Their debut collection GeoBloom showcases prints from each member of the Social Bee Collective. This collection has a good mix of geometric and floral designs with a cheerful color palette. I love the soft colors used that you would find in nature. With refreshing blues, warm pinks and peaches, and delicate purple shades that will have you dreaming of the relaxing accent of lavender.

Create a Quilt Blocks with No Piecing- Reverse Applique Block Featuring Costeira Fabrics By AGF

Hello Sewing Friends, 

Are you ready to make a quilt block that requires no piecing at all? Join me in making the Reverse Applique block featuring Costeria Fabrics by AGF Studio! 

You can find the template design here: Template Design

What is your favorite part of the quilting process? I am in love with each stage from choosing fabrics, ironing, cutting, sewing, piecing, to quilting and binding! What if I told you, you can create a whole quilt with no piecing at all? I know, wild, right!? I haven't tried my hand in Reverse Applique too many times in the past but when this block was created for the Costeira Lookbook I was like I got to give this a try! In all honesty, at  first, I was a little nervous! 

 Once I got started I realized how relaxing and fun it was to slowly reveal my organic stitched design by cutting the upper layer of fabric. This project was great because it gave me an opportunity to use my free motion foot. Another thing I was scared to try in the past but now I love it! What is something you held out on trying and don't know why you waited so long to try? Below are more blocks we created using the Reverse Applique technique.


Costeira_Blocks-1

Costeira_Blocks-2

Can you imagine making enough of these blocks with Costeira Fabrics to sew to make up a whole quilt! That would make the most EPIC Summer beach quilt! I also love that with this method it is using the quilt as you go method. Here is a video showing two different ways to piece your quilt as you go blocks together just in case you decided to go for making that epic summer beach quilt! 

AGF is always creating the most gorgeous quilting designs using this technique and I feel like you can express yourself more artistically with this organic method. 

If you are ready to dive head first into reverse applique projects?  Here is another project to get you started below!  

Star Block Tote

I encourage you to give reverse applique a try. Draw out designs, have fun stitching, cutting, and watching your projects come to life! 

Happy Sewing, 

Melissa


Summer Sewing starts with Costeira Fabrics by AGF

Hello Sewing Friends, 

Need a vacation without even stepping foot outside your sewing room? All you need is a bundle of Costeira fabrics by AGF Studio and a tall cool glass of your favorite drink! There is nothing quite like visiting the ocean for the first time. The sound of the crashing waves, the magical sparkle that dances across the water from the sun, and the deep vast blue that extends for miles and miles. My favorite thing to do when I visit the beach even to this day is to dive for sea shells and eat the local fresh seafood.

 

The Costeira collection by AGF studio has my mouth watering with its vibrant colors that captures the essence of oceanic beauty with seashells, coastal treats, and seaside escapades. It takes us to the charming coast of Portugal with pops of pastel yellow, ocean blues, and splashes of soft orange and bright pink!

“Azulejos” free quilt pattern plays with the blues and the pinks in this collection using this tile patchwork design. The placement of each print creates such stunning movement making your eyes dance as you sit and stare at it. I love how different this quilt pattern can look depending on what collection and colors of fabrics you use. It comes together quickly using the easy strip piecing tutorial in the PDF pattern.

Besides sewing, eating good food from different places around the world is something that makes me really happy! So of course “Gosto Da Costa Fresca” is one of my favorite prints showcasing the yummy cuisine of Costeira. I love how this print turned out in the “Continuous Tablerunner” pattern. For the border we used the mosaic tile print, “Azulejos Rosados” and “Azulejos Azuis” mixed with the pure solids and floral elements! Ideal runner for summer backyard get-togethers! 

Costeira_Table-Runner-1
The sardine print in this collection is so iconic and is trending really hard right now. I love the fresh pastel colors and placement of the sardine cans which is perfect for fussy cutting. We were inspired by this print to create this sardine patio pillow following the design of the print! 

Costeira-Pillow-Sardine

One more print I need to shine a light on is the “Algarve Shores” print showing off the scenic ocean waves, flying seagulls, shells, lighthouses, and beach goers relaxing. This print speaks volumes and is the perfect backdrop for quilts or larger projects like this Medi skirt!
