Welcome!

Hi everyone,

 

 

 

Happy Thursday!! Hope you all are having a lovely day. Have you entered our Green with Envy FQB Giveaway yet? Be sure to head on over to our Facebook Page!

 

It’s time for this week’s Thankful Thursday! Today we are featuring  one of our favorite quilters, who sewed a quilt for us for Quilt Market. I know, Fall Quilt Market is already coming up oh-so quickly that the Spring one seems so far away… but we really wanted to share this beautiful quilt with all of you! As well as the quilter behind it, because we adore her! Vicki of Orchid Owl Quilts has quilted a few quilts for us (some of them are hush hush for now! ;)), and every time we receive a quilt we are amazed at the intricate work she does. She quilted our Butterfly Quilt (one of the free patterns on our website), with our Botanical Collection, and this one especially “wowed” us (it’s also a big one!). We loved how it acted as a showstopper backdrop for our Botanical section!

And here’s a Herringbone Quilt she did for us, with our Mixology and Scented fabrics:

Thank you so much, Vicki, for always doing such incredible work for us! She has also helped us in checking some of our patterns, and is always so great to work with. We appreciate you so much, Vicki! To check out more from Vicki, be sure to visit her website and Instagram! She’s always posting something new and wonderful. You can also find the free printout for the Butterfly quilt here. Have a great day!

Hi everyone,

 

 

 

Happy Tuesday! I hope you all are having an awesome day :) It’s the last day of Summer… but it’s also National Ice Cream Cone Day. Oh my!

 

It’s time for this week’s How To’s Day! Today we are featuring one of our free quilt patterns, our Deco Ritz Quilt by The Fat Quarter Gypsy. Deco Ritz is just as the name suggests – a super unique and glam quilt pattern that would fit very well in the 1920s, with its graphic and angular shapes. We first introduced Deco Ritz with our Nightfall collection, which the quilt pattern was inspired by, but we adore it with our other collections as well! With our Fresh Solids, this quilt pattern has a fresh and pop art-like feel. Love!

Hi everyone,

 

 

 

 

Happy Monday! I hope you all had a fantastic weekend :)

 

Starting off our week with our Moody Monday! Today we are featuring our Nordic by Camelot Design Studio collection. Our Nordic collection is inspired by the clean and sharp prints of Scandinavian style, including the contrasting black and white colors (with a hint of pink!). The ikat, swiss cross, and diamond prints add a cool feel to an otherwise simple color palette.

We thought it would be fun to put a spin on our Moody Monday, and inspire with home decor. We found this awesome DIY on the Brit+Co website, sharing a fun way to spruce up a plain, white duvet. Using black fabric paint and a cross box, they stamped crosses all along the top of the duvet which created a cool, graphic look. Simplicity of color does not mean simplicity in look – playing with different textures and patterns create depth in an interior space, which they definitely have done in their bed styling! And of course, this DIY gave us a Nordic feel – which we love – and just had to share!

 

We hope we have inspired you today! And we hope you have enjoyed the different take on our Moody Monday. We’d love to know what you think! Have a lovely day!

Hi everyone,

 

 

Happy Friday! How is everyone doing? It’s just about the weekend, the last weekend of Summer. And it’s supposed to be a gorgeous one here, so we’re excited to blissfully enjoy it!

 

Ending another wonderful week with our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring an adorable ensemble of tunics by Lassie Girl, with our Paradise by Alisse Courter Collection. Lassie Girl is an Etsy Shop started by Ashley Yost. She creates and sews “fun & stylish clothing for the modern child” – including pinafores, dresses, and headbands! Her selection of fabrics are bright, modern, and charming and each piece is handmade with love.

One of her recent Fall additions is a uber-cute Pocket Bow Dress with our Paradise Collection, which features a side pocket and bow. She also designed a tunic (coming soon to her shop!) with a criss-cross back which would be the perfect top for a stylish girl! We want both for our (future) little ones hehe ;)
