Paper Pieces

Today, we recognize Juneteenth. A day marking the emancipation of enslaved people in the United States, celebrating freedom and hope for future generations.

Our office will be closed today as we take time to reflect on this important part of our nation’s history.

We will resume normal business hours on Monday. Thank you for joining us in recognizing this important day.

What do YOU think stitching “springtime”looks like? 🤔

Well we can tell you what one designer came up with, because that’s the exact line of thinking that inspired Marie-Élise to create Hexies in Bloom.

Imagine the scent of freshly cut grass and the cool dew of an early spring morning. With flowers beginning to bloom and the bright green of new growth. That magical moment in time when new buds open and the leaves unfurl, it’s like the world starts to wake up again.

Inspired by the beauty of the season, Hexies in Bloom transforms simple hexagons into this beautiful repeating floral pattern that’s sure to brighten your space.

Whether you’re looking for a quick Mini project, a Baby blanket quilt, or a full Throw sized masterpiece, there’s a new bloom waiting to be stitched by you!
