Welcome!

Hi everyone,

Happy Thursday! I hope you all are having a lovely day!

Time for this week’s Thankful Thursday! We wanted to share a couple more Quilt Market projects that were sewn for us, for our booth. We were connected with Larissa Gibbs – a wonderful blogger and pattern designer – this year, and she sewed three projects for our Quilt Market With Love section. The first project we chose for With Love is the Seamwork’s Adelaide dress – a casual tank dress with a waist-tie. We decided the vintage-inspired scrolls print would be perfect for this dress!

The next is Swoon Pattern’s Blanche Barrel bag, which with With Love by Jack!e McFee, makes for a very sweet and feminine gym or shopping tote. The final project was a bow clutch, pattern by ConstructivePatterns. We chose the fun hearts print for this one, and matched with the funky bow detail, love how it turned out!!

Thank you so much, Larissa! You did an amazing job, and it was so great working with you!! Here’s to many, more fun projects :) Have a fantastic day!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Thursday! I hope you all are having a fantastic day. Today is Let’s Hug Day, so sending all of your all a virtual hug :)

Time for this week’s Thankful Thursday! Today we are sharing a couple of projects from our Quilt Market booth, sewed by the wonderful Shannon Fraser of sf.designs. The first is a stunning Whimsical Quilt, with our The Alchemy Collection: Indigo by the Camelot Design Studio. The blue hues of Alchemy gave a playful look to the whimsy-inspired quilt design.

Our Flourish by Ciana Bodini collection stood out in the best way, with our Saybrook Pillow. The gorgeous blue and mint hues popped, especially next to the clean white space. What a wonderful pillow to decorate a neutral living room!

And last, but never the least, our Peaks & Valleys Table Runner was a great choice with our Mickey Mouse & Friends collection. The white space allowed for the primary colors in this collection to be the star of the table runner. We adore how Mickey Mouse & the gang add a warm, nostalgic feel too. So sweet!!

Thank you to Shannon, for making these amazing projects for us, for our Quilt Market booth! You helped us make our booth a great success this year!! Have an amazing day, everyone :)

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Thursday! I hope you all are doing well. Have you entered our Nordic FQ Bundle Giveaway yet? Be sure to enter here!

Time for this week’s Thankful Thursday! Today we are sharing some more of our Quilt Market projects; these sewn by Carrie Burnett of Beri Bee Designs. Carrie sewed two projects for our Fall Quilt Market booth, and adore them so much! The first was an adorable growth chart for our Mickey Mouse & Friends section. We chose the growth chart tutorial from the Bowls of Cherry blog, and love to fun and nostalgic feel using our Mickey collection. It would be the perfect addition to a little kid’s bedroom.

She also designed a palette pillow with buttons, our Nordic section. We didn’t have a specific tutorial for this one, but wanted to create a cozy corner with a palette seat. We stacked a couple of our palettes, and put the palette pillow on top and it made for the perfect nook.

Thank you, Carrie, for sewing these projects for us! We received so many wonderful compliments on our booths at Quilt Market. We have also now transferred the Nordic palette seat to our office ;) SO cozy and the perfect spot for an afternoon nap. Have a great day!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Thursday! I hope you all are having a lovely day. Chilly, gloomy, mid-November day… but it’s almost the weekend! ;)

Time for this week’s Thankful Thursday! Today we are featuring a couple of projects we had sewn for our Fall Quilt Market booth. One of our favorite quilters, and fellow Montrealer, Stephanie Baldwin quilted one quilt and sewed two bags for our booth. And, as always, Stephanie did an a-MAZ-ing job. The two bags were done with our new Flourish by Ciana Bodini collection, a gorgeous green and pink floral collection. The first is the Sienna Tote by  lbg studio. We chose the darker floral for the body, which contrasted nicely with the mint green gingham handles and bottom. The other bag is the Della Wallet Clutch by Swoon Patterns. We love how pretty this clutch came out, and would make for a perfect Christmas gift!

As well, Stephanie quilted our Cracker Lattice Quilt with our With Love by Jack!e McFee collection. We had never seen the physical version of the quilt, so we were especially excited to see this one. The pink and tan heart & floral prints worked wonderfully in this quilt design… we always love Stephanie’s quilting! It was the perfect backdrop to our With Love section.

Thank you SO much, Stephanie, for creating such stunning projects for our Fall Quilt Market booth. We are always so ecstatic to see the projects you sew for us (almost as exciting as Christmas morning)! If you want to make your own With Love/Cracker Lattice quilt – click here for the free pattern. Have a marvelous rest of the day!

Happy Sewing!
