Welcome!

Hi everyone,

Happy Monday! I hope you all had an extraordinary weekend. Guess what I had? Cotton candy! Mhmm. The kind that is rolled right in front of you too. And pink, of course. What a perfect treat!

Time for this week’s Moody Monday! Today we are featuring our Ethereal Collection by Camelot Design Studio. Ethereal is our feminine and soft collection of periwinkle, tide, and orchid hues that create delicate floral prints. Inspired by the gorgeous florals – peonies, dahlias, daisies, tulips –  found in a field of prettiness, we can imagine ourselves frolicking through the field in our Ethereal dress. Give your room the ultimate feminine update with some floral printed pillows and quilt, in our purple- and blue-hued collection. 

Lusia Beccaria’s Spring 2015 Collection was the epitome of femininity and class. Each dress was unique and more stunning than the next, decorated with beautiful floral pieces, intricate bead work, and chiffon layers. We are so in love, and could imagine any of these dresses for a fairy garden affair. We especially loved this dress, which was very reminiscent in color and print to our Ethereal collection. Faaaaaabulous.

We hope we have inspired you with today’s post! We’d love to know what you think of our wondrous Ethereal Collection. Have a lovely day!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Monday! I hope you all had a marvelous weekend. We’re hosting our A Marsala Moment Giveaway this week, so be sure to check it out. Marsala, copper, blue, and orange hues – it’s a collection that is sure to dazzle your next project.

Starting our week with our Moody Monday! This week, we are sharing with you our Nordic by Camelot Design Studio collection. Inspired by Scandinavian style, our Nordic collection is soft, clean, and all kinds of gorgeous. Muted blush and greys combine together to create geometric prints of swiss crosses, ikats, and funky diamonds. Such a modern and clean collection, that we absolutely adore! 

SO much love for Thakoon’s Spring 2015 Collection! His collection was so feminine and pretty, combining lots of different prints and textures. His main print was a gorgeous mix of eggplant and marsala tones, to create a wonderful feminine design. As well, silk, chiffon, and tassels were among the other mediums he used to create his eclectic collection. We especially adored this graphically interesting cropped number, which was reminiscent of our Nordic Collection.

We hope we have inspired you with today’s Moody Monday! We love a graphic and bold print. Have a fantastic rest of the day!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Friday! I hope you all are having a wonderful day!! Weekend is just about here – any plans? :)

Ending our week with our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring some gorgeous clutches by Shannon Fraser of s/f designs. s/f designs is an Etsy shop dedicated to handmade & unique aprons, pillows, cosmetic bags, make-up brush rolls, lavender sachets, pet accessories, and more. As a longtime fabric lover, Shannon decided to take her passion and do something she enjoyed with it – making beautiful items to sell! She is inspired by nature and color in choosing fabric collections to sew with, and to create her designs. Her motto is to share her “love and passion with the world through [her] creative designs, one piece at a time.”

Shannon used a couple of designs from our Wildflowers collection for some feminine clutches, and we love how they turned out! She mixed our gorgeous floral prints with some textured, natural fabrics – which is the perfect balance.  The simple foldover clutches include a top zipper to hold all of your belongings. And, how the floral prints add a pop of color to the clutch is perfect. Not too much pattern, but just enough. So pretty!

Thank you, Shannon, for the fabric love! We are so happy you enjoy working with our Wildflowers Collection. You can find more from s/f designs on Etsy, Facebook, and Instagram. Have an incredible weekend!!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Thursday! I hope you all are having a lovely day. Today is National Vanilla Ice Cream Day… we’ll gladly have ice cream of ANY flavor, any day. If we could, of course haha ;)

Time for our Thankful Thursday! Today we are featuring a fantastic quilting read, the McCall’s Quick Quilts magazine. McCall’s Quick Quilts is the McCall’s magazine dedicated to the beginner quilter, those who have just found an interest in quilting and aren’t quite sure where to begin or those who are looking for some easier-leveled quilt patterns. As the name suggests, this magazine is all about modern quilting, and focuses on patterns. Each issue includes a good number of quilt patterns to choose from, so you may have some future WIPs coming up ;) “Make fresh, fun, fabulous quilts” is this issue’s motto, and we couldn’t have summed it up better ourselves.

In the latest issue of McCall’s Quick Quilts, Tammy Silvers of Tamarinis (also one of our amazing pattern designers!), designed a quilt pattern for them called Morning Stroll. Morning Stroll focuses on a lesson on quick and easy curves, using templates to create pieced wedges. The quilt pattern features our Folklore Collection by Heather Rosas, with the pretty red and blue feminine prints creating such a stunning bed quilt.

Thank you Tammy for choosing our Folklore collection, and for McCall’s Quick Quilts for featuring the wonderful quilt pattern. You can find the Morning Stroll pattern in their latest issue, so be sure to check it out!! Have a fantastic rest of the day!

Happy Sewing!

It’s time for our final collection launch for Summer 2015! We hope you have enjoyed hanging out with us, and now are as obsessed with our collections as we are. Beach House Collection by Jack!e McFee is our absolutely gorgeous and soothing ocean-inspired collection of sea shells, star fish, and sea glass. As well, it is a combination of two equally gorgeous colorways: the Coral Edition and the Tide Edition. The Coral Edition features feminine hues of coral and pinks that, together, create a tropical feel. The Tide Edition brings you the calming blues and greens that are inspired by the ocean. Beautiful and unique in their own ways, but both will whisk you away to a beach paradise.

One thing we love about the beach is getting all of your close friends together for a day out in the sun. Wear your bright, new bathing suit, bring the sunscreen, and get ready for a full day of fun and laughter! After a great day out, head home for a BBQ. Our Venn Placemats are a lovely way to add some more color to your table, especially in the coral edition of the Beach House Collection.

If you are more inspired by the serenity of the beach, we love the idea of an ocean-inspired room. Our Color Block Pillow and Whimsical Quilt, in the tide edition of the Beach House Collection, are the perfect additions. Cozy up with a good book and you will feel like you are at the beach.

Who’s ready for a beach vacation now? I hope you have enjoyed our Summer 2015 Collection Launch Week!! You can see all of the collections here. Let us know which collection is your favorite!! :)
