Welcome!

Hi everyone,

Happy Wednesday!! We hope everyone is having a wonderful day so far. We’re glad to be indoors today – the snow has officially come upon us, and we are getting LOTS of it this week. It’s beautiful to look at…but from inside though, haha. We love ourselves a winter wonderland, cozied up with some hot cocoa and warm socks.

Hi everyone,

Happy Thursday! We hope everyone is having a wonderful day!! Have you entered our Fresh Solids Giveaway yet? We’d love to know what your favorite Fresh Solid color is. You can enter here if you haven’t! :)

It’s time for this week’s Thankful Thursday!! Today we are featuring one of our lovely project designers, Melissa Stramel of Lilac Lane Patterns! Melissa Stramel is a lover of all things floral! Whether it is tending to her garden, flower arrangement, or creating with floral fabrics, Melissa is always up for the challenge. While staying at home and sewing for her children, Melissa decided to combine her love for fabric & creating patterns by starting a business called Lilac Lane Patterns. After its success, Lilac Lane grew into a store in her hometown of Colby, Kansas called Creations Gallery. A pharmacist by training, Melissa has found the industry that encapsulates her skills and her loves perfectly! Melissa creates and sells her patterns under Lilac Lane, has a blog, and also has published a book! A very busy gal, indeed!

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Melissa of Lilac Lane Patterns for a couple of projects for our Free Projects Program. Melissa has such a creative mind, and created some really unique patterns for us. The first project is her Butterfly Quilt, which has a very cool, scrappy look with adorable little “butterflies” in the quilt design. We absolutely adore it with our Botanical by Alisse Courter Collection. As well, her genius “The Sky is Falling” Table Runner with our Fruit Stand by Jane Farnham Collection is so modern and fun!

We want to thank Melissa for the incredible patterns for our Free Projects Program!! You can find the free tutorials for the Butterfly Quilt and The Sky is Falling Table Runner on our website. As well, you can find more from Melissa on her website, blog, Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, and Etsy. Have a good one, everyone!

Happy Sewing!

It’s Wednesday, which means it’s time to announce our Winsday winner! Last week, we announced our Beyond the Backyard FQB x Westcott Giveaway on our Facebook Page and had such positive responses. We are so thrilled you loved our collection and had fun writing your entries! We had just as much fun reading all of your responses; they made us even more excited about the fall weather. Fall truly is a magical season; lots of family time, cuddling, and yummy food!! A huge thank you to Westcott for providing such awesome prizes for our Winsday. And thank you to everyone who participated. And now, the winner of this week’s Winsday is…

Hi everyone!

Happy Thursday! We hope everyone is having a terrific day so far. We cannot believe that we are in the last few days of August, but are excited for the long weekend.

For this week’s Thankful Thursday, we are featuring one of newest, favourite sewing magazines: Love Patchwork & Quilting. Love Patchwork & Quilting is a modern quilting magazine based in the UK dedicated to bringing us fresh, inspiring, and bold projects. They’re a relatively new magazine (they are on their 11th edition), but have quickly become number one in the UK – with good reason! They love to showcase new, fresh fabric collections and collaborate with awesome project designers.

As you turn to each page, there’s always something to catches your eye and inspire you. Their pages are filled with beautiful images, helpful tips & tricks, inspiring projects and fabric collections. There’s something for everyone, from quilting projects to smaller project ideas; even those who are intimidated by sewing will feel encouraged. As well, each issue features a free, mini project to follow along to, to make your very own craft. You can’t help but get inspired and happy flipping through an issue of Love Patchwork & Quilting, and their editor Jenny Fox-Proverbs definitely makes that happen!

We were so thrilled when we saw that our Love Letters by Jane Farnham Collection was featured in their latest edition, in their Love Life section, which is dedicated to celebrating the fabric of life. If you flip to page 13, you’ll see a very familiar collection – Love Letters! There’s a fantastic writeup on the collection, and we are so happy that it was chosen as one of their favorites this month. Our Love Letters Collection embodies cherishing your loved ones, and embracing your time with them, so we definitely think it fits perfectly with the theme.

We want to say a big thank you to Jenny and Love Patchwork & Quilting for featuring our Love Letters by Jane Farnham Collection. Love Patchwork & Quilting is a stunning magazine, so we definitely feel honored to be included. We absolutely adore Jane and her beautiful designs, and are so happy to call her one of our own, so it’s so wonderful to see the amazing response.

You can check out more from Love Patchwork & Quilting on their website, Facebook, Pinterest, and Twitter. We can’t wait to see what’s next! Have a fantastic day, everyone!

Happy Sewing!
