It’s our Winter 2015 Launch Week!! We are so excited to share with you our 6 new collections, and we hope you love them!

 

Today we are sharing the first of our Winter 2015 collections, Zoey by the Camelot Design Studio. Our Zoey Collection is soft and feminine, featuring muted shades of blue, green, and blush pink in lattice, paisley, and floral designs. Zoey is the epitome of eloquence and grace; we can imagine a pretty Zoey dress paired with an afternoon tea brunch with your best girlfriends!

Decorate a cozy, darling cottage with a couple of Zoey pillows and quilts, such as our Baby Blocks Quilt, for that added touch of femininity. We love our Yoga Bag Carrier with our Zoey print too!

Hi everyone,

 

 

 

Happy Friday! Woot woot for it being the end of the week! We’ve made it through our first week of February…it can only get better (weather wise!) from here. Cold fingers and toes crossed!

 

Time to end our week with our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring some awesome Beyond the Backyard projects made by Reece Montgomery. We were tagged on Instagram by Reece, and when we saw her pictures, we had a “oh-my-good-so-cute” moment lol. We absolutely adore the projects that Reece decided to create with our floral and leaf, Spring-inspired collection. She also featured these projects on her blog, Happy Okapi, which you can check out here. In addition to sharing her projects on her blog, she is Canadian-based (like us!!) and shares upcoming fabric collections & sales!

She used Swoon Sewing Patterns’ Dorothy Day Tripper pattern to create a stunning Beyond the Backyard bag – the pattern that actually features our Design Studio Collection as its front image! She also made some other cool accessories with Beyond the Backyard – a coffee cozie, a couple of key fobs, and an eyeglasses pouch. We love how versatile our collection is, and that it looks so great in each project!!

Hi everyone,

 

 

 

 

Happy Thursday! We hope you all are having a wonderful day so far. Did you know…that today is World Nutella Day? Yup, it’s an official day dedicated to the incredibly delicious (and highly addictive!) chocolate, hazelnut spread that is amazing with pretty much anything (or on it’s own. Spoonfuls? We’re not judging haha!).

 

Time for our Thankful Thursday! Today we are featuring one of our favorite magazines, Craft Ideas. Their latest Winter 2014 edition was also the big reveal of their new look. Everything got revamped and updated, and it looks fantastic!!  Complete with a new logo, the updated magazine now features a “New Products” section (a breakdown of the latest craft tools and materials), Book Reviews, a “Green Ideas” section (listings for eco-friendly products and companies), and highlights up-and-coming designers. As well, Craft Ideas will now be releasing a new printed issue every second month! We were always a fan of Craft Ideas, and were so excited that they were taking on this new venture.

Flipping through the Winter 2014 issue, you might recognize some familiar projects. Craft Ideas featured two of our free projects in their magazine. The first is our Cascading Chevrons Pillow, one of our favorites! You can find the free pattern on our website too. As well, they featured our Border Blast Quilt by one of our wonderful pattern designers, Larene Smith of The Quilted Button.

We love working with Craft Ideas Magazine and are so happy they love our projects. And, it’s also so fun seeing our projects featured in print! You can find out more from Craft Ideas on their website, Facebook Page, Twitter, Pinterest, and YouTube. And with that, we’re going to find us some Nutella…haha. Have a great day!

Time to announce our Winsday winner. This week, we asked you what your favorite Pantone 2015 Spring color was on our Facebook, for a chance to win our Elixir FQ Bundle. We had so much fun seeing which would be the most popular colors! We saw all of them chosen, but definitely saw a preference to “lucite green” and “classic blue”. Thanks to everyone who entered, and for making our weeks so much more colorful! But of course, we could only choose one winner…so the lucky winner of our Elixir FQ bundle is
