What’s better than laminated cotton? Laminated c

What’s better than laminated cotton? Laminated cotton that’s covered in lemons, flowers, and parrots, of course!

More flexible than oilcloth, laminated cottons are coated on one side in a thin layer of waterproof polyurethane. This fabric is a dream to cut and sew with, and there are so many amazing uses for it.

Make a bike seat cover, tablecloth, raincoat, and more!

Which is your favorite?

Maple Woods brings to you gorgeous earth-toned (but not drab) colors, whimsical motifs, and a good mix of print sizes. A little bit of each plus some solids and basics, and you’ve got yourself an adorable, cohesive quilt.

Send this to someone you think would love this collection!

This June and July we are so excited to be display

This June and July we are so excited to be displaying the Grizzly Country Rug Hookers' exceptional work in our classroom!

Hooked rugs are made by pulling loops of yarn (and sometimes fabric) through a woven base to create intricate and beautiful images.

Stop by the store anytime we’re open to see this exhibit of Primitive and Traditional Hand-Hooked Rugs in person!

Zipper, buttonholes, and cuffs, oh my! Maisie lea

Zipper, buttonholes, and cuffs, oh my!

Maisie learned A LOT while making her Alex pullover. She discovered new features of her sewing machine, successfully made her first buttonholes, figured out how to work around the metal teeth of a too-long zipper, AND made the most of a sleeve-length nightmare.

How did her pullover turn out? Good enough. And guess what. She’s gonna wear the sh*t out of it! You can read more about the trials, tribulations, and joys of Maisie’s pullover project on the blog (link in bio)!

What “good enough” moments in sewing have you had lately?

Eek! We just restocked our Charley Harper barkclot

Eek! We just restocked our Charley Harper barkcloths and they 👏 are 👏 GORGEOUS 👏👏👏

A richly textured fabric that has slightly more heft than a typical canvas, barkcloth is great for everything from upholstery to clothing!

And this organic barkcloth is made even more special by the beautiful Charley Harper prints that decorate each one.

Which is your favorite? The Spring Wildflowers, Brazilian Luna Moths, Hexit Barn Owls, or ‘Wrented’ skulls?

Cast your vote below!

No bra required. This label from Kylie and the Ma

No bra required.

This label from Kylie and the Machine and Mel Stringer (a talented USA-based Filipino-Australian visual artist) is part of a larger set of labels all about feeling yourself and loving your body. What better way to celebrate the final stages of a handmade garment fit to you than to stitch one of these bad boys on?!

Sewing labels onto the outside of a garment is new to us! Which one would you choose?
