Made you Smile

Here they come our new pillows and we will let you know the retailers that will be carrying them.  You saw the ones in Happy Home and for those of you who don’t sew we decided to make them available and boy are we glad we did. The outpouring of love on facebook is a good indication that we scored. My Girlfriend Jennifer at Earth Angels Studios will be a good place to start May 1st! We are so excited by their debut..we are talking HAPPY!!!!  You can also create these in our book Happy Home with any word/s you like.  Please note do to overstock issues their are plenty of books under new on Amazon with much better pricing..just FYI That’s one of the best sewing books ever. ( I’ve been known to exaggerate.)

 

 

Tickles me!!

Zabtree Couture you have quite the eye.  OMG it takes a special vision to put these fabrics together in this ingenious way but I think the theorey is if you love it others will too.  I never would have put these together but omg I can’t stand it ,thrilled with the outcome and I know it is going to inspire others to really just may I say “CLASH”  if it feels right do it!!!  Sometimes a matchy matchy world can close us off from amazing options but friends of Sis Boom all know to do whatever their heart calls them to do!  We see it over and over with the folks highlighted on the blog.  We love your signature, we want to see what you are up to!!  These photos give permission for others to do the same.  I get in trouble because I’m not so matchy matchy but my heart flattens a bit when all the blues match, takes the fun out of creativity.  There is an energy that we don’t see other places when folks express themselves in this colorful way.  Zabtree you rock my casbah!! Theresa Abel Martin you go girl. Find her on facebook.

PS. take a look at the lining of the dress!

Quilting Passion

What you are about to see is brilliance!!  Rachael Daisy has been creating the most beautiful of quilt hexegons and I just had to bring them to your attention. These just get everyone ooohing and ahhing ..they are like little museum pieces.  Each one just will blow you away with the intricacy of design they create on their own. Like Kaleidoscope images you just can’t wait to see come together.  These use quite a bit of vintage Sis Boom which if you are lucky can grab on ebay or Etsy..  Just search Jennifer Paganelli Fabrics.  So go check Rachael out and enjoy the names of the fancy Hexies!! Below Chocolate Coated Rosy Posy!!!  Remember Craftsy has incredible charm packs and design rolls and fatquarters which are great for a project like this.  Not to mention their great prices.

Rachael so glad for the artist in you making me look sooo good..you are a Superstar!!

 

Happy Land Quilters!!

Check out the very inspiring Monique Reynolds who single handedly has helped me win over the state of California!!!  The most prolific quilter and one of the happiest folks I know keeps spinning it all into gold!!  With her sneak previews she keeps us all in suspense all the time so we are so grateful when the reveal finally occurs and she never disappoints. Everything is a winner and this is going to make you want to get fat quarters of Happy Land and start to sew!  Thanks to Hancocks of Paducah you can do just that check out all the wonderful pre-packs they have!!  and omg I just found out this was for sale at an amazing price!!!!  This won’t be around very long..wow!! On you marks!!  Fatquarters here.
