Hi Everyone! How is your weekend going?
Well, as the title suggests I am running a little late  with Mix N Match Saturday!  Sew we will have a Sunday edition for a change ;)
Here are a couple of my favourite Patterns Only patterns from  the last week teamed with some of my favourite  Oz Material Girls fabrics.

As I've said in the past, it's so easy to match using fabrics from the same line. That's why they make whole ranges ;) Sometimes you use a pattern that cries out for a statement. One special fabric that matches perfectly with the look you are trying to achieve. Here is an example.
The Amy Dress Pattern from Kikoi Patterns. I've teamed it with Glamour Inc by Benartix for our first statement :

And here it is with Twice As Nice by Riley Blake :

~*~
Did you know there's less than a week of Summer left?  That means the nights will be turning cool soon - and we will all be looking for warmer PJ's! :) 
Also, did you know The Oz Material Girls carried Flannels?! It just so happens that I have the perfect pattern for you!  The Pyjama Party PJs from Fishsticks Designs!   Here it is for the boys - teamed with boyish Flannels :

And some girly Flannels for the girls! :

  Cute hey!
Don't forget that we love to see items you make using  patterns from Patterns Only and fabric from  The Oz Material Girls, sew feel free to send  us some pics in sometime! :)

Mix 'n' Match Saturday is here!

Yayy, it's Mix and Match Saturday again!   It's no secret to those who know me {and have seen my personal stash} that I adore Jelly Rolls! I think they are a fantastic way to buy a little of each fabric in a line. They are so colourful and versatile and my obsession with Charm Squares is only slightly smaller ;)   Sew, I thought since we had sooo many gorgeous NEW Jelly Rolls arrive  at The Oz Material Girls recently that I would feature Pre-cuts today! I will  match them with patterns from Patterns Only that suit pre-cut fabrics.   Clare's Place have some wonderful patterns suitable for  Jelly Rolls and Charm packs.    First off how about the Bubbles and Ruffles Quilt, shown below  with the Wishes from Moda Jelly Roll:  

    This one, the Best Friends Quilt is very striking! It's pictured below with the gorgeous Baby Jane Jelly Roll from Moda  

    The Flipped Throw is lovely! You could use bright colours like the Mixed Bag Prints from Moda also pictured below. It would brighten any space :  

 ~*~   Here are a couple of quilts that would be perfect with Charms!   Here is Jayne's Love from Clare's Place pictured with one of my favourite lines, Daydream by Kate Spain Charm Squares :   

  And finally, here's the Twinkle Twinkle quilt pictured below  with Hubba Hubba from Moda Jelly Roll :  

  Hope this gives you some inspiration and shows you what a quick  and easy option Jelly Rolls are! :)   ~*~   Dont forget, this weekend we are offerning FREE postage on  orders of $50 or more. It ends Midnight Monday 27th Jan.  Check out the details below for your exclusive code!
