Sew In the Know Tuesday: New at Riley Blake

Flowers and labels and zippers.... oh my!!

Riley Blake has some exciting new products to help us all be better sewing-stars with less stress.

First off, crocheted flowers. These are just wonderful and I could think of about a million uses for these. Check them out:

You can see more right HERE.

Next, we have these fabulous, pre-made labels to add to your designs! They come in 3 Colorways AND they each have enough room to turn under the edges of your label. I love that!


You can read more right HERE.

And last, the new zippers. I already posted about them HERE, but I had to have 3 things for my opening line to make sense. Hee hee!

Sew In the Know Tuesday: Fandango, Etc

I am so excited to share this weeks sewing news. There is always something happening in this industry and here are a few tidbits.

Riley Blake has two lines that are shipping really soon, so start to watch for these in your favorite shops. Hooty Hoot and Domestic Diva. These are fun lines, for sure!



Next, Fandango by Moda is also going to be hitting shops anytime now. Kate Spain is the designer here and I am thrilled with this fabric. She did such an amazing job!


Also by Moda, Spirit by Lila Tueller is going to be available any day, if it isn't already. This is a pretty line as well and I do like Lila's style.


And... just for fun, here is a new image of Art Gallery's Dreaming in French. I just love these! I might just end up buying 30 bolts of this on accident.

Also, here's a new sneak peek from Michal Miller. This line is going to be introduced at the October Quilt Market and is called Bonne Amis. Pretty, no??


And there you go. What are you most looking forward to?

Sew in the Know: Milly by Erin Ries for Clothworks

I already posted about this line but I had to make a collage so you can see these fabrics all together. Here's the lowdown in case you missed the first post:

This is a line coming out this Fall designed by Erin Ries for Clothworks. It's called Milly.

I'm lovin' the colors on this design. You can see them closer up right HERE at the Clothworks website.

What do you say? Do you like this? I'd make a quilt with this... or an apron... or skirts... or a nice table runner... or just about anything really.

Sew in the Know: Twelve Days by Clothworks

I know it early for Christmas.. or maybe not... but I think I just found my favorite new Christmas line!! It's called Twelve Days designed by Sharyn Sowell for Clothworks. It could be getting into those shops any time now.

Sew in the Know: Moda's Winter Releases

I love how easy Moda makes it to follow their new releases. They just added this winter to their site. Here are a few peeks.

Girlie Girl, Dec 2010
Love these sweet pastels and girly themes.

Giddy by Sandy Gervais, Nov 2010
These rich browns and pinks with a hint of blue make me think, "Valentine's Day!!"

Basics by Basic Grey, Nov 2010
Filled with those not-so-typical neutrals that we are always looking for.

A Morris Tapestry, Nov 2010
Rich, intricate damasks with tons of fancy-factor.

Hideaway. Dec 2010
You can't go wrong with these vintage-y reds, yellows, greens and blues.

Java, Nov 2010
Not my personal thing, but I do like the colors in this coffee themed line.

Sugar Pop, Dec 2010
My personal favorite!!! I can't get enough of these fabrics.

Regent Street Lawn, Dec 2010
Flowers anyone? You want flowers, you got flowers here.

La Petite Ecole, Dec 2010
This shouts, "America!" so I couldn't figure out why it's French. And then the light clicked on... it's designed by The French General. Ah ha! As far as I can figure this means, "The Little School."

So there you have it. Do you have a favorite? One you are dying to see in person? I'd love to know.
