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!

Hi everyone,

Happy Fri-YAY!! We hope you all are having a great day. We are definitely looking forward to the weekend. Woot woot! We’re also giving away a Coraline FQ bundle this week, so be sure to head on over to our Facebook Page to enter.

It’s time to our week with our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring some stunning dresses made by Lucy Made, with our Beyond the Backyard by Jane Farnham Collection. Lucy Made is a blog by a creative gal named Lucy, who shares her love affair for fabric, wool, and sewing on her blog. She is inspired by color and pattern, creating with a sewing machine named Daphne – how fantastic! 

Lucy Made made a couple of Geranium dresses (by madebyrae) for her friend’s little girls, using our Beyond the Backyard by Jane Farnham Collection, and they are just the sweetest. Big sister got a tunic-style dress with cap-sleeves and pockets, featuring a more bold, floral print from Beyond the Backyard. A sleeveless option, with a fuller skirt and a pink design, was chosen for the little sister. Both are just as adorable, and we hope the girls enjoyed their new outfits as much as we do! Lucy did such an amazing job making these dresses…we wish there were adult sizes in these hehe.

We also had a Geranium Dress made up in-house, with our Pastel Me More Collection, so we thought we’d also share it here. This dress truly is so versatile, and looks uber cute in both bold and soft prints.

Thank you so much, Lucy, for the fabric love!! We found your adorable dresses on Jane Farnham’s blog and just had to share. Too much cuteness!! (ps: congrats on the bundle on the way!) You can find more from Lucy on her blog, twitter, and flickr. Have an amazing weekend, everyone!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Thursday! Hope everyone is having an awesome day so far!! Did you know we’re giving away our Coraline FQ Bundle Giveaway on our Facebook Page? Spring-inspired, be sure to head on over there to enter!

Time for our Thankful Thursday! Today we are featuring one of our absolute favorite quilting magazines, Love Patchwork & Quilting. Full of modern projects and fabulous color inspiration, Love Patchwork & Quilting is bringing on a new wave to the quilting world. No longer a hobby that is seen as “uncool”, quilting has definitely taken a new direction into being a fun, fresh, and creative craft. There is so much that can be created in quilting – not just your standard square patchworks – and Love Patchwork & Quilting is the place to find that inspiration. Based in the UK, this modern quilting magazine features favorite fabric collections, unique project patterns, and so much more!

Love Patchwork & Quilting has featured our fabrics in a couple of their issues – it’s always fun finding our fabric, like a mini “where’s waldo?”. In their holiday issue, they featured our Peacock Garden by Jane Farnham collection in their “Love Fabric” section. It was so wonderful seeing the beautiful pink and mint-inspired spread. They included a little write-up on Peacock Garden, with love to the crisp color palette and the sweet peacock designs.

Thank you so much to Love Patchwork & Quilting for the amazing feature. We are so thrilled you continue to enjoy our fabrics! You can find more from Love Patchwork & Quilting on their website, Facebook Page, Pinterest, and Twitter. They’ve even got an app now. And with that, have a lovely day everyone!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Tuesday! We hope you are having a lovely day. We forgot to mention that yesterday was National Puppy Day, and wanted to give a shout-out to our favorite little snuggles. We adore you!

Time for this week’s How To’s Day! Today we are featuring one of our quilt patterns from our Free Projects Program, our Crossroads Quilt by Harding Hill Designs. Crossroads is an intricate, but stunning quilt design that is composed of a multitude of half square triangles (HSTs) sewn together. Together they intertwine to create an absolutely beautiful “cross” design, the centerpiece of the whole quilt. Because of the complexity of Crossroads, it would be a showstopper as a bed quilt or wall design. All the intricate work would be absolutely worth it. Promise. As well, it looks amazing with our vivacious Gypsy Lane by Jane Farnham Collection!

This one is for all you enthused quilters!! Want to make your own Crossroads Quilt? Click MORE for the full instructions.
