Yes, I know. I told you I would choose a winner of the Elementary fabric on Friday. Only trouble is, I was at home and my internet service is awful out where I live. In the middle of nowhere. But for some reason, it started working just fine today, so I better hurry and post this!
Congratulations to Kenna who wrote:
I found a stack of authentic fat quarters by begging on IG. :) And this is amazing....it reminds me of the perfect child of PURE and AUTHENTIC with turquoise blue eyes. :)
BTW, my favorite is the black and kraft dot. I'm a sucker for a good polka dot....
Kenna, just e-mail us at [email protected] with your mailing address and I pre-cut of Elementary will be on its way!
Thank you for all the participation. We are working on the quilts- we will show you soon!
My sister designed these yesterday, and all I could say was ahh......
By the way, we don't have a little girl name Lucy- we just wish we did!
These tags would look so cute on Easter baskets, but we are going to use them as "place cards" on our Easter table. So fun!
If you would like the labels and/or fabric to make the tags, they are available in our store. If you order the labels, you will also get the simple instructions to make the tag- so no need to buy a separate pattern.
Oh- and they coordinte with our Bunny Table Runner:
Have a great Thursday- we will choose a winner for the Elementary fabric tomorrow!
First of all, thank you for all the Elementary love! We can't wait to get started on some quilts- we have them designed, but actually getting them finished is the hard part. Now, back to Easter projects.
This one is my favorite. Meet Matilda, Charlie and Gus.
These are easy to make and will be so cute in an Easter basket! If you would like the pattern or kit, they are available now in our store.
I said these are my favorite, but I just got a glimpse of tomorrow's project. Maybe that is my favorite. Come back to see tomorrow!
We are so excited to show you our newest fabric collection. But before we do, a little background about the collection. Remember this?
As some of you know, that is Authentic. Our very first fabric collection for Moda. I have a special place in my heart for that collection- and one special shelf at our office has the last stack of Authentic fat quarters known to man sitting on it. But we aren't going to actually use it. We are going to look at it forever.
Which leads me to Elementary. When we started designing, we knew we wanted something Authentic-like. Mostly because we get so many requests to do Authentic again. However, we really try to keep things fresh and we want each collection to have it's own identity. So we really couldn't do Authentic exactly the same.
What we did do was keep the black, cream and kraft colors. But we switched the green out for our current favorite color- the perfect blue. The result? Something that reminds me of Authentic, but with a little twist.
Meet Elementary. (For a larger view, just click on the picture).
The prints are school-themed, but not juvenille. The alphabet, rulers, math equations and calendars are things you would find in an Elementary school. They are, in fact, Elementary!
Here is a closer look at some of the prints in the three different colorways. First, the black and cream:
Next, the tans. Or I could be fancy and call it kraft. Or sand. Or biscuit. Whatever you call it, it is a color we haven't used in oh....5 years! When I put this stack together, I fell in love. I think I missed you tan. Or kraft. Or ecru.
Finally, the blues. Oh how I love this color. And, yes, I know that print with the text is upside down. But the wind is blowing soooooo hard today, so I'm thinking it's just fine. Meaning I'm not redoing the picture today. Or tomorrow.
I just thought of something. If only I could grab that stack of Authentic fat quaters and mix it in with Elementary- I would be in heaven. I could really go for the blue and green mixed together. But if I did that, I would be in some serious trouble. Then we couldn't look at it on the shelf. Oh well.
I wanted to show you one of my favorite prints in the collection. We love, love, love, the ombre trend and wanted to try just a little of that in this collection. We chose just one print. It is very subtle, but I think it looks so cool. Here it is in black:
Here is the entire collection again, with the colors all mixed up.
Now, the fun part. If you would like to win some Elementary fabric, just leave us a comment about the collection. Maybe your favorite print. Or colorway. Or if you prefer the blue in Elementary or the green in Authentic. We will choose a winner on Friday.
Elementary won't be in stores until August or September, but we did design some Elementary quilt labels.
And while you have to wait months for the fabric, the labels are available now on our etsy shop
Thanks for looking- we are back to Easter projects tomorrow!
It is a beautiful day here in Colorado- good thing because tonight wind will come in at about 60 mph and tomorrow there is supposed to be snow. So today we are celebrating spring with our next Easter project. Here is our Spring Banner.
If you would like the pattern or fabric kit, they are available in our store.
We will be back tomorrow with a surprise- our newest fabric collection arrived! See you then!
Do you ever feel like you are just losing your mind because nothing is going right? Well, that is today. Or the last week, really. My computer crashed last week- there is nothing worse! So the whole process of getting a new computer, restoring my files, e-mail, whatever, lasted about a week. I was ready yesterday to get to work. But, no. I couldn't get my software on my new computer. Without boring you with all the technical details, the bottom line is: I CAN'T DO ANY WORK!!!!
So, while I promised a new Easter project for yesterday, I couldn't get it up until today. I am sharing a computer with my sister. Which is not ideal, but will be okay for today. So anyway, here is our next Easter project. A cute egg, with a pocket to place silverware, goodies or whatever you can think of!
The fabric kit includes enough to make 4 eggs. Everything is available in our store now.
Hope you have a great weekend, and I'm hoping I get to work next week!
