Shop Updates : Happy Go Lucky & More

Happy Monday!  There's a lot going on in the shop today .... here are the highlights of what's new ...

First up ... Happy Go Lucky yardage is now available.  Many of the prints are limited stock due to the great response we have had to our BOM.  Once we get our block kits cut, we may be able to make some additional yardage available.

Speaking of the BOM ... there are a few more spots left as well as finishing kits now available.

More FQ Frenzy Short Stacks this week as we're making room in our FQ bin.  These flew off the shelves last week!

Apsen Frost by Basic Grey  ... LOVE this Christmas line!  Grab a bundle or your favorite yardage.

And a new Curated Collection called "Quilter's Independence" - perfect for your next patriotic project!  :)

And did I mention there is a kit for the Sending a Little Sunshine Mini?  I've put together a group of similar fabrics and we'll share the tutorial/pattern free here on the blog next Monday.

Happy Sewing!  :-)

Shop Update: BOM Kits & New Markdowns

Hi again, y'all!

Just a quick update to let you know that we have been able to open up a few more reservations for the BOM in Happy Go Lucky!  If you've been on the fence, you might want to consider snagging a reservation while you can.  It's not likely that we will be able to get additional yardage of this collection so once we sell out of the new bunch of reservations, we won't be adding any more.  There are also still a few Honey, Honey and PB&J versions as well.

Don't forget that if you sign up by the end of May, we'll send you a bonus block pattern.

Bonus Block Pattern for Hop, Skip & Jump BOM 

In addition to that, we've got some new bolt ends and some additional collections added to the $5/yard list.  Check 'em out!

Over the weekend, we'll be adding Aspen Frost yardage, Happy Go Lucky yardage as well as a few more colors to our Bella Solids collection.

Please email us if you have any questions!

Sending a Little Sunshine Your Way

Happy Friday, y'all! It's nice and bright out today .... a tease for what is supposed to be a stormy weekend.

I thought I'd share a special mug rug I made last month for a woman I've never met. She had sent us an email to let us know how much our packaging brightened her day at a time when she really needed it. I was reminded that a little bit of attention to detail can mean so much.

I was inspired to make this little mini ... compelled really, to create a little something for her.

I really loved this little piece and am working on putting together a tutorial to share with you all in hopes you'll spread a little sunshine as well.  :)

If you're in our Moda FQ club, you'll get a kit for this (in similar fabrics) as your bonus mini kit for the 1st quarter.  Hope you like it!  :-)

Hop, Skip, & Jump: Happy Go Lucky is En Route!

I don't think excited is really a big enough word for what I felt when I saw that this collection has officially been shipped our way!  So thrilled that our order plus almost all of the extra I ordered is now en route to our shop.  Oh. My. Gosh. Y'all!! I am so excited for two reasons ... (1) I love this collection and (2) I can start cutting kits and those of you on the wait list will get to cut and stitch with this stuff, too.  Hip hip hooray!  So, if you are on the wait list ... check your email!

If you already have a reservation (for any or several of the three collections), be on the lookout for a very important email on Monday with monthly kit payment details as well as the opportunity to order border/binding and backing kits - they will be in limited supply.

We'll have yardage for this collection available on the website later this weekend as well ... I will update y'all here when its all set and ready to add to your cart!

Happy Sewing!  :-)

Hop, Skip & Jump BOM - More Options!

Great news to share with you today...

I cannot tell you how excited I am about this block of the month program!  It is going to be so much fun stitching along with you all.  I can't wait to send out the bonus block pattern for all subscribers tomorrow - who's ready?!

We've been overwhelmed at the response to our BOM. Since this is our first one, we really just didn't know if anyone would sign up.  (Silly, right!?) Well, while we are still very hopeful to add more Happy Go Lucky kits in the next few weeks, we have also opened up monthly block kits in two additional collections - see below for the prints included in these kits.  Spaces are limited, so if you've been on the fence, now is the time to join!

 Honey, Honey by Kate Spain

PB&J by Basic Grey

And if you have a stack of pretties in your stash that you want to use, the patterns are still $10 through tomorrow (May 15th, after which they will be $12).

FQ Frenzy - Short Stacks

Happy Monday!

Our FQ Bin is bursting at the seams!  So this week we decided to grab 'em and group 'em for some limited bundles at great prices - just $2 a FQ!

These bundles are one-of-a-kind .... so there's only one of each available at these prices.  Most bundles are from an entire collection, while some are mixed from a few collections.  Some include the last chance FQs as well.  See them all here.

We'll add to this new section of our shop occasionally and will update the blog when we do.

Happy Sewing! :-)

Happy Mother's Day Y'all!

I hope you've all had a great Mother's Day and weekend.  :-)

We had a great afternoon with my mom - hanging around on the back deck, selecting bolts for projects, and dinner together.

A favorite picture of me and my mom - at my wedding in 2007.

In case you didn't know, Sew Lux Fabric is a mother-daughter business and it has been so fun sharing this entrepreneurial adventure with my mom since we took the plunge in the Fall of 2010.  I am feel so lucky to run a business with her - she's not only my mom, but also my friend.

Happy Sewing!  :-)
