New Fabric Collection- Blue Goose

Published on May 19, 2020May 14, 2020 by meagsandmeLeave a comment

We are so excited about this new collection! Find it here! Blue Goose by meags & me for Clothworks.

Filled with your favorites- small basic prints & florals + the geese cannot get any cuter!

A nice mix of blues and just enough mint green makes this a very versatile collection!

We’ve designed EIGHT new patterns to accompany this line- we can’t wait to show you!

Here is a closeup of one of our favorite prints:

The little beetle bug!

No overpowering orange- just enough to add a little pop of color.

Fabric Mask List

Hey everyone!

In the CDC’s latest recommendation for preventing the spread of Covid-19, they have suggested everyone wear a cloth face cover when they have to go out in public.

There are a lot of tutorials out there for this! We’ve complied a list here so you can easily find the best way to make face masks for you and your family.

Ifyou’d like to donate, here is a list of organizations in need of sewn masks.

Stay safe everyone!

General Mask (Includes Sizes for Children)

With No Elastic or Ties

In-Hoop Machine Embroidery

With a T-Shirt & Hair Ties (No Sew)

(Temporary) Free Pattern!

With the quarantine situation from Covid-19, we’re cooped up at home too.

For the next two weeks, you can download our Chirp pattern FOR FREE here (CLOSED)

It’s an easy appliqué, hand-embroidery quilt that can easily be made with scraps. Better too, it’s a great spring/summer quilt that will be sure to cheer you up for the next little while.

We loved working on this one & know you will too! Use #meagsandme on instagram to share your progress pics!

Most importantly- stay safe everyone!

Wanderlust

Published on October 1, 2019June 6, 2020 by meagsandme1 Comment

A Little Red pattern to coordinate with our Little Red fabric collection!

Wanderlust by meags and me — WANDERLUST Retail: $14

We love the Scandinavian style of the Little Red fabric, and wanted to design a quilt using the Scandinavian star quilt block.

The pieced block you see here, is made mostly using half-square triangles- super easy!

The appliquéd flowers are very similar, though not an exact match, to a flower you’ll find in the fabric itself- making this a great complementary quilt to the fabric!

You can find this pattern on our etsy shop here, or contact us for wholesale information.

Little Red Fabric

New! Coming this spring!

18 prints!

Little Red Riding Hood is one of our most favorite fairy tales! We loved drawing Little Red- her stripe tights and rosy cheeks and of course a wolf to match!

These prints are perfect in coloring- bright red, mustard yellow, and a few tones of blue.

Of course we have new patterns to accompany this line!

Kansas City Quilt Market 2019

Published on May 22, 2019 by meagsandmeLeave a comment

What a whirlwind!

Besides the fact that everything that could go wrong, basically did- we had a GREAT show. There were a lot of (unnecessary, as it turns out) trips to Office Depot via Lyft. We probably could have bought a car for all the Lyft fees 🤦🏻‍♀️

We taught a quick schoolhouse class about big appliqué and showed off our new fabric line Rosewood that will be released this fall. (& you guys- it’s beautiful & super versatile!)

Also, our social media guru “&” (as she declares herself), is gone until January 31 (not that we’re counting days or anything), and so we have very limited pictures of this whole thing (dang it).

But it was fantastic to meet new shops and catch up with quilt shops we already know and love.

We have a nice line up of patterns coming soon. We will post again when they’re available on our etsy page and with our distributors.

Just a quick look at what we’re working on adding:

New dishtowel embroidery patterns! 5 designs included, all super funny.

Doodle-doo! I’m (personally) obsessed with this geo-diamond print and it looks fantastic with these flowers!

Blue Skies- this quilt is appliquéd in blocks before sewing the whole quilt together. Easy & a great result!

Dandelion- get it?

Fa La La- this collection is great for Christmas & throughout multiple seasons.

+ a few more! Stay tuned!

Big thanks to family & friends who helped embroider things for us, watched babies, listened to endless rants and near breakdowns 😂🤦🏻‍♀️- sometimes we can’t help it. Also, big thanks to all the Lyft drivers who let us stop at sonic for much needed Diet Coke and we’re still so sorry it took so long 😅

Secret Garden Collection

Published on April 3, 2019May 14, 2019 by meagsandme5 Comments

We are so excited for our first fabric collection, Secret Garden, with Clothworks.

It’s a beautiful mix of muted blues, greys, and greens with florals and birds. So naturally, it’s our favorite.

It’s right on the line between whimsical and serious and we had a lot of fun designing this line and working on the coordinating patterns.

Pattern Testers Wanted!

Published on September 13, 2018September 13, 2018 by meagsandme5 Comments

We are looking for both the accomplished seamstress and the very beginner who have sewing machines capable of machine embroidery to test our new patterns before they are officially published.

This Me Without You quilt is the current project we need testers for.

We love machine embroidery, and are happy to finally be able to offer some of our patterns in this format!

**If you are interested, please contact meagsandme@gmail.com- please say “PATTERN TESTER” in the subject line and answer the following questions:

*Name

*General sewing skill level (beginner, intermediate, advanced, or years you’ve been sewing)

*Brand of machine (make/model if possible) (i.e. Bernina, Brother, Janome, etc)

Testers will receive embroidery files to test (and quilt top instructions) via email, and a exit survey/short questionnaire to complete once the quilt has been made up. Feedback is always welcome during the quilting process!

Testers that send the exit survey within 3 weeks of receiving the embroidery files will receive a complimentary copy of the official pattern once it is published.
