Welcome!

Hi everyone,

Happy Tuesday! I hope you all are having a great day. It’s the last day to enter our Star Wars: The Force Awakens Giveaway on our Facebook Page.

Time for today’s How To’s Day! This week, we are featuring one of our free quilt patterns – Border Blast by The Quilted Button. The Border Blast is a fun play on different types of borders to create a quilt pattern , including checkered rectangles and different width-ed borders. We chose to keep this one simple (though it also looks great with our designs – such as with our What a Gem Collection) by using our Fresh Solids. Different shades of blues and purples combine to create this bold and blocked quilt.

Hi everyone,

Happy Tuesday! I hope everyone had a relaxing, long weekend. Did anyone work on any fun new (or WIP) projects?

It’s time for our How To’s Day! Today we are sharing one of our free quilt patterns, our Farm Stand Quilt by Anne Sullivan of Play Crafts. Farm Stand is a very cool and clean quilt pattern, featuring “columns” of fabric separated by a solid. We chose to have our Star Wars: The Force Awakens collection made up in this quilt, and absolutely adore the linear, ombred effect created with the many, different designs. Melissa Dunworth of Sew Bitter Sweet Designs quilted the quilt for us, and are obsessed with her quilt work! Thanks, Melissa… SOO much!

Hi everyone,

Happy Tuesday! I hope everyone is having a wonderful First of September!! It’s also the last day to enter our Flannel FQB Giveaway, so if you haven’t yet, gogogo and enter!

Let’s start off the day with our How To’s Day! Today we are featuring our Tumbling Jewels Quilt by The Cloth Parcel, the wonderful mother-daughter design team. The Tumbling Jewels Quilt is a gorgeous quilt design, composed of lots of different sized triangles and squares to create a “jeweled” effect. We love the randomness of how the shapes are placed, but together, create a super cool and neat pattern. We have fun playing around with this quilt pattern, and loved how it turned out with our Nordic Collection. The grey tones, muted pink, and black prints look so good together in this quilt.

Hi everyone,

Happy Thursday! I hope you all are having a wonderful day!! Today is National Lemonade Day, and what a perfect day for it to be… a cool, refreshing glass of lemonade is just what we need on this hot day!

It’s time for our Thankful Thursday! One of the coolest “retail shop” ideas we’ve seen… we bring to you Trailer Stash Fabrics! Just as the name suggests, this fabric shop is housed in a restored, Vintage 1963 Shasta 1900 Deluxe Travel Trailer. It doesn’t get any more awesome than that! Owner, Gina Allen, also has an Etsy Shop that she sells fabric and quilt kits. But a couple of times a month, Gina will stock up her trailer with her favorite fabrics, and head to different pop-up sales & sewing workshops.

She will also create quilt samples to showcase the fabrics on her trailer… and most recently, she had one created with one of our fabrics… and with one of our free quilt patterns! She chose our Crossroads by Jessie Kurtz quilt pattern, with our bright and fun Paradise Collection by Alisse Courter. It looks absolutely stunning, even before it has been quilted!

She also had one created with our Darling Collection, using our Plus Sized Free Quilt Pattern.

The quilt pattern is available on our website here, and you can also find complete quilt kits at her Etsy Shop. Thank you so much, Gina, for the fabric and quilt pattern love!! Be sure to check out Trailer Stash Fabrics, to see where she may be headed next. Have an awesome day!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Tuesday! I hope you all are having a great day so far. If there’s a food holiday, you know we’re going to share about it. Today happens to be National Chocolate Chip Day. Well I guess we’ll have to eat some chocolate chip cookies then, in doing our part to celebrate the day ;)

Time for this week’s How To’s Day! Today we are sharing a beautiful tutorial for our Box Trot Quilt, designed by the incredibly talented Chris Hoover of Whirligig Designs. The box-like pieces in our Box Trot Quilt are perfect for highlighting a multitude of different fabric patterns, overall giving a very fun and whimsical look. Each “box” is bordered, which we chose to keep neutral and uniform with the background in the quilt below. We chose to feature our Beach House by Jack!e McFee collection, mixing the coral and tide colorways for a relaxing ocean feel. We love how the bright colors pop against the white background; such a modern and feminine quilt!
