Hello friends! I have enjoyed a very busy two wee

Hello friends! I have enjoyed a very busy two weeks…. 💙. I’ve been extraordinarily lucky to have had the chance to visit with family and a very dear friend after such a long time apart.

But while I’ve been quiet on social (due in a large part to the questionable connectivity I’ve had while being out and about), I’ve been super busy behind the scenes crafting up my fourth Moda collection! This one has been a tough one…. Lots of ideas, drafts and revisions…. But, I have the best cheering team in the universe and it’s coming together! I can’t wait to share what I’ve poured my heart into for you all next.

While I’m finishing that art and since I have to keep it under wraps for quite some time…. Here’s one of my favorite pics of one of my favorites…. My little guy, Sammy. 💙

Posting a quick hello to make sure I’m properly

Posting a quick hello to make sure I’m properly tending my Instagram feed. My little guy managed to get covered in poison ivy and share it with Mama …. So we are both sending calamine wishes and Benadryl dreams your way!!

By the way, this pattern is “sprig” from Break of Day…. It’s a soft little floral that might just be my favorite in the line?! Don’t tell the chickens! They’ll never forgive me! 😳

Sprig is a happy little neutral blender pattern that caters to the green phase I appear to be in. 💚 I’m using it to back a memory board I made from a thrift store frame… I’ll be sure to share it soon!

Stay not itchy, y’all! 🤓

I reupholstered my Granny’s antique little table

I reupholstered my Granny’s antique little table with a quilt top I made with Break of Day and I LOVE it. It makes me happy to bring a fresh look to an old family friend…. I played with this table so much as a kid. I think about 4-5 year old me enjoying snacks and watching Scooby Doo at Granny’s house when I look at it. It’s the perfect height to be an ottoman in my office now and it’s really good mojo to have it near.

What are your favorite “recipes” for using your jelly rolls? I’d love to know!

Happy creating and have a wonderful weekend!

I had a lovely chat with Steve from @sewendipitous

I had a lovely chat with Steve from @sewendipitousgoods yesterday and we discussed how the right quilting just absolutely brings a quilt to life. I mentioned that I thought Amanda @graccieone picked the perfect quilting motif for this quilt .... this Baptist fan pattern. I literally gasped when I saw the finished quilt. Isn’t it lovely?

O’ Beautiful Morning is a free pattern created by @michelle.made.this & @njcrabtree for my Break of Day collection. Snag the download for yourself! Downloads available on both mine and Moda’s website.

Hi Everyone! I thought I’d post a quick hello!

Hi Everyone!

I thought I’d post a quick hello! While my feed has been quieter than usual, I have not! ☺️ Behind the scenes, I’m busily sampling and tweaking all kinds of fun products to bring more Sweetfire Road art to hearts and homes. Here is one of my wallpapers that I’m testing. It features my beloved Queen Anne’s lace... a symbol for sanctuary that I think is perfect for a new home. I hope you love it as much as I do!

My time has also been spent on our new home. One of my big dreams was for my family and I to find a home... a farmhouse for us to love. And now that dream has come to pass, I’m spending some time getting to know it, plant gardens and get some love in the walls. It’s important for me to be mindful of this big blessing and spend some time being grateful for what we have received.

And finally, Through the Woods, my second collection for @modafabrics is getting ready to launch this summer and I’m getting so excited to share it with you! It features a forest setting along with a watchful owl companion. Featuring a romantic gray and gold palette, I know you all will be creating the most beautiful projects with it and I can’t wait to see how you make this collection your own. Look for it shortly (around July) at your LQS

Back to work... just wanted to make sure y’all knew how grateful I am to have you along for this journey. Thank you for your support and love. Warmly, Jackie

Break of Day has been getting all of the attention lately, but Through the Woods is on its heels!

Debuting this summer, Through the Woods takes you on a cozy stroll through the forest. Overhead, there is a watchful owl in the silvery-white birch branches.
