Along with launching our Summer 2015 collections, we’ve also launched a couple in our double gauze with Nordic, Ethereal, and The Beach House Collection. Double gauze is our newest, lightweight fabric that is exceptionally soft and flowy. Ethereal, our fluttery and floral collection, would make a lovely, comfy infinity scarf. Look fabulous heading to the beach in our stylish, pom-pom beach cover-up in our The Beach House Collection. And once you’ve had some fun in the sun, throw on a comfy maxi skirt and a Nordic crop top – and you’ll be ready for a casual dinner!
See all of our double gauze prints for Ethereal, Nordic, and the Beach House Collection. We’d love to know what you think about our newest substrate, and what you would create.

Hi everyone,
Happy Friday! I hope you all are having a fantastic day!! We’ve been posting our Summer 2015 collections this week, and we’d love to know which ones are your favorite!
Ending another wonderful week with our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring some really awesome washable grocery bags that Karin, of Leigh Laurel Studios, made. Using the Grocery Bag pattern from Michelle Patterns, Karin said that the bags were so fun & easy to make…that she made 7 of them! The bags are lined, reversible, and washable so they are super convenient and durable to use for all of your groceries.
She chose to use our Fruit Stand by Jane Farnham collection, which is the perfect collection for a bag to take to the farmer’s market! She mixed up the prints, which made for some super fun totes – say goodbye to your plain canvas totes, when you can have one with fruits on it! ;)
Thank you so much for the fabric love, Karin!! We love your whimsy, grocery bags! You can find more from Karin on her blog, Facebook, Pinterest, and Instagram. Have an amazing weekend, everyone!
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!! :)

Hi everyone,
Happy Thursday! I hope you all are having a fabulous day. Have you been keeping up with the blog with week? We’ve been launching our Summer 2015 collections all of this week.
Time for this week’s Thankful Thursday! Today we are featuring our wonderful friends at May Arts Ribbon, whom we have been collaborating with on some upcoming blog projects. May Arts Ribbon is a ribbon company, who specialize in wonderful quality ribbons of all sorts. Starting out as a high-quality silk flowers company, they soon realized how popular their ribbons were among their customers. And thus, they slowly graduated to being a ribbon wholesaler. From decorative ribbons for crafting, lace ribbons, 100% silk ribbon, and trims & embellishments – May Arts’ ribbon are one of the best! They have endless designs, colors, and types of ribbon that you are bound to find the right one for your next project.
One of the projects they created with our Folklore Collection was a tablet case. The DIY Tablet Case is designed like a book, with a top cover to protect your tablet screen. As well, it features a pocket in the front cover for convenience, and elasticized ribbon to securely hold the tablet in place. Jenifer of Stitch, Cute, and Create was the project designer, and used coordinating red ribbon and trim to decorate the tablet case. Our favorite part was that Jenifer cut out a little birdie and flower design from the fabric, and used them to decorate the front. Such a creative idea!
We absolutely adore the project, May Arts Ribbon and Jenifer! You all rock!! You can check out the tutorial for this tablet case here. Have a great rest of the day!
Happy Sewing!
