Love a collaboration!!

Would love to hear what you think of Dandelion and Boo’s collaboration with Daisy and Poppy and Roses of Blue. We have joined together to raise money for Clown Doctors who bring some humour and smiles to children in hospital.  I love the idea of  of collaborating for a cause.  Making children laugh who are experiencing difficulty is probably the best cause there is.  Thank you for allowing us a glimpse of your happy moments in helping the cause. Best, Jenniferaprettysite

Bittersweet

The bus went by today and it’s always a trigger for longing..It went by so fast and yet I am so grateful to be present for all of it.  There is so much that can take us out of the day to day , we see it all the time.  I ‘m just so glad to have felt all the good the bad and the ugly.  There is something so precious about being present and available to our kids.  I love mine to bits and  I do miss the wonder that they experience in front of you every day..It’s exquisite.  So when I saw this beautiful quilt on the beach that Jane from Maiden Jane made it made me miss their youth even more.  She created something so beautiful that will be packed with memories over the years!  Have you met Jane be sure to follow her she is delightful.  Crazy Love is no longer being produced but lots of places carry them.  Here’s one place I found. Quilt Home has a ton!!

This week sharing the love

As you know we continue to share the love , we continue to share projects from our books because with each new fabric collection the books come alive once again.  So please do your self a favor try Girls World and Happy Home they are filled with everlasting projects!! The clothing, the floral crowns, the pillows , all find there roots in our books.  We look back to them often to inform and fuel new ideas!!  Purchase from me and I will sign or purchase from many of the fabric stores when you are purchasing fabric.   Purchase both together and with prime shipping you got yourself a deal!!  $34.96. So take a look enjoy the photo shoot and please stop by  The studio Tuesday for some great deals!!

The Par-Tay

For today and the weeks to follow we will be getting ready for market.  Crazy Love, Super Fly and Happy Land are strewn everywhere and we are cutting fat quarters for our Schoolhouse Giveaway so please come join Carla and I as we debut our wonderful slide show.

For now take in these glorious photos from Tim Geaney and styled by our very own Madeline Rhodes!!  Doesn’t the laminate kick butt!! That laminate is life changing.  So grateful to Westminster for more laminate.

We are so excited by these collections and our creative juices are flowing as are yours.  We love what you all bring to the table.

Soon there will be a drop down menu of our brick and mortars and folks we can’t thank you enough for carrying our fabrics.  That has to be one daunting task and we get it!!

So enjoy the party and the mix up of all the lines converge and work so well together.

It’s a Sis Boom SUMMER!!

Happy Summer! It’s hard to believe that it’s already July … Before we know it, October will be here!… What?! Why would we mention October?!… Well, we have some really fun pillows coming out mid-October… the Barcelona Collection!! With a little love from fab.com gardening tools, a sweet IKEA outdoor chair, a tall glass of crisp lemonade.. and, last but not least, a Sis Boom Rosetta bag, don’t you want to get in on this?!

We LOVE these pillows for the Summer, but they will also translate beautifully to an Autumn setting. We couldn’t wait until then to share them with you, so we had to get creative and show you what we were thinking on this hot Summer night. Now, imagine those same pillows with a cozy throw on a fluffy white couch?! Carved pumpkins on the stoop, apple pie on the table… Sis Boom says that Autumn can be greens, oranges, blues and pinks.. it doesn’t have to be all about orange and brown.. not for us!

Ok, enough about October! Just enjoy these as eye candy right now, and we will be sure to let you know when they are available on the market. Have a fabulous Summer night!

 

How does she do it??

It takes quite a bit of patience to create a quilt like this.  Melissa P. has been so prolific with amazing quilts and I wanted to show you her latest using Crazy Love! Look at this amazing craftsmanship.   The fussy cutting ( To fussy cut is to target and cut a specific motif that’s printed on fabric, rather than randomly cutting yardage as we normally do)

It really takes on the feel of a kaleidoscope which is just incredible to look at.   Oh miss Mel P. is just so amazing when it comes to cool projects.  Look What Gen Q put up today!!  She does it all!!!! Thanks for this very
