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!
