Summer! Yep, as I write this, the temperature reads 83 degrees. In April. In Colorado And no wind. Something must be wrong. But I hear it's snowing in Pennsylvania. So sorry. But our new Label Crew project may get you ready for my favorite season of the year. This table runner will be perfect for summer. On May 1st, …
Hello Lucy…
When it rains it pours. Thank goodness it has been pouring fabric here for the last few weeks. I know we just showed you our new Mama Said Sew collection (due in stores in August, not September as I previously posted!). On Monday, Lucy's Crab Shack showed up. It is a huge contrast to Mama Said Sew, but I love …
Twins!
About a year ago, I became obsessed with Vanessa Christenson's Houndstooth Quilt. I love, love, love it. Everybody here loved it. Problem is, we never have time to actually make something for fun. You know, something not Sweetwater related. But…….. My mom surprised us at Christmas. She made both my sister and I the Houndstooth Quilt. In red. Exactly …
I Missed It…
You may remember that last year in March the fun people at fatquarterly.com came up with what I thought was a brilliant idea: March Madness for fabric. Mostly because I love, love, love sports (if you have been reading this blog for a while, you get that). And what could be better than combining fabric with sports? So I was …
A Whole Bunch Of Things
We have lots to share with you today- but before the new stuff, let's pick a winner of our Mama Said Sew contest. Our random winner is: Terra who wrote: My first thought was ric rac.

Mama Said…
Mama Said Sew. Oh, that might be one of the cutest phrases I've ever heard. It was about a year ago when we learned of a new fabric store in Fort Collins, Colorado- just about 80 miles from us. So, of course we had to go check it out. Cute name, cute sign, cute everything! You may remember me talking …
One More Thing For Easter…
We have one more kit in time for Easter. We've had this Patchwork Egg pattern for a while (it has been really popular), but we updated it with Reunion fabric: The kits include the fabric and pattern to create 9 eggs. They are available in our shop now. Thanks to everyone who participated in our plate giveaway. The lucky …
Finally! Our Plates Have Arrived!
From our sneek peek last week, I'm sure you figured out our new product line was customized plates. And they are finally all here! We created these with lots of our fabric designs- some can be personalized and some are simply fabric designs. They are made from melamine, and are perfect for summer picnics. Here are some photos of …
Next Week…
We have definitely been MIA in the blog department this week. Sorry about that. We do have a sneek peek of what we are working on for next week. More on these next week. We have lots more to show you. See you then. Have a great weekend.
A Couple Of Things…
We have just a couple of things for you today. First, our Label Crew fabric kits for March are on our Etsy site now: We also added another color combination: We didn't have time to make the apron in the bunting fabric, but I'm sure it will be just as cute. Next, just a reminder that today is the last …
