Welcome!

Hi everyone,

Happy Friday!! It’s the end of the week! We are looking forward to staying IN this weekend..soso cold. It was definitely a trek coming into the office this morning with the blowing snow and -30C temperatures – BRR!

Ending our week with our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring a lovely pillow with our Let’s Go by Andrea Turk Collection. Fili & Lino is a blog by two crafty girls who met through the interwebs! We love that!! Together they created a blog to share their passion for crafting & sewing. They feature fantastic tutorials, their latest project adventures, and have an Etsy Shop for custom orders. They also post their latest creations on Instagram, where we saw their Let’s Go Pillow. Instant joy from us! We adore the feather print in our Let’s Go Collection, and think it looks fantastic as an accent pillow. Perfect for accessorizing a bed or tub chair!

Thanks so much for the tag, girls! We’re obsessed with your Let’s Go pillow and think you have a lovely blog. You can find more from Fili & Lino on their blog, Facebook Page, Twitter, and Instagram. And that’s about it for this week. Have a wonderful weekend!! :)

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Friday! Woot woot for it being the end of the week! We’ve made it through our first week of February…it can only get better (weather wise!) from here. Cold fingers and toes crossed!

Time to end our week with our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring some awesome Beyond the Backyard projects made by Reece Montgomery. We were tagged on Instagram by Reece, and when we saw her pictures, we had a “oh-my-good-so-cute” moment lol. We absolutely adore the projects that Reece decided to create with our floral and leaf, Spring-inspired collection. She also featured these projects on her blog, Happy Okapi, which you can check out here. In addition to sharing her projects on her blog, she is Canadian-based (like us!!) and shares upcoming fabric collections & sales!

She used Swoon Sewing Patterns’ Dorothy Day Tripper pattern to create a stunning Beyond the Backyard bag – the pattern that actually features our Design Studio Collection as its front image! She also made some other cool accessories with Beyond the Backyard – a coffee cozie, a couple of key fobs, and an eyeglasses pouch. We love how versatile our collection is, and that it looks so great in each project!!

Thanks so much, Reece, for the tag! You can find more from Reece on her blog and Instagram. And with that, we are ready to rock this weekend! Have a great one, everyone!! :)

Hi everyone,

Happy Friday!! We hope you all are having a brilliant end to the week. Know what we’re craving today? Flaky, buttery croissants. YUM! And it just so happens to be National Croissant Day. So down for one, or some, haha. We are also hosting our Elixir FQ Bundle Giveaway on our Facebook Page, so you can enter here.

It’s time for this week’s Fan Friday! Today we are featuring a darling quilt we found on Instagram by Jessica Ewing of Always a Crafty Lady. Jessica started her blog, Always a Crafty Lady, at the start of 2015 – a goal to share her handmade projects & inspirations, after seeing the tag “A Year of Making” going around on Instagram. From quilts to clothing for her adorable girls, Jessica shares her passion for handmade items on her blog and gives her experience/tips with each project.

Jessica chose our Fairyville Collection for her super sweet Fairies Quilt that she made as a nap blanket for her daughter. She used a quilt pattern she found on Cluck Cluck Sew. It was also her first time machine quilting, first time binding a quilt, and first time sewing with minky. And the best part? Her daughter adores it!! She also made a second quilt using another of our Heather Rosas’ collections, Folklore.

We are so in love with your Fairies Quilt, Jessica, and are so glad you love our Fairyville Collection. You can check more from Jessica on her blog and Instagram. And if you’re loving our Fairyville Collection, you can check it out here. Have a fantastic weekend, everyone!

Hi everyone,

Happy Friday!! Hope everyone had a fantastic week – we’re excited for the weekend though! Today happens to be one of our favorite days…National Pie Day. YUM!! Apple pie, pecan pie, strawberry rhubarb pie, key-lime pie…yup, we could go on haha, but it’s just making us want pie even more! :)

Ending our week with our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring a super awesome What’s Cookin’ project from Shanna of This Joyful Home. In 2005, Shanna noticed the limited selection of baby carriers available, and even so, were uncomfortable. She decided to use her own experiences with baby carriers to make her own design. Thus, her business Sweet Slings, LLC was born! In 2007, she moved and again found herself searching for products of limited supply or style. She decided to expand her product line to wet bags for cloth diapers, coordinating kitchen cloths, table runners, burlap mats, and more, and is relaunched as This Joyful Home.

Shanna used our What’s Cookin’ Collection for her Wet Bags, and we love it! They are perfect for hanging in a nursery or kitchen to easy put cloth diapers into, and come with accompanying wet cloths. Our What’s Cookin’ Collection make the bags modern and fun, so they look pretty hanging in a room vs. being an eyesore. Great choice, Shanna! :)

Thank you so much, Shanna, for the fabric love! We are so happy you love our What’s Cookin’ Collection for your Wet Bags. We adore the idea! You can find more from Shanna from her Etsy Shop andFacebook Page. Have a fantastic weekend, everyone!

Happy Sewing!
