Hi everyone,

 

 

 

 

Happy Tuesday! We hope you all are doing wonderfully today. It’s been absolutely beautiful outside today – a high of 6 °C (oh my!). Here’s hoping for a continuous uphill in temperature!

 

Time for this week’s How To’s Day! Today we are featuring our modern Slanted Wrap Wallet by Marion of Made by Marion. Our Slanted Wrap Wallet is a stunner, and features lovely binding details so you can choose different fabrics for each block. Our wrap wallet includes an attached loop, so it would also make for a great clutch, especially for a girl’s night out. Carry your essentials – cards, keys, phone, and lipgloss – and you are good to dance the night away! We chose to feature our Slanted Wrap Wallet in our London Fog Collection, and think it looks super sleek and fun!!

Hi everyone,

 

 

 

 

Happy Monday! We hope you are having a marvelous weekend. As well, in honor of International Women’s Day yesterday, here’s to all the strong and incredible women who follow us on the blog. “Behind every successful woman is herself”.

 

It’s time to start off this week with our Moody Monday! Today we are featuring our Heirloom Collection by our Camelot Design Studio. Heirloom is a rich, sophisticated collection of mustard, burgundy, and grey colorways in bold geometrics! As well, Heirloom is printed on 100% natural, unbleached cotton which makes it perfect for blending into home decor projects. We love the idea of an elegant pillow or quilt with our warm, fall-inspired tones.

Yeohlee’s Autumn 15/16 RTW Collection is everything we imagine a fall wardrobe to be inspired by. Dark and brooding in colors and silhouettes, all of the ensembles in this collection are soft and comfortable, while still being chic! Tweed, silk, and billowy chiffon fabrics give beautiful movement to each piece, which we absolutely adore! We especially love this print, which is reminiscent of our Heirloom Collection. You can also check out the full collection here!

 

 

Be sure to check out the full Heirloom Collection here! We’d love to know what you think of our stunning, unbleached collection. And with that, have a great day!!

Hi everyone,

 

 

 

 

Happy Thursday! We hope you all are having a fantastic day. It’s sunny, it’s cheery, but it’s still cold here haha. Spring, where are you? We promise to greet you with open arms.

 

It’s time for this week’s Thankful Thursday. Today, we wanted to share a couple of projects from one of our pattern designers – The Cloth Parcel. Run by a dynamic mother-daughter duo, Audrey and Diane, The Cloth Parcel is an online sewing, quilting, and crafting supplies shop. From a beautiful selection of fabrics to all of your notion-needs, The Cloth Parcel is dedicated to supplying you with all your crafting needs. As well, they sell wonderful kits  for some awesome projects. In addition to running their online supplies shop, Audrey and Diane also create and sell their own quilt patterns!

We have had the pleasure of working with Audrey and Diane, to create a quilt pattern for our Free Projects Program. Their Tumbling Jewels Quilt is a stunner, and has definitely been a favorite on the interwebs! We decided to have a physical Tumbling Jewels Quilt made up with our London Fog Collection (as seen above!), and it looks absolutely fantastic. As always, beautiful quilt work by the girls. We had a blast styling it, and we can’t wait to feature it in upcoming events.

 

As well, the girls recently launched a new quilt design on their website called Theory of Refraction. Aside from the super cool name (any fellow physics buffs?), their Theory of Refraction Quilt is so lovely to look at. They chose to feature our Peacock Garden by Jane Farnham Collection on the pattern cover, and it looks wonderful! Inspired by a prism, we adore how the colors and patterns intertwine with one another in this quilt design, to create a beautiful look. Great choice, girls!

As well, find more from The Cloth Parcel on their website, blog, Instagram, and Facebook Page. Have a great rest of the day!!

Anything to get us through the last couple of cold days of March. Spring weather, we’re ready for you! ;) See what else has been inspiring us this week… ♥

Hi everyone,

 

 

 

Happy Wednesday! We hope you all are doing great. If you missed yesterday’s post, we shared our stunning Color Block Pillow Tutorial – complete with fun tassels! You can find the full, free tutorial and patterns here.

 

It’s Wednesday, which means it’s time to announce our Winsday winner! Last week, we hosted a collaborative giveaway with May Arts Ribbon for our No-Sew Pillow Cover Kit. The prize included the three things you need to create a gorgeous pillow cover – the pattern, 3 yards of our Wildflowers fabric, and some gorgeous May Arts Ribbon. Because Spring is soon approaching us, we thought it would be fun to add some fresh blooms to our week…

 

This week, we asked you what your favorite flower was. This question definitely brought up our spirits in the office, and made us so happy. We loved seeing the mix of beautiful flowers in the comments, with our personal favorites being daisies, dahlias, and sunflowers! But of course, we could only choose one winner. The winner of this week’s Winsday is…
