New Florals



Last time I shopped for fabric, I found eight patterns that I liked. I sewed up and listed the three plaids a couple of months ago, and here are the next two - some bright florals to add a feminine touch to the options. (Spoiler - I'm saving the best for last! The next ones I really like.)


I lucked out with a nice warm sunny afternoon this week to take some photos of them, 
then I got them listed while waiting for football practice to be done. 


The ones shown in the grass are the Extra Long (XLong) bags. 
I have two of those, two XL, and 5 Original Sizes in each pattern.


Find the listings here, and thanks so much for stopping by!

What's New for Alice&Victor

 Welcome!! I have been posting for a couple of months now, but I'm finally ready to invite you in.  Welcome to the Alice&Victor Blog. I plan to use this space to launch new collections (like the spring plaids - those will be in the next post), to answer questions (like when should you use your wheat bag for heat therapy or for cold therapy?), and to show you some behind the scenes stuff...              I'm glad you came to check it out, and I hope before you go, you might consider signing up for the Alice&Victor email newsletter, too. That's also brand new, and I plan to use that to share any sales or new products - no more than one email a month, and I'll try to be clear in the header what the email is about so if you don't need it, you don't have to waste time opening it. The link to sign up for that is right  here  - and  the first 20 people to sign up for the email will get a special coupon for 20% off your next ord...

New Spring Plaids

Image
Historically, I have been bad at buying lots of new fabrics, taking a photo and saying "Hey, let me make you something out of these - what do you want?" Or leaving a note on my listings saying, "Ask what else I have available! and having to send to-the-minute photos everytime someone actually asks! My new goal is to yes, keep buyin lots of fabric whenever I find a good sale or fresh new options, but I'm trying to keep them secret until they are listed. (Don't hold me to that; I may post a teaser here...) On that note, here are my new spring plaids! All sewn up, listed, and ready to go! I picked my three favourite combos from what they had, and got enough for one XL Bag, one XLong Bag, two Original Size Bags, and one Kid Size Bag. The day I listed them, the purple kid size one sold, so that's gone... but all the rest are up for grabs.      The Kid Sized Bags are 9x6 inches and are perfect as cuddle buddies to tuck your kids into bed with, or to keep in the fre...

The Origin Story

Image
Wheat Bags are the anchor product of Alice&Victor. When I first made wheat bags, it was for Christmas one year. Some friends had just got married and as centerpieces had jars of wheat with a candle nestled on top; I convinced them to let me have the wheat and then spent a long time picking out dried wax from the lot! That Christmas, everyone in my family got one. And then I started dating my now husband, and his family lived on a farm - with a seed cleaning plant - so I had access to more wheat, and I kept on making them. Every teacher, coach, and piano teacher got the same gift. It was my 'decide once' gift.  Fast forward a few years, I had married that guy, had a kid, and was now in a stay at home mom season. So I opened an Etsy shop! I did craft sales, made a bunch of different products - whatever I wanted to make for myself and was interested in, I ended up mass producing to sell. Covers for camera straps, fabric coffee cozies, pencil cases and little zip pouches... it ...
