Welcome!

Hi everyone!

Happy Monday!! We hope everyone had a lovely weekend, and a fantastic May the 4th!! Also – Happy Cinco de Mayo to those who celebrate. Have you entered our Glow-in-the-dark Star Wars Fabric Giveaway yet? There’s still time to enter!!

To start off a brand-new week, we have our Moody Monday! Today we are sharing our Angry Birds Star Wars fabric collection with you all. Yesterday was Star Wars Day, so we wanted to carry on the celebrations into the week by showcasing one of our Star Wars collections. In fact, Star Wars Day had become so popular that May 5th was jokingly pronounced “Revenge of the Fifth” (A play on the Star Wars’ movie “Revenge of the Sith”). On this day, Star Wars fans let their “evil sides” shine through by celebrating the Sith Lords and evil villains from Star Wars.

I guess that could definitely correlate with our Angry Birds Star Wars collection, as the Angry Birds are the Rebels & the Piggies are the Empire! The original Angry Birds game was launched in 2009, and have since accounted for over 2 billions downloads worldwide across all platforms. Since its launch, its popularity has led to game merchandise, collaborations, and future film & television ventures making it the largest mobile app success right now!

The game is actually so much fun, and even more addicting…and Star Wars decided to get on board in 2012. They created a collaborative Angry Birds Star Wars game, and from its success, an Angry Birds Star Wars II the following year. The game includes all of your favorite Star Wars characters, including Luke Skywalker Bird as Red, Han Solo Bird as Chuck, Chewbacca Bird as Terrence, Princess Leia Bird as Stella, and Stormtrooper Pigs! We created a concurrent Angry Birds Star Wars Fabric Collection to correlate with the game, the characters, and its success! The collection is bold and vibrant, including all of your favorite characters in action. Get in on the fun here!

We hope you have enjoyed this week’s Moody Monday! Be sure to enter our Star Wars Giveaway if you haven’t yet. May the force be with you!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone!

Happy Friday everyone! TGIF!! We hope everyone is having a wonderful, sunshine-filled day. If not – we’ve got something to brighten your day! We are giving away a Bright Now Fabric Stack on our Facebook Page this week!

To end this week, we have got our Fan Friday!! Today we’ve got another incredible project to share with you all – Yana from Hemming Birds created a gorgeous half-apron that is absolutely perfect with our Iconic Collection. Yana made this wonderful half-apron as a wedding shower gift for her best friend, Melissa, who resides in New York City.

The design is loosely based on a vintage apron Yana had seen in an antique store. It’s also reversible…AND has pockets (We love ANYTHING with pockets here at CF!). She chose our Iconic Collection for its more modern esthetic, and it is honestly a perfect pairing with this half-apron. And I mean, who wouldn’t want to bake up a batch of oatmeal, chocolate chip cookies in this adorable apron? :)

Yana and her sister-in-law, Jennifer, started their blog Hemming Birds to share their passions for cooking, baking, and sewing as well as mom/family-related topics. Moreover, they will be opening up a handmade shop in May, which will be featuring handmade children’s accessories – bibs, girl’s handbags, backpacks, aprons, and more! They have also posted the tutorial for this half-apron on their blog, so be sure to check it out. What’s even more exciting is that you could win your very own Iconic Apron on their blog – so be sure to enter the giveaway for your chance! This apron makes us want to do some baking and cooking, and we are super excited for whoever wins.

You can also find the wonderful and super creative ladies of Hemming Birds on their blog, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. Thank you so much, Yana, for sharing your half-apron with us! It is absolutely stunning and seeing the pictures made our day!! Have a wonderful weekend everyone, and don’t forget to stop by our Facebook Page to enter our Bright Now Giveaway.

Happy Sewing!
