Welcome!

We’re sharing some more Fall 2015 Collections with you! Today we are launching our Enchanted by Alisse Courter Collection. Enchanted is our warm and cozy floral-infused collection in red-orange, marigold, and plum colorways. Each color reminds us of the richness of autumn at its peak. Together, they create a wonderfully unexpected and unique combination of hues.

Get your cozy on with an autumn-hued Enchanted quilt, such as our Whimiscal Quilt – make yourself a hot cup of tea and choose your favorite novel, and you’ll be set! They say warm tones boost the appetite; how about testing that theory with some marigold-yellow curtains and matching table napkins? Now we’re just missing the pumpkin spice muffins!

We’d love to know what you think about our Enchanted by Alisse Courter collection!! We’re ready to show you more of our Fall 2015 collections… are you ready? :)

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 Monday! We hope you all had a fantastic weekend. It snowed here this weekend, so that was sort of a bittersweet moment. Spring is this Friday, but we’re still crossing our fingers! We’re also hosting our Scented FQ Bundle Giveaway this week, so be sure to enter here.

Time for our Moody Monday! This week, we are featuring our Paradise by Alisse Courter for Camelot Fabrics Collection. Paradise is our festive collection of gorgeous florals, delicate leaves, and medallions in a fun orange, bright pink, and purple color combination. Rich, playful, and vivacious in mood, our Paradise Collection would look beautiful in a colorful, girl’s bedroom or playful skirt. Twirling around in all these wondrous colors has us longing for those hot, sunny “paradise” days.

Louis Vuitton’s 2013 Fall/Winter RTW Collection was broody and mysterious, with its warm earth tones in luxurious fabrics, such as velvet, sateen, lace, and animal skin. Vuitton’s collection reminds us of an old black-and-white film, with the cropped black hair and dark red lips, in hollywood-esque silhouettes. We loved the fun, added textures of ostrich feathers, fur, and tweed – a mix of a lot, but looks fantastic together. We especially adored the ditsy, floral prints which were reminiscent of our Paradise Collection. You can check out the full collection from the show here.

We hope we have inspired you with this week’s Moody Monday! We’d love to know what prints and colors you’re excited by for Spring. Have an awesome day, everyone! :)

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Monday! Wishing everyone a fantastic start to the week. We woke up to flurries, and it is currently still coming down. Time to bring out the parkas and winter boots!! Also, have you entered our Fresh Solids FQB Giveaway yet? Be sure to enter on our Facebook Page by letting us know what your favorite fresh solid is.

It’s time to start off the week with some inspiration, with our Moody Monday! Today we are featuring our gorgeous Wildflowers by Alisse Courter Collection. This whimsy collection is full of dainty floral prints, fluttery vines, and lovely sprigs in comforting chartreuse, grey, turquoise, and coral hues. So elegant and pretty, this collection would make for a sweet little girl’s dress or full circle skirt. As well, we love the idea of adding a Wildflowers quilt draped on a couch or bed to add a touch of femininity.

Vera Wang’s Spring 2015 RTW Collection was brooding and dark, but the prints and silhouettes were far from simple. Keeping the color palette relatively simple – blacks and neutral floral prints – Vera chose to focus on silhouettes and texture. Lots of ruffles, brocade, floral, and sparkle, as well as flowing draping textiles. Such a stunning collection! We especially loved this dress, which reminded us of our Wildflowers Collection, with its dainty coral florals. You can see the rest of the collection here!

We hope you have been inspired by this week’s Moody Monday! We would love to know what trends you are looking forward to for the Spring season (yup, we know we’re just at the cusp of winter…but hey, we can dream of warmer weather lol). Have a good one!

Happy Sewing!
