Hi everyone!

Happy Monday! We hope everyone had a fantastic weekend. Did anyone work on any fun projects? :) We have also hosting our Itty Bitty FQB x Aurifil Giveaway this week on our Facebook – be sure to enter HERE if you haven’t yet :)

It’s time for this week’s Moody Monday! We’re featuring one of our incredible licenses this week…our Ultimate Spider-Man II Collection by the Camelot Design Studio. This one is for all of our Marvel and Spidie fans – a collection of the iconic red and blue colors that showcase our main man brilliantly. Encapsulated in vivacious blue and red, Ultimate Spider-Man II features Spidie to the rescue, and of course using his iconic spiderweb.  All of the designs in our Ultimate Spider-Man II collection are great for a little (or not so little) man’s bedroom – imagine some Spider-man pillows and curtains, finished by an awesome blue- and red-infused quilt…perfect for a little superhero-in-training!

We were inspired by the classic red and blue colors in our Ultimate Spider-Man II Collection, and Dior’s Fall 2014 RTW Collection encapsulates a very futuristic and superhero-esque feel. We absolutely adore that this collection is color-focused, using bright and bolder colors as opposed to letting patterns voice the collection. We love color-blocking, and Dior’s collection does this brilliantly. Of course, we were inspired by the red and blue outfit (Spider-Man colors!)…two colors that you wouldn’t necessary put together in an outfit, but look fantastic! You can check out the full Dior Fall 2014 collection here.

We hope our Moody Monday has inspired you today; sometimes taking a chance and putting together two colors that you think might not work will create something new and fantastic. Have a good one, everyone! :)

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone!

Happy Monday!! We hope everyone had a great and restful weekend! Did anyone do anything fun? :) Here’s to another fantastic week!! If you haven’t seen our latest tutorial, you definitely should! We shared our adorable (and relatively simple) Macarons Pillows Tutorial last week. Be sure to check it out HERE!

It’s time for this week’s Moody Monday. Today we are featuring a sophisticated, modern, and classic collection…Kate by Camelot Design Studio! Kate is a collection of grapefruit, indigo, and chartreuse tones that encapsulates a very warm and rustic vibe. The ogee, tiled, lattice, and chevron patterns add a playful touch to this otherwise sleek collection. Kate calls for a dressed-up affair – a rooftop 5 a 7 or garden party…you are ready for anything! Any of the designs in this collection would look stunning as a simple shift dress, a necktie, or a couple of pillows to add some flair to your living space. The possibilities are endless! :)

The color palette of Kate makes for an especially polished and refined feel, and this outfit that Jessica Biel sports definitely resembles just that. Jessica Biel is a very reserved actress, with very scant highlights in the press (which is a good thing!). Her demure sophistication is definitely displayed in her modern eggplant and coral ensemble. The dual tones of coral/tangerine tones add for a very pretty monochromatic look…which she completed with a complementary eggplant-hued jacket, bag, and pair of heels. This outfit gives a very similar feel to our Kate collection, in both tones and feel. Such a lovely look…great job, Jessica! You can check out the full Kate Collection HERE! :)

We hope you have enjoyed this week’s Moody Monday and have been inspired…to wear a monochromatic look, or just a pop of eggplant of coral in your look. Have a great day, everyone! :)

Happy Sewing!
