Welcome!

Hi everyone,

Happy Friday! We hope everyone had a great week – any fun plans for the weekend? We’re hoping for some mild weather, with a touch of pretty flurries, so that we can go skating! Yup, the winter can be horrid…but there are definitely a lot of fun that comes with it too. Getting excited for all the winter activities!

It’s time to end our week with our Fan Friday! This week, we are featuring an awesome project from Isabelle Lachance. Isabelle loves making things with fabrics of fun, bright colors and nostalgic cartoons. She is a fabric enthusiast and enjoys making things & sewing, and decided to open up an Etsy Shop to share her creations. Creationilo is the name of her shop, which perfectly encapsulates her love for being creative and unique, handmade items.

She adores our Betty Boop Collection and decided to use our yellow filmstrip design to create a fun, placemat pouch. It is such a great and multi-purposed idea – you can carry your utensils in your lunch bag and use it as a placement, all in one!  We love the convenience of her placemat pouch, and adore the vibrant, yellow Betty Boop print she chose. The pop of hot pink is a fantastic touch too!

You can check out Isabelle’s Etsy Shop for her awesome Betty Boop placement pouch, as well as for more cool goodies. Thank you for the fabric love, Isabelle – we are so glad you love our Betty Boop Collection! And have a wonderful weekend, everyone! :)

Happy Sewing!
