Hi Makers!

Happy Thursday! If you didn't know, we recently partnered up with "Debbie von Grabler-Crozier" for a lovely book collaboration called "Lagom-Style Accessories." Debbie who currently lives in Norfolk, UK has been involved in writing and the sewing world for most of her life and has contributed to newspapers and magazines across four continents! When she's not writing, you can find her designing quilt patterns, jewelry, mixed media projects and paper-crafts. 

If you're wondering was "Lagom" exactly means, it comes from Sweden and translates to basically "just enough" or "everything in moderation." Although a Swedish concept, it has gained popularity since it focuses on having a healthy balance and the positivity that comes with "not having too much" regarding creative projects and a minimal lifestyle. It's something you can't buy, but more of an ideology that embodies using what you have and making do with it. 

Inside this book, you'll find twenty, sewing projects (quilts, pillows, wall hangings, plant pot covers, place mats, coasters, etc) that involve "Lagom" and some of these projects involve our fabrics! Debbie has done a wonderful job of fusing "Scandinavian concepts" and "sewing" with each project and all of the images in this book truly give you a warm, cozy feel..you know, that same feeling you get when you're drinking a hot chocolate. This book is definitely for anyone who has basic, sewing experience under their belt and wants to progress to the next level!  So, if you're suddenly feeling all Lagom-inspired, grab a copy of this book for your next sewing adventures!

Until next time – keep creating!
