Welcome!

Hi everyone,

Happy Thursday!! I hope everyone is having a great day!! Jackie McFee relaunched her website yesterday with a makeover, and we are celebrating with a giveaway!! We’re giving away a Neon & On FQ Bundle on her Instagram, so be sure to head on over to enter (click me!).

It’s time for our Thankful Thursday! Today we are featuring a wonderful quilt and bag pattern design team, Krista and Shayla of Sassafras Lane Designs. Their name was inspired by the street name where their Orange Studio is located, and famous streets continue to inspire their quilt pattern names – so fun! They are BIG fans of lots of color and prints, especially anything orange (also, hence their studio name!). Their bag and quilt patterns are modern and fun, drawing inspiration from their friends & family, and everything around them.

They launched a new quilt pattern this week called Canyon Boulevard for Spring. A gorgeous and beginner-medium skilled quilt, the pattern comes with two versions – one with string-piecing and one with a background &  assorted scraps. As well, the quilt pattern includes three sizes for versatility and convenience! The girls also gave a neat explanation behind the quilt, which you can read in their blog post. They chose to feature one of the quilts in our Fruit Stand by Jane Farnham collection, and adore the contrasting colors with white. The triangle cutouts at the bottom are such a lovely detail, which makes this quilt all the more unique and cool!

Thank you for the fabric love, Krista and Shayla!! We are so in love with the quilt, and think it looks beautiful with Fruit Stand. You can find the pattern for Canyon Boulevard on their website (available in both PDF and paper versions), as well as their blog, Pinterest, Facebook, and Instagram. And with that, have an awesome day!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Thursday! I hope you all are having a great day!! :)

Thankful Thursday time! Today we are featuring an awesome quilt shop, Provo Cotton Shop, with a love for Camelot Fabrics. Provo Cotton Shop is a lovely quilt shop in Provo, Utah dedicated to pretty fabric, and all things sewing-related. From shop hops to amazing sewing classes, Provo Cotton Shop wants everyone to fall in love with the ease of sewing. This June and August, they will once again be hosting a couple of sewing classes for kids called their Summer Kid’s Clubhouse. It’s the perfect activity to keep kids busy this Summer, and they’ll learn a fun skill. They also participate in sewing retreats, have sewing lectures, and host monthly challenges!

And yes, of course, they also sell lots and lots of gorgeous fabric – including our Wildflowers by Alisse Courter collection. They chose to feature mostly Wildflowers in their Bloom (pattern by Abbey Lane Quilts) Quilt Kit. A perfect choice for this floral-infused quilt design, Wildflowers adds such a pretty flair to the butterfly and flower patterns, and is the perfect showstopper piece to walk in to.

We cannot get over how spring-y this quilt makes us feel. So so bloom-iful!! (eh? eh? not our best, I know haha) You can find more from Provo Cotton Shop, and where to find the Bloom Quilt Kit, on their site, Instagram, and Facebook Page. Have a fantastic day!

Hi everyone,

Happy Thursday!! I hope you all are having a wonderful day. This week, we are giving away our Gypsy Lane FQ Bundle on our Facebook Page – so be sure to enter if you haven’t yet! :)

Time for our Thankful Thursday! Getting back from Quilt Market, we have so many incredible projects featuring our fabric back in our studio – sewn by some really talented people. One of the projects we had sewn up was a super sweet Girls Ruffle Dress by The Cottage Mama, done by Lisa of Lisa Lisa Designs. This Girls Ruffle Dress is absolutely adorable, and the perfect choice for showcasing our Scented and Mixology collections.

Our delicious strawberry print worked perfectly with our midnight woven, and the bow and ruffles were the perfect touch of sweetness. Lisa also added some mini red buttons at the shoulders, which we love. She did such an incredible job with this dress, we were squealing at its cuteness when we received it in the box!

It was an absolute pleasure working with Lisa, and want to thank her for sewing the dress for us for QM. Lisa is also a pattern designer, with wonderful PDF patterns available at her shop – Lisa Lisa Designs. We definitely recommend checking out her site! You can also find the pattern for the Girls Ruffle Dress at The Cottage Mama. Such a sweet dress!! Have a lovely day, everyone!

Hi everyone,

Happy Thursday! I hope you all are having a great day! Tomorrow is the first day of Spring Quilt Market – we’re busy setting up the booth, but can’t wait!! Come see at booth #101 :)

Time for our Thankful Thursday! Today we are featuring our gorgeous New Bohemian Quilt by Sarah Laws Made that we had made up for our Quilt Market booth. We thought it would be fun to share some sneak peeks here and there of the projects that will be at our booth…we’re also super excited about them and just couldn’t wait to share!! (haha) The New Bohemian Quilt is a free quilt pattern on our website, that was created by ever-so-talented pattern designer, Sarah Laws. She has a very modern and funky design style, which we absolutely adore!! She created this unique and fresh quilt pattern for us, and knew we had to feature it in our booth.

Stephanie Baldwin (one of our new faves!) is a quilter in Montreal, who we got into contact with from the Montreal Quilt Guild. It was so neat to meet such a sweet and talented quilter in Montreal. Stephanie was able to quilt the New Bohemian Quilt, featuring our Mixology prints, in a little over a week! Wow!! Her quilt work is also so clean and stunning… we are so impressed, and so in love with the quilt in person!  She also quilted another wall hanging quilt for us for our booth, which we’ll be sharing LOTS of pictures of!! (or, stop by our booth (#101) to check it out too hehe ;))

Thank you SO much Stephanie!! You ROCK!! We are so obsessed with the quilts, and cannot wait for people to “ooo” and “ahh” at them at the show. Stephanie doesn’t have a blog (yet!), but you can check out more from the Montreal Quilt Guild. If you are a quilter and living in Montreal, we definitely recommend checking it out! And with that, have a fantastic day!

Happy Sewing!
