Did You Say October?
Well… yes, we’re here already.
It’s been officially fall for a few weeks now, and I want to ask… how have you been feeling?
For summer souls like me, the transition into a new season can be rough. I wasn’t quite ready to let go of the sunshine and long days, but lately, I’ve been leaning into it… slowly easing into the season and mentally prepping for winter. (Because let’s be honest, winter in Canada requires a bit of preparation 😅).
Happening Since My Last Note...
The skies might be getting moodier, but we’ve been holding onto that summer feeling in the studio. Last month, we launched our quilted blankets, and the response… Wow. It’s been such a joy seeing your messages, your excitement.
Truly, thank you for the love. It means the world.
How You’re Styling Them
I love seeing how you’re bringing the blankets into your home. It warms my heart to see you embracing pattern and joy in your space.
Behind the Prints
We’ve been sharing a little more about the inspiration behind our latest blanket collection over on Instagram. If you love hearing the stories behind designs; the colors, the prints, the process.. You’ll find it all here.

Inside the Studio
I mentioned over the summer that we moved studios…and now that things are slowly starting to settle, I finally dusted off my sewing machine again.
Fall and winter tend to slow me down in the best way. It’s the season I turn inward, make more by hand, and find joy in smaller projects.
I’ve started working on something new, and I can’t wait to show you what I’ve been making.
Thinking ahead to 2026
Thinking ahead to 2026, we’re planning new things for next year, and I’d really love your thoughts.
What would you like to see more of from BLE?
How can we do better or make your experience with us feel even more special?
Feel free to hit reply. I read every message, always.
And before I go
There’s a little something for your phone. Some not-so-fall wallpapers inspired by the colors and joy of our quilted blankets. A little warmth to carry with you into the cooler days ahead.

Okay, that’s all for now.
Sending warmth, always,
and Happy Canadian Thanksgiving :)
With love,
Oris.
