Welcome!

Hi everyone,

Happy Friday!! Weekend, weekend!! Here we come! Also, be sure to enter our A Marsala Moment Giveaway on our Facebook Page :)

Ending our week with our Fan Friday! Today we are sharing a really pretty quilt, quilted by Katherine Gray. She used the Yuma Quilt pattern by GothamQuilts, which is a super fun geometric quilt designs of lots of scattered equilateral triangles. Katherine chose to feature our What a Gem by Allison Cole collection, and we absolutely adore how the pink, coral, and blue prints mix together. As well, the whimsical quilt pattern works really well with our boho-inspired collection. Katherine decided a beach setting would go nicely as a backdrop to her quilt, and we definitely agree!

Thank you so much, Katherine, for the fabric love! The quilt pattern and What a Gem Collection definitely go hand-in-hand, and love how your quilt turned out. You can find the quilt pattern for the Yuma Quilt here. Have an awesome-tastic weekend, everyone – you deserve it!!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Friday! I hope you all had a wonderful week – but yes, we’re so are so glad it’s the weekend!!

We are very excited to be sharing this week’s Fan Friday project…because it’s one of our own, exclusive tutorials: our Quilted Bucket Bag! Jennifer Trumbo saw the tutorial on our blog, and fell in love. She created our bucket bag for her #coloroftheyearswap partner, and loved it SO much, that she made one for herself with the same fabrics. She didn’t have any trouble with our tutorial, and mentioned that our pattern was perfect (aw, shucks!) and that the bag had plenty of room. Her finished bag looks fantastic, and we adore the fun prints she chose.

Thank you so much, Jen, for the project love! You don’t know how excited we were when we saw your bag – SO glad you had fun with the project!! Hope your new bag has many awesome adventures with you! You can find the free tutorial for our Quilted Bucket Bag on our website. And with that, have a lovely weekend!!

Happy Sewing!

Time for our What We Love #60 ♥ This week, we have very much been inspired by travel, culture, and wonders. Such as the gorgeous city of Bilbao (where one of our designers, Val, had the pleasure of visiting!) to the Feria de Las Flores – a floral festival in Colombia, there is an abundance of culture and brilliance to be explored around us. See what else we have been loving this week… ♥

Vanessa: “We’re all a little Weird” Print
Ciana: Quartz on Arsenopyrite | Portugal

Valeria: Bilbao, Spain

Hope you feel inspired today! We’d love to know what has been inspiring you. Sometimes we forget to tell our favorite people how much they mean to us, so today, tell those favorite people how dearly you love them. They’ll feel the love, and so will you ♥

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!
