Welcome!

Time for our What We Love #60 ♥ This week, we have very much been inspired by travel, culture, and wonders. Such as the gorgeous city of Bilbao (where one of our designers, Val, had the pleasure of visiting!) to the Feria de Las Flores – a floral festival in Colombia, there is an abundance of culture and brilliance to be explored around us. See what else we have been loving this week… ♥

Hope you feel inspired today! We’d love to know what has been inspiring you. Sometimes we forget to tell our favorite people how much they mean to us, so today, tell those favorite people how dearly you love them. They’ll feel the love, and so will you ♥ 

Time for this week’s What We Love ♥ This week, our Pinterest board has been inspired by lots of pretty blue and pink hues. As well, quotes – and more quotes. Like the “perfect song to fit your mood”, quotes can do just the same. When you’re feeling down, sometimes just hearing or reading an inspiring quote can motivate you or lift up your spirits. Or, there are those awesome times when you find a quote that is just gets you. Those are the best. See what else we have been loving…  ♥

I hope you have enjoyed this week’s What We Love. We’d love know what has been inspiring you as of late. And as always, lots more to be inspired by on our Pinterest ♥

Hi everyone,

Happy Tuesday! I hope you all are having a wonderful day so far. It’s the last day to enter our Emilia FQ Bundle Giveaway, so head on over to our Facebook Page to enter!

It’s How To’s Day! Today’s tutorial is for a super pretty Bias Trimmed Pillow Sham by Marion of Made by Marion. This bias trimmed pillow sham is a fun twist on your basic pillow cover. Its diagonal design gives the pillow a modern feel, along with the trim detailing and easy back zipper closure. Make two (or more!) and spruce up your bed space – goodbye boring pillow cases, hello gorgeous pillow shams! We chose to feature our Emilia Collection, with its lovely purple and grey hues, which makes for a very feminine and soft look.

Hi everyone,

Happy Monday! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. It was HOT here, but we also unfortunately had some rain. Rain + humidity = not so fun :( How was everyone else’s weekend?

It’s time for this week’s Moody Monday! And in lieu of launching our Summer 2015 Collections last week, today we are featuring our Under the Sea by Heather Rosas Collection. Under the Sea is our fun and whimsical collection of beautiful mermaids, adorable sea creatures, and super-neat scale prints. From the cheery crabs to the happy fishies, this collection brings us all of the things we love most about the ocean in its coral, green, and aqua hues! We could imagine a little one’s mermaid costume, complete with her own mermaid tail or an “under the sea” inspired bedroom, complete with mermaid pillows and a cozy crab quilt.

Peruvian designer Jessica Butrich’s Spring 2014 collection was very much inspired by the beach. With its cool seafoam and coral colors, effortless crop tops and high-waisted bottoms, and pretty nautical stripes – we could imagine wearing all of her outfits on our next cruise or Mediterranean vacation! We especially adored the design and colors  on this top, which was reminiscent of our beloved crab print. An absolutely stunning outfit! You can also check out the rest of the collection here.

We hope you have enjoyed today’s post! We’d love to know what your ideal vacation would be, and what your dream suitcase would hold inside. We’re going to keep dreaming, haha. Have a great day!

Happy Sewing!
