Welcome!

Hi everyone,

Happy Thursday! I hope you all are having a lovely day!

Time for this week’s Thankful Thursday! We wanted to share a couple more Quilt Market projects that were sewn for us, for our booth. We were connected with Larissa Gibbs – a wonderful blogger and pattern designer – this year, and she sewed three projects for our Quilt Market With Love section. The first project we chose for With Love is the Seamwork’s Adelaide dress – a casual tank dress with a waist-tie. We decided the vintage-inspired scrolls print would be perfect for this dress!

The next is Swoon Pattern’s Blanche Barrel bag, which with With Love by Jack!e McFee, makes for a very sweet and feminine gym or shopping tote. The final project was a bow clutch, pattern by ConstructivePatterns. We chose the fun hearts print for this one, and matched with the funky bow detail, love how it turned out!!

Thank you so much, Larissa! You did an amazing job, and it was so great working with you!! Here’s to many, more fun projects :) Have a fantastic day!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Tuesday! I hope everyone is having a great day. Have you entered our Nordic FQB Giveaway yet? Be sure to enter here!

Time for this week’s How To’s Day! Today we are featuring our Peaks & Valleys Table Runner by Melissa Corry of Happy Quilting Designs. The Peaks & Valleys Table Runner is a simple, but elegant table runner that will add a fun pop to your dining or living room table. The “zig-zag” designs are made up of smaller triangles to resemble peaks & valleys, while the clean white space makes it an easy mixing piece with your current decor. How pretty does it look with the color colorway of our Beach House by Jack!e McFee collection? Gorg!

We also had this table runner made up for our Quilt Market Mickey Mouse & Friends section. We adore how the bright, primary colors look together. Shannon Fraser did such an amazing job!

Hi everyone,

Happy Thursday! I hope you all are having a lovely day. Chilly, gloomy, mid-November day… but it’s almost the weekend! ;)

Time for this week’s Thankful Thursday! Today we are featuring a couple of projects we had sewn for our Fall Quilt Market booth. One of our favorite quilters, and fellow Montrealer, Stephanie Baldwin quilted one quilt and sewed two bags for our booth. And, as always, Stephanie did an a-MAZ-ing job. The two bags were done with our new Flourish by Ciana Bodini collection, a gorgeous green and pink floral collection. The first is the Sienna Tote by  lbg studio. We chose the darker floral for the body, which contrasted nicely with the mint green gingham handles and bottom. The other bag is the Della Wallet Clutch by Swoon Patterns. We love how pretty this clutch came out, and would make for a perfect Christmas gift!

As well, Stephanie quilted our Cracker Lattice Quilt with our With Love by Jack!e McFee collection. We had never seen the physical version of the quilt, so we were especially excited to see this one. The pink and tan heart & floral prints worked wonderfully in this quilt design… we always love Stephanie’s quilting! It was the perfect backdrop to our With Love section.

Thank you SO much, Stephanie, for creating such stunning projects for our Fall Quilt Market booth. We are always so ecstatic to see the projects you sew for us (almost as exciting as Christmas morning)! If you want to make your own With Love/Cracker Lattice quilt – click here for the free pattern. Have a marvelous rest of the day!

Hi everyone,

Happy Monday! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend!! Have you entered our Make a Wish Giveaway yet? Be sure to head on over to our Facebook Page to enter.

Time for this week’s Moody Monday! Today we are featuring our With Love by Jack!e McFee collection. With Love is a soft and feminine collection of luscious floral, damask, and heart prints in a brown sugar and blush pink colorway. The colors together create a wonderful warmth and elegance, that would look beautiful as a subdued pop of print, in any interior space.

Marchesa Notte’s Spring 2016 collection was luxurious and boldly floral-infused. From bright fuchsia and royal blue to softer pinks and caramel tones, this collection was full of statement pieces! Marchesa is known for lots of bedazzlement and floral, and this collection definitely impresses! We especially loved this dress – the damask print reminiscent of our With Love by Jack!e McFee collection.

We hope you have been inspired by today’s post! We’d love to know what you think of the collections. Have a fantastic rest of the day!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Friday!! I hope you all are having a fantastic end to the week :) We’re hosting an incredible Little Bird Giveaway this week, so be sure to enter here!

On to our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring a beautiful bag with our Opposite’s Attract by Jack!e McFee collection, sewn by fellow Canadian Reece Montgomery of Happy Okapi. She used Swoon Sewing Pattern’s Sandra Saddle Bag pattern, and chose to highlight the black & white ogee print. As an accent, she chose a black leather for the sides and closure. The large gold rings add a fun twist, as well as the interior turquoise pop. This is the perfect bag to take on a shopping trip or apple picking adventure – large enough to hold all your necessities, but comfortable to carry around. What a great bag!!

Thank you so much, Reece, for the fabric love. We are so thrilled you enjoyed working with our Opposite’s Attract by Jack!e McFee collection! You can find more from Reece on Instagram and on her blog. Have a great weekend, everyone!!

Happy Sewing!
