Hi everyone,

Happy Monday! I hope you all had a fantastic weekend!! We had beautiful weather here, perfect for lots of swimming and refreshing lemonade! :)

And speaking of bright and citrus-y things, it’s time to start off our week with our Moody Monday! Today we are sharing our wonderful Pink Lemonade Collection by Ciana Bodini for Camelot Fabrics. Pink Lemonade is our punchy, happy, and sweet collection of lemons, lemons, and more lemons! Delicious lemon wedges are combined with soft hues of pink & grey to create a super fun & cheery collection. Perfect for a summer party or citrus-inspired room, our Pink Lemonade would make a beautiful quilt. fabric napkins, and apron.

Kate Spade’s Spring 2014 collection was just a color- and print-infused as usual! Among the crisp teals, pinks, and red were punches of sweet lemon prints, combined with Kate Spade’s infamous super girly style. We fell in love with this outfit – because I mean, when life gives you lemons…wear a lemon-printed dress, with a matching pair of tennis shoes, visor, and bag, right? Right! ;)

We hope you have enjoyed this week’s Moody Monday! We’d love to know what quirky prints you love to wear or would love to try. Have a sweet rest of the day!!

Happy Sewing!

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…  ♥

Hi everyone,

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!

Hi everyone,

Happy Friday!! Woo it’s just about the weekend!! We’re also hosting an Emilia FQ Bundle Giveaway on our Facebook Page, so if you haven’t entered yet, be sure to!

It’s also Fan Friday time! Today we are featuring a super sweet dress sewn by Kreated by Kate, with our Peacock Garden by Jane Farnham Collection. Katelyn Boehm, designer and creator behind Kreated by Kate, makes custom hair bows, dresses, tutus, and more for little princesses-at-heart. Her style is very feminine and sweet, which is her source of inspiration when designing and choosing fabrics for her clothing. She loves all the ruffles, all the tulle, and all the pink. Of course, we wholeheartedly think the exact same way. Hehe! ;)

One of Katelyn’s latest dresses is using a Create Kids Couture pattern – the Loretta Dress. The dress features gorgeous ruffle cap sleeves, an empire waist, and an adorable y-back detail. Loretta can also be made into a ruffled-hem maxi dress and top, but Katelyn opted for a shorter version and styled it with little cowboy boots on her daughter. SO cute! She chose our Peacock Garden collection for this dress, with the green prints as the main and some pink for the details. Such a sweet dress!!

Thank you so much, Katelyn, for the fabric love. We cannot get over how adorable your dress is, and of course, how adorable your daughter is wearing it!! And with that, have a great weekend everyone! :)

Happy Sewing!
