Hi everyone,

Happy Thursday! I hope you are all having an amazing day so far. We’re hosting a Flannel FQB Giveaway this week, so be sure to head on over to our Facebook Page to enter.

Sharing this week’s Thankful Thursday! Today we are featuring one of our awesome quilt shops, Nana’s Quilt Cottage in Colorado Springs. Nana’s Quilt Cottage is a local, family owned quilt shop filled with lots of modern & pretty fabrics, project patterns, and notions. As well, they offer wonderful sewing classes, with a range in skill levels to be taught. Among the many fantastic teachers at Nana’s Quilt Cottage, is Nikki Rainey who joined nana in business in 2014. One of the bag patterns in their shop features our Paradise collection, which creates an absolutely stunning bag – featuring a fun bow detail! We love the Paradise prints that were chosen to create this stylish tote.

You can find the bag pattern, as well as the fabric to go with it, at Nana’s Quilt Cottage and on their Instagram! We adore this bag so much, we may even need to make one for ourselves… Thanks, Nikki & everyone else at Nana’s Quilt Cottage! Have a fantastic day!

Happy Sewing!

It’s time for this week’s What We Love ♥ This week, we have been inspired by the creatives around us. From the adorable ballerina print by Carter Goodrich to the amazing actress that is Eartha Kitt, there are so many incredible talented people to look up to and admire. There’s nothing wrong with getting the creative juices flowing by going to a museum or watching an interesting documentary. Being inspired by others is good and healthy. See what else we have been loving… ♥

Hi everyone,

Happy Thursday! I hope you all are having a wonderful day!! Today is National Lemonade Day, and what a perfect day for it to be… a cool, refreshing glass of lemonade is just what we need on this hot day!

It’s time for our Thankful Thursday! One of the coolest “retail shop” ideas we’ve seen… we bring to you Trailer Stash Fabrics! Just as the name suggests, this fabric shop is housed in a restored, Vintage 1963 Shasta 1900 Deluxe Travel Trailer. It doesn’t get any more awesome than that! Owner, Gina Allen, also has an Etsy Shop that she sells fabric and quilt kits. But a couple of times a month, Gina will stock up her trailer with her favorite fabrics, and head to different pop-up sales & sewing workshops.

She will also create quilt samples to showcase the fabrics on her trailer… and most recently, she had one created with one of our fabrics… and with one of our free quilt patterns! She chose our Crossroads by Jessie Kurtz quilt pattern, with our bright and fun Paradise Collection by Alisse Courter. It looks absolutely stunning, even before it has been quilted!

She also had one created with our Darling Collection, using our Plus Sized Free Quilt Pattern.

The quilt pattern is available on our website here, and you can also find complete quilt kits at her Etsy Shop. Thank you so much, Gina, for the fabric and quilt pattern love!! Be sure to check out Trailer Stash Fabrics, to see where she may be headed next. Have an awesome day!

Happy Sewing!
