Welcome!

Happy Monday!

I hope you had a fantastic weekend and that you were able to get some time to craft or sew.

On to our Moody Monday!

On Sundays, I try to get my kids out of the city for a hike in the woods.  Yesterday we traded the hike for a meal in a Sugar Shack.  After the meal our kids were begging us to go home to their electronics, but as we were walking on the premises, we noticed that they offered horseback rides.  It was quite a surprise to see my kids mesmerized by these gracious animals.  It didn’t take too much convincing to get them to go for their very first ride.  When they got back, I noticed that the horse had a calming effect and I finally realized why so many people love horses.

This is why I have chosen to feature our Equestrian collection by our in house design Studio on our Moody Monday blog. Horse lovers will definitely want to get their hands on this collection to make crisp cotton shirts and kerchiefs.  And perhaps a tote or quilt?

Be sure to check out the full collection of Equestrian in your local quilt shop.  Click here to find the one nearest your home.

Let us know what you think of the collection and what you would make with it!  We would love to see what you have made so send us a picture for our Fan Friday blog!

Hi everyone,

Happy Monday! I hope everyone had a fantastic weekend!! :)

On to our Moody Monday! Today we are featuring our Equestrian Collection by the Camelot Design Studio. Equestrian is a neutral, warm collection of western-inspired prints in a grey, black, and brown colorway. The beautiful, noble horse prints are accompanied by pretty rosette, stripe, and arrow patterns. These strong and fun prints make for a great background to a dress or bag!

Stella McCartney’s Pre- Spring/Summer 2016 Collection was a mix of citrus hues and bold patterns. Oranges, yellows, mints, and pink flowed among this collection, complementing the neutral tones and horse-patterned & floral jumpsuits. It is a super fun collection, that definitely is inspiring us for the springtime. We were so obsessed with this jumpsuit, that was reminiscent of our Equestrian collection.

Be sure to check out the full collection of Equestrian here. Let us know what you think of it, as well as Stella McCartney’s latest collection. Have a brilliant day!

Hi everyone!

Happy Monday! I hope everyone had a lovely weekend!! :)

Starting off our week with our Moody Monday. Today we are featuring our Kaleidoscope by the Camelot Design Studio collection. Kaleidoscope is a modern and fresh collection of playful confetti, cool ikats, and gorgeous mandala prints in a purple, mint, and peach colorway. This collection takes inspiration from one of your childhood toy favorites – the kaleidoscope – with the dispersion of different colors and patterns having kept us entertained for hours. We could imagine a standout dress, with a lovely confetti effect or an awesome teen’s bedroom with Kaleidoscope decor.

Monique Lhuillier‘s Spring 2015 collection was the epitome of feminine and elegant. Her collection was full of gorgeous ball gown-styled dresses, mixed with playful textures of iridescence, metallic crinkle, beading, and tulle. We absolutely adore how she took feminine silhouettes and styles, and added a modern twist to them with texture. We especially adored this dress, with the confetti technique being reminiscent of our Kaleidoscope prints. Such a phenomenal look!

We hope we have inspired you with today’s post! We’d love to know what trends you’re excited to try for Spring. Have a great day!!

Hi everyone,

Happy Monday! I hope you all had a great weekend!! We had lots of unfortunate rain and wind… ready for Spring! ;)

And speaking of springtime, if we can’t change Mother Nature’s mind… let us be inspired by today’s Moody Monday. Today we are sharing our Bonne Nuit collection, a cozy and sweet collection of muted blue, grey, and pink hues. This collection is full of adorable sleeping bears, fluffy skies, and glowing stars – so wonderful and dreamy! So perfect for a little newborn’s nursery or as a quilt to snuggle up with on a cold, wintery night.

Mara Hoffman’s Spring/Summer 2016 collection was flowy, boho-inspired, and oh-so dreamy. The 70’s were definitely a big influence in this collection, with the jumpsuits, hairstyle, off-the-shoulder details, and maxi skirts. The color scheme was very floral and nature-inspired, bold brights against a neutral background. One of our favorites was this outfit; the sheer, star-infused look was very reminiscent of our Bonne Nuit collection. Adore!

We hope we have inspired you with today’s look. We’d love to know what you think! Have a wonderful day!

Hi everyone,

Happy Monday! I hope you all had a wonderful and love-filled holiday break!! Here’s to an amazing 2016! :)

Time for this week’s Moody Monday! Today we are featuring our Jungly by Andrea Turk for Cinnamon Joe Studio collection. Jungly is an adorable and whimsy collection of jungle animals – flamingos, loving lions, eager elephants, and more! The collection also includes playful heart and scalloped prints, in coordinating coral and mint colors. Such a sweet collection for a little girl or boy’s room – complete with some plush animal friends, and they’ll be in their own jungle!

Misha Nonoo’s Spring 2013 RTW collection is full of eclectic, bold prints and colors – from palm leaves to feminine florals. Her designs definitely remind us of springtime, especially the flowy maxi skirts and flirty mini skirts. Such a fun one! We are also fond of her flamingo printed dress, reminiscent of our Jungly collection!

We hope you enjoyed this one! We’d love to know what you are excited about for 2016!! Have a great day.

Happy Sewing!
