Welcome!

Hi everyone,

Happy Friday! Hope everyone had a great week – our first of 2016, and it’s been a pretty good start thus far!

Time for this week’s Fan Friday! Today we are featuring an amazing set of Marvel products that Amanda of jajogifts made this Christmastime. Jajogifts is an online shop started by Amanda while she was on maternity leave. She has always loved crafting and making things for her friends & family, so starting this new venture was perfect with the bit of free time she had. She is inspired by her children. She created a teepee tent for her son Joseph’s first birthday, and after a positive response from friends & family, the Jajo Teepee became a permanent product in her shop, and one that continues to a super popular item!

This Christmas, she created a version of her Jajo Teepee for her nephew with our Marvel Comics Collection. It is seriously one of the coolest projects we’ve even seen! In addition to the tent, she also created a couple of pillows and a bunting banner. We hope her nephew enjoys playing in his new teepee; it looks like a blast!

Thank you so much for the fabric love, Amanda! We are so glad you love our Marvel Comics fabric and chose it for your projects. And with that, have a great weekend everyone!!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Monday! We hope everyone had a wonderful holiday!! Oh, and Happy New Year! It is 2015…wait, what? Where did 2014 go? LOL. We had an amazing 2014, and are super excited for everything that is to come this year. It’s going to be a good one! :)

Starting off 2015 right with our Moody Monday, for your daily dose of inspiration. Today we are featuring our Marvel Comics II Collection by the Camelot Design Studio. This collection brings to life all of your fav9rite Marvel characters, from Spider-Man to Iron Man to the Hulk, and more! The colors in Marvel Comics II are bright and vivacious, the primary color scheme being blue, red, and grey. Deck out your little superhero-in-training’s bedroom with some Marvel Comics II pillows and coordinating tabbed curtains. And don’t forget about the little hero’s outfit. We love the idea of a Marvel Comics circle skirt or tie – and be sure to complete the look with a cape! ;) We also have lots of fun quilt patterns for all our fellow Marvel Comics enthusiasts!

We absolutely adored Versace’s Fall 2014 RTW Collection! The darker hues of burgundy and teal, followed by bright pops of color, gave this collection a very warm and romantic feel. There was definitely a military-esque look to the outfits, with the structured jackets, laced up boots, and button detailing. Even so, there was a femininity to this whole collection that was softened by the more delicate textures and silhouettes. We really loved this outfit, which was reminiscent our Marvel II Collection – strong and powerful! You can see the full collection here.

We hope we have inspired you with today’s post! We hope everyone is having a great 2015 thus far! Only more good things to come :)

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone!

Happy Monday everyone!! We hope you all had a restful weekend. It’s starting to feel like springtime here, and we cannot wait for all the pretty blooms! To add some glisten to your day, have you entered our Bright Now Giveaway on Facebook yet? Giveaway winner will be announced this Wednesday! :)

To start off another great week, we have our Moody Monday to inspire you. Today we are going to share with you our DC Comics Originals moodboard. Our DC Comics Originals collection is the ultimate fabric line for all the DC comics enthusiasts who also love to sew (…or know of someone who can hehe!). This collection brings together all of your favorite DC comics characters – Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Green Lantern, and Flash – in a multitude of vibrant and dynamic designs and prints.

We picture a fun quilt with this collection, as well as t-shirt patches of each DC comic character, and a modern bag design! The possibilities are endless, and can fit the style of all DC Comics fans of all ages everywhere!! You can check out the full collection here.

The DC movie Superman vs. Batman, set to launch in 2016, has been getting a lot of buzz lately on the storyline…and more importantly, who will be playing who! DC Comics has not yet released any set plot information to the public yet, but from the title we can assume there will be a storyline focused on the two superheroes in some way. DC Comics has released most of the actors and actresses set to play the superheroes: Henry Cavill as Superman, Ben Affleck as Batman, Amy Adams as Lois Lane, and Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman. This film will include all your favorite DC Comics characters, just like in our fabric collection!

There has been lots of discussion amongst fans on the chosen parts, namely Batman and Wonder Woman – What do you think about the chosen cast? We are SUPER excited for this movie to launch – We are happy with the cast members and cannot wait to see the movie ourselves. We cannot wait for all the action and drama, we know it’s going to be an amazing movie! :)

We hope we have inspired you with this week’s Moody Monday! Remember, you are all superheroes in your own right :) “Always be yourself. Unless you can be Batman…then always be Batman”. Have a fantastic day!

Happy Sewing!
