Valntine's Day

A Sweet Sis Boom Room for a Little Girl

Valentines Day is just around the corner and we couldn’t help but be inspired by all the pink we are seeing in stores. We created a sweet and simple Sis Boom Room for the pink-loving girl in your life.

Sew a duvet cover or curtains in Figgy in pink from the Nostalgia line.
A reading corner complete with a domonio char in gold plus a few comfy Sis Boom pillows makes anyone look forward to reading time.
A sweet area rug tops off the room perfectly.

If you haven’t already, check out Jennifer’s book Girl’s World, for 21 additional projects to finish decking out a girls’ room – think banners, floral lamp shades, and bed canopies plus additional patterns for dresses, aprons, overnight bags and a cuddly puppy!

Think SPRING

Hard to believe it’s February already! The good news is Groundhog Punxsutawney Phil did not see his shadow today, so legend has it spring will be early this year. We sure hope so.

If you’re thinking ahead to spring and Easter, the PERFECT sewing project is our darling Shannon Dress. While you’re at it, make yourself one in one of our more popular women’s patterns, the uber flattering Carolina Mae. Both dresses would look especially spring-like in fabric from the Nostalgia collection.

If bright jewel tone colors are more your style, you’re going to love the Color Brigade collection. It’s coming May 2016 and we can’t wait. You’ll definitely want to celebrate summer in an easy breezy Tortola top made with fabric from the Color Brigade collection. For the young girls in your life, the Tabago Top is another must have summer staple. Thank goodness May is a just a few months away…

A Sis Boom Celebration Quilt by 100 Billion Stars

SB-Wild-Nostalgia-up-close

Melissa over at 100 Billion Stars showed us this stunner of a colorful quilt top and we were floored by it’s gorgeousness. Aptly named Wildly Nostalgic, this quilt includes many of Boom’s past collections. I spy old favorites such as Crazy Love and Mod Girls plus newer lines like Caravelle Arcade and Good Company blended together skillfully in a riot of color. It’s fun to take a trip down the Sis Boom memory lane and look at all the fabric collections together on one quilt top.

On piecing together this quilt, Melissa said “Once I realized they were begging for a painter’s palette type of setting, things came together quickly. Rather than stick to a rigid progression of color, I chose a looser adaptation. The pinks swirl around from oranges to browns and purples. The blues flow into purples as well as aquas. This is a very organic way to put it together.”

Read more about this quilt and how Melissa made it, plus the free pattern over at 100 Billion Stars.

Thanks for sharing with us, Melissa. If you’ve been making anything with current or past Sis Boom fabric, share with us on Facebook or Instagram. Don’t be shy, we love seeing what you have been up to.
