFee. The Beach House Collection is a gorgeous two colorway collection of coral and tide blue, inspired by the beautiful ocean. This collection includes classic floral patterns, as well as beach glass, seashell, and starfish prints, that will instantly make you feel like you are right on the beach. Some simple tabbed curtains or these cool venn place mats will give your place a beach house feel, without being anywhere near the water! 

Victoria Beckham’s Spring 2015 collection was effortless and cool, with its tailored suits, belted dresses, and clean lines. Her chosen color palette was mainly neutrals – black, beige, burgundy – with a punch of color with her coral floral pattern. We thought it was a super fun design, which was also reminiscent of our Beach House Collection. Whatever Victoria Beckham does, we know it will be on-trend and fabulous, and her Spring 2015 collection does that justice.

We hope we have inspired you with today’s post! We’d love to know what your favorite thing about the beach is – is it the calming sound of the waves? Or maybe building sandcastles with your little ones? Beach time = happy times. Have a wonderful day!

Happy Sewing!
