Hi everyone,

Happy Monday! I hope you all had a great weekend!! We had lots of unfortunate rain and wind… ready for Spring! ;)

And speaking of springtime, if we can’t change Mother Nature’s mind… let us be inspired by today’s Moody Monday. Today we are sharing our Bonne Nuit collection, a cozy and sweet collection of muted blue, grey, and pink hues. This collection is full of adorable sleeping bears, fluffy skies, and glowing stars – so wonderful and dreamy! So perfect for a little newborn’s nursery or as a quilt to snuggle up with on a cold, wintery night.

Mara Hoffman’s Spring/Summer 2016 collection was flowy, boho-inspired, and oh-so dreamy. The 70’s were definitely a big influence in this collection, with the jumpsuits, hairstyle, off-the-shoulder details, and maxi skirts. The color scheme was very floral and nature-inspired, bold brights against a neutral background. One of our favorites was this outfit; the sheer, star-infused look was very reminiscent of our Bonne Nuit collection. Adore!

We hope we have inspired you with today’s look. We’d love to know what you think! Have a wonderful day!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Friday! I hope you all are having a wonderful day!!

Ending our week with our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring a couple of gorgeous aprons with our Scented collection. Charmed by Aprons is an online shop of feminine, 50s-inspired aprons in elegant and playful fabric prints & combinations. It all started when Liivika, owner of Charmed by Aprons, was searching for feminine aprons to no luck. She decided to create her own patterns, getting inspiration from vintage styles. Her friends loved her aprons so much, that it sparked the idea for a new business idea. Her shop has now expanded to several designs and limited collections, and is ever-growing. Her wish? “…that every woman feels comfortable and feminine in our aprons!”

One of her latest fabric choices caught our eye… or rather our nose! She chose a couple of prints from our Scented collection, perfectly mixing and matching different prints (and scents!) to create her stunning aprons. One of our favorites is the Peachy Peach apron, featuring our “peachy peach” design. Love the complimentary coral color with it. She also combined two of our scented prints – Watermelon and Pink Sugar. Pink and red is always a classic combination, but we also have no qualms about an ever sweeter watermelon scent.

Thank you for the fabric love, Liivika!! These aprons are absolutely gorgeous!! You can check more from Charmed by Aprons on their website, as well as on their Instagram. And with that – have an amazing weekend!!

Happy Sewing!

It’s time for this week’s What We Love #75 ♥ How did the holiday season catch up with us so soon? As we step outside now, the streets are decked in glitter and sparkle – creating a magical scene against the onyx sky. We can’t help by getting to the holiday spirit, even though it isn’t quite December yet. But, it never is too early to listen to holiday music or bake gingerbread people… at least we don’t think so ;) See what we have been loving this week… ♥
