Welcome!

Hi everyone,

Happy Tuesday! We hope you are all having a great day – it’s National Pastry Day…which means we should probably get ourselves some yummy treats. I mean, it’s a national holiday…so we have to, right? ;) We’ll take an apple and cheese turnover, with extra whipped cream please!

Time for this week’s How To’s Day! Today we are featuring a super stylish tutorial for our Twin Pillows. Changing up your pillows, whether it be your couch or bed pillows, are one of the easiest and least expensive ways to add some new flair to a space. We love rotating pillows for the different seasons and holidays, as it gives us a fun opportunity to decorate often, while being budget-friendly. Making your own pillows also allows you to choose the designs and colors you want so that the decor you’ve envisioned can come to life…

We adore our Twin Pillows Tutorial because they are unique, modern, and you create (for those who like quicker projects) two pillows from one tutorial. We also provide two different versions in the tutorial, so you can mix it up and have an array of beautiful pillows for your home! We love it with our Opposites Attract by Jackie McFee collection, because the white and black prints can be incorporated into just about any decor.

Hi everyone!

Happy Monday! We hope you all had a restful and fun weekend, working on some crafty projects or just taking it easy. If you’re looking for a new project, be sure to check out all of our latest How To’s Day! We’ve got some pretty fantastic in-house and outsourced projects, such as our Teeny Tiny Play Set and Felt Citrus Party Tags.

To help start off this week, we’ve got our Moody Monday! Today we are inspiring you with our Opposites Attract by Jackie McFee, from Summer 2014. This may be a collection of basic colors, but our Opposites Attract Collection is anything but simple. The lively and cheerful designs make these two neutral colors pop and dance on the fabric! This collection includes intricate chevron, floral, dot, scroll, and geometric patterns – who says black and white has to be boring? ;) We love the idea of a black, white, or black & white outfit with a pop of color in the accessories, or vice versa. We think our foldover wedding clutch is the perfect chic accessory for any upcoming party, and a black & white quilt is SO modern. We absolutely adore the look of our Elevation pillow in black & white prints too!

Black and white are SO chic! There is something so elegant about a simple black and white ensemble. Because the color palette is limited, you’re left to play with different patterns and textures to add interest to your outfit. One designer that particular reminds us of Opposites Attract is Ralph Lauren‘s Spring 2014 Collection. Lauren’s collection is a mix of colors, but the ensembles that we particularly loved are the black & white ones…of course haha. We LOVED the floral and chevron patterns, and the cool mix of prints in one outfit. Lauren knows how to have fun with fashion, and this collection definitely showed that. When a designer can create a fabulous outfit with limited colors, they are brilliant…and Lauren definitely is! You can check out the full collection HERE.

We hope we have inspired you with this week’s Moody Monday! You can check out the full collection for Opposites Attract here. Let us know your favorite way to wear black, white, or black and white! Have a great day!! :)

Happy Sewing!

It’s the LAST DAY of our Summer 2014 Collections Launch Week!! We hope that you have been enjoying the four collections we have launched this week: Paddington Bear, It’s a Birds’ Life, London Fog, and Pastel Me More!! We’d love to know what you think and which is your favorite. Be sure to check out the full collections on our website, as well as their coordinating free projects and blog posts.

The last collection that we are going to share with you for Summer 2014 is our Opposites Attract by Jackie McFee Collection! Opposites Attract is striped down to the ‘basics’ of black and white – two colors that may be overlooked when it comes to ‘what your favorite color is’, but are the most used and loved. Black and white are minimalist and simple colors, but together create a very classic and modern feel in our Opposites Attract Collection. Using the basics, it allows you to be more creative and have more fun when it comes to texture, design, and patterns; our Opposite’s Attract does just that, letting its patterns speak for themselves.

We love wearing a black or white outfit, and then adding a pop of color in our accessories or shoes…or wearing a bright colored dress and toning it down with a black & white clutch. We love the idea of a black and white quilt, table runner, or pillow, because it allows you to have fun with your room decor and your quilt will always match! We absolutely adore this Diamond Sparkle Quilt by The Quilted Button with our Opposites Attract Collection.

We really hope you like our Opposites Attract by Jackie McFee Collection!! What is your favorite color? Check out all the free projects and complete collection on our website. And, be sure to check out our Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter for lots more. We hope we have enjoyed our Summer 2014 Collections Launch Week!! We’d love to know which is your favorite :)
