Hi everyone!

Happy Thursday! We hope everyone is having a terrific day so far. Have you seen our latest Winsday? We are giving away our Roonie the Raccoon Kit, with all the necessary supplies to make your very own plush friend!! If you haven’t, be sure to check it out here.

It’s time for this week’s Thankful Thursday, and today we are taking the time to thank Marvy Uchida! Since their establishment in 1973, Uchida of America Corporation has been one of the leading brands in a wide range of quality office, craft, and art-related products. Their product range includes paper punches, pens and markers (including paint markers, fabric markers, gel pens, chalk markers, & more!),  crafting supplies, rubber stamps, and everything else you need to get crafty! They have a wide range in color palette and materials, making all their products perfect for any skill-level crafter.

We are huge fans of Marvy Uchida products, especially their pens and markers. As a fabrics company, with the recent launch of our felt and chalkboard fabric, we are always looking for fun and creative ways to use our fabrications. Different types of pens and markers that work with our fabrications….now that is a brilliant idea!

We had the privilege of meeting and chatting with some wonderful people from Marvy Uchida at this year’s CHA Show. Their product line includes chalk markers, fabric markers, and gel pens so we were exceptionally thrilled and excited to test them out with our fabrications! With our chalkboard fabric, we tested their markers onto its surface and we were very impressed! The colors were all very vibrant and opaque on the chalkboard fabric surface.. Another bonus: it was also super easy to clean, with just a damp cloth. We also tested them out on our window, another recommended use for them. We had so much fun doodling on our chalkboard fabric and windows with their markers!!

We wanted to thank the lovely people at Marvy Uchida for providing us with a wonderful array of chalkboard markers! It was very kind of them to do so, providing us with their Bistro Chalk Markers and Bistro Chalk Markers (Fine Point) to try out on our chalkboard fabric. All of the markers are super opaque, with a stunning neon hue, and very easy to use! Thank you so much, Marvy Uchida, for being super sweet – it was so great getting to meet you at the CHA Show!

We hope you have enjoyed this week’s Thankful Thursday! If you haven’t entered our Winsday yet, you can check it out here. Have a great day everyone!

Happy Sewing!
