Welcome!

Hi everyone,

Happy Friday! I hope you all are having a fantastic day!! There is still time to enter our Star Wars: The Force Awakens Giveaway if you haven’t yet.

Ending our week with our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring a beautiful hexagon quilt by Annika, with our Gypsy Lane by Jane Farnham Collection. Annika created this quilt without a pattern – what a brave soul she is! She had a ton of fun making the hexagons and then piecing the quilt together, having the element of surprise ahead of her. But in the end, everything came out wonderfully and Annika loves her new quilt… which also happens to be her first one! We are sooo impressed. She chose our Gypsy Lane collection, alternating the different prints to create a cool honeycomb look!

What a lovely quilt, Annika! We can’t believe this is your first quilt either, and that you did it freehand. Amazing job!! And thank you for Gypsy Lane fabric love. Have an amazing weekend!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Wednesday! I hope you all are doing well today. It has been SO hot this week – waking up to 24°C/75°F (plus humidity!) has not been super fun, but at least it’s nice & sunny!

This week, we hosted a Gypsy Lane FQ Bundle Giveaway on our Facebook Page, and in line with our latest collections launch, we asked you what your favorite Spring 2015 collection was. From Star Wars: Immortals to Green with Envy, we saw them all – and it was so fun to read which were favorites! (And, stay tuned for a tally of the results too).

Thank you to everyone who took the time to enter our giveaway!! We had a blast, and hope you did  too. But, there could only be one winner… and the winner of our Gypsy Lane FQ bundle is:

Hi everyone,

Happy Thursday! I hope you are all having a fabulous day!! Today is National Oatmeal Cookie Day…YUM! A soft oatmeal, chocolate chip (with walnuts & shredded coconut, if I’m feelin’ fancy haha) is my ideal cookie. And because it’s a national holiday, it’s only right that I eat one (or three), right? ;)

It’s Thursday, so you know what that means on the blog. It’s Thankful Thursday time!! Today we are featuring one of our pattern designers, Veronica Koh Eischeid of Veronica Made, Veronica designed a fabulous pillow pattern for us called Modern Cross. The pillow features a cool star-esque pattern in the middle – keeping it the focal point of the design. Mixing and matching different colours and patterns is what makes this pillow fun, and keeping the background neutral makes it pop! It is available as a free pattern on our website here.

One of the collections we will be showcasing at Spring Quilt Market is our Gypsy Lane by Jane Farnham Collection, and thought the Modern Cross pillow would look fabulous with it. And we were definitely not wrong! The Modern Cross pillow’s look matches perfectly with our boho-inspired collection, and would look really good against a white couch. Veronica did such an awesome job bringing her Modern Cross pillow to life.

We want to thank Veronica for creating such a stunning pillow design for us, and for making it for us for Quilt Market. It’s going to look fab. You can find the PDF printout for Modern Cross on our website. Find more from Veronica at her blog and Etsy Shop. Have a lovely day!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Monday!! We hope you all had a wonderful weekend! We have been hosting our Coraline FQ Bundle Giveaway on our Facebook Page this week, so be sure to enter!! :)

It’s also time to kick off another great week with our Moody Monday! Today we are featuring our Gypsy Lane by Jane Farnham Collection, a fresh and bright collection to inspire us into the warmer months. Gypsy Lane is full of vivacious hues: bright pink, orange, and turquoise take center-stage in gorgeous floral and dragonfly prints. The lively prints are happy and fun, and would brighten up any space or project. We adore the idea of a Gypsy Lane clutch or skirt; you will definitely be a standout amongst the crowd, in the best way. Add a punch of color to any neutral room with some Gypsy Lane throw pillows or a quirky quilt, for some added pizazz.

Aquilano Rimondi’s Spring RTW 2015 Collection was very fresh and earthy, definitely reminiscent of everything we love about Spring. Chiffon-y materials, light colors, and beautiful flowers dressed each model to create feminine silhouettes. Dragonfly, floral, and butterfly prints were among the patterns Rimondi used, to create ethereal, lightweight shift dresses and skirts. We would love to wear one of the dresses and dance around in a field of flowers – that’s how this collection makes us feel. We adore this dragonfly dress, reminiscent of our dragonfly print in Gypsy Lane.

We hope we have inspired you with today’s post. We’d love to know what has been inspiring you as of late. You can find the full Gyspy Lane Collection here. Have a great day!

Happy Sewing!
