Welcome!

It’s time for this week’s What We Love #70 ♥ We have been enjoying the cozy benefits of this fall weather – having an ‘excuse’ to stay indoors and drink hot chocolate, getting to dress up in lots of layers (which may, or may not, also be to hide the extra pumpkin pie we had this weekend – so worth it!), and snuggling up for extra cuddles. The season of bundling up brings the best, cozy time activities. See what else we have been loving this week… ♥

Marion: Red Kuri Squash
Shannen: Mulled Apple Cider Sangria
Juan: Dynamo
Ciana: Red Fox
Sara: Pastel Chewies
Valeria: Dino Wallpaper
Vanessa: Pie + Lattes > Pilates
Roxanne: Vintage Illustration

Hope you enjoyed this week’s What We Love! We’d love to know what you have been loving most. Bring on the knitted socks and hot apple cider, fall – bring it on ♥

Hi everyone,

Happy Thursday! I hope you all are having a marvelous day!!

On to this week’s Thankful Thursday! Today we are sharing a project featured in the Sew Fabricated Quilt Shop – our Boxy Tunic sewn by the lovely Jess Zim. To showcase our Paradise by Alisse Courter collection, they chose our Boxy Tunic (a free pattern on our website!) as the front liner, and wow – does it look fantastic in person!! They chose the purple, medallion print for the bodice, the floral damask print for sleeve and hem details, and even added POCKETS!! An addition by Jess, that we absolutely adore. The dress is so cute, and makes for a wonderful walk-in to greet customers.

This dress definitely made us take a double-turn look when we saw it on Instragam!! Jess did an amazing job in creating the Boxy Dress, and we hope she had fun sewing with our pattern!

Thank you so much, Jess and Sew Fabricated, for the pattern and fabric love!! We want a dress of our own – pockets included!! ;) Have a wonderful day, everyone!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Tuesday!! I hope all of our fellow Canadians had a blissful and relaxing Thanksgiving weekend. We are filled with love, good memories, and lots of turkey & apple pie!

Time for this week’s How To’s Day! Today we are featuring our Chevron Quilt by Vanessa Fromm of Fabric Confetti. The Chevron Quilt is a simple, yet modern quilt pattern of horizontal chevrons. Playing with geometric shapes, the chevrons cut cool geometrics in the background which look really fun using similar-toned fabric designs. We chose to showcase our Chevron Quilt with our Fresh Solids, and love how the midnight blue chevrons pop against the sunset-colored background. This would be beautiful to decorate a bed or wall space!

Hi everyone,

Happy Friday!! Here’s to a fantastic weekend, everyone! Wishing all our fellow Canadians a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Ending our week with our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring some projects with our Paradise by Alisse Courter collection, created by Deb of Chosen Sisters. Chosen Sisters is an Etsy Shop owned by Capi and Deb, started after Capi had moved away. They wanted to find something they could do together and still be connected as friends. Their shop is a place where you can find unique and vintage-inspired, handmade pieces such as baby bonnets, bibs, traveling pouches, and pretty tape measures (an idea sparked from a magazine image!).

One of their latest additions is with our Paradise collection. We love how they were inspired by the collection, adding little buttons as flower centers – so lovely!! Now you’ll want to display your tape measure on your sewing table, instead of hiding it away in a tangled mess haha ;)

They also created a pouch set with Paradise, which includes a traveling pouch, a matching needlebook, and a tape measure. This would make for such a sweet gift for your fellow sewing friends!

Thank you so much for the fabric love! Your tape measures are genius, and we adore them with our Paradise collection. You can find more from Chosen Sisters on their Instagram, Facebook, and Etsy Shop. Have an awesome weekend!

Happy Sewing!
