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… ♥

Hi everyone,

 

 

 

 

Happy Wednesday! I hope you all are having a wonderful day!!

 

We’re announcing our Winsday Giveaway winner today! Last week, we hosted our Magnolia FQ Bundle Giveaway on our Facebook Page, wanting to know which of our Summer 2015 Collections was your favorite. These are probably one of our favorite types of questions to ask, because it lets us know what you all love…and we love tallying up the winning collections at the end (stay tuned for the tallied list!). We have our guesses of the “top 3”, so we’re excited to see who is right. And now *drum roll please*…the winner is…

Hi everyone,

 

 

 

 

Happy Tuesday! I hope you all are having a great day so far. If there’s a food holiday, you know we’re going to share about it. Today happens to be National Chocolate Chip Day. Well I guess we’ll have to eat some chocolate chip cookies then, in doing our part to celebrate the day ;)

 

Time for this week’s How To’s Day! Today we are sharing a beautiful tutorial for our Box Trot Quilt, designed by the incredibly talented Chris Hoover of Whirligig Designs. The box-like pieces in our Box Trot Quilt are perfect for highlighting a multitude of different fabric patterns, overall giving a very fun and whimsical look. Each “box” is bordered, which we chose to keep neutral and uniform with the background in the quilt below. We chose to feature our Beach House by Jack!e McFee collection, mixing the coral and tide colorways for a relaxing ocean feel. We love how the bright colors pop against the white background; such a modern and feminine quilt!

Hi everyone,

 

 

 

 

Hope you all had a fantastic weekend! What did you all get up to? Any fun sewing projects that you’ve been working on?

 

Time for our Moody Monday! Today we are featuring our Beach House Collection by Jack!e McFee. The Beach House Collection is a gorgeous two colorway collection of coral and tide blue, inspired by the beautiful ocean. This collection includes classic floral patterns, as well as beach glass, seashell, and starfish prints, that will instantly make you feel like you are right on the beach. Some simple tabbed curtains or these cool venn place mats will give your place a beach house feel, without being anywhere near the water!

Victoria Beckham’s Spring 2015 collection was effortless and cool, with its tailored suits, belted dresses, and clean lines. Her chosen color palette was mainly neutrals – black, beige, burgundy – with a punch of color with her coral floral pattern. We thought it was a super fun design, which was also reminiscent of our Beach House Collection. Whatever Victoria Beckham does, we know it will be on-trend and fabulous, and her Spring 2015 collection does that justice.

 

 

We hope we have inspired you with today’s post! We’d love to know what your favorite thing about the beach is – is it the calming sound of the waves? Or maybe building sandcastles with your little ones? Beach time = happy times. Have a wonderful day!
