Welcome!

Hi everyone,

Happy Tuesday!! We hope everyone is having a wonderful day. Today is definitely the perfect day for a pumpkin spice latte and cuddling up in a thick, warm quilt. Whether we want it to come or not, Fall will be upon us in officially one week.

We have been excitedly getting prepared for Fall Quilt Market with our projects and other goodies, and can’t wait to share them with you all. For this week’s How To’s Day, we wanted to share with you one of our past, in-house free projects that so many of you enjoyed. Our Simple Stripes Baby Blanket is an easy patchwork blanket, that mimics the look of a quilt (without the need for advanced quilting skills). It’s adorable, cozy, and the perfect size to wrap your little nugget in. We had previously shared our tutorial on our blog with our Playground by Vita Mechachonis collection, with the subdued blue and tan hues making our baby blanket soothing and comforting.

We decided to create a fun version of our baby blanket with our Girl Power II collection – the bright colors make this blanket POP! As well, our Girl Power II collection makes it awesome for any little superheroine-in-training with the Wonder Woman, Batgirl, and Supergirl designs decorating the blanket. We love the idea of your little superheroine snuggled up in her favorite blanket, dreaming to her heart’s content on all the *super* things she wants to do, whether it be playing all day in the yard or having a tea party with all her favorite companions. And we know, all our Girl Power fellow enthusiasts will be loving this blanket just as much (if not, more!) than she does…

As mentioned, we had featured our Simple Stripes Baby Blanket as a DIY project on the blog, which you can find here. As well, we have a PDF version on our website that can be easily printed out for you to create. You can find it here, as well as our Free Projects Program.

We really hope you love our Simple Stripes Baby Blanket as much as we do! We’d love to know your thoughts. And if you get the chance to make your own version, we’d love to see. You can always send your project pictures to us at info@camelotfabrics.com or tag us on Instagram. Have a fantastic day, everyone!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Tuesday!! We hope you all are having a wonderful day so far. It’s the last day to enter our Neon & On FQB Giveaway this week, so be sure to head on over to our Facebook Page to enter!

It’s time for this week’s How To’s Day! Today we are featuring one of our exclusive quilt designs from our Free Projects Program – our Chevron Arrows Quilt by From Marta With Love. Marta from From Marta With Love created this absolutely stunning, modern quilt for us that we absolutely adore – it’s an art piece in itself that can be showcased on your favorite couch or bed, or even to decorate a blank wall. We love the perpendicular feel of the chevron arrows, giving this quilt a unique and festive look that is perfect with both contemporary or more modern fabric designs.

We decided to use our Singin’ the Blues by Jackie McFee Collection and the striking blue hues look fantastic with this quilt. PS: Thank you Marta for the wonderful quilt design; you are such a talented designer and it’s been a pleasure collaborating with you. Be sure to check out more from Marta on her blog.

If you’d like to make your very own Chevron Arrows Quilt, you are in luck! Today we are showcasing the full, free tutorial on our blog…but you can also find the pattern PDF HERE. Click MORE to see the full tutorial!

Hi everyone!

Happy Tuesday! We hope everyone had a wonderful and restful long weekend. It was the perfect couple of days of beautiful weather and relaxation, the best way to start off September. We still can’t believe that we’re already into September, but excited for everything to come.

Starting off September with an awesome How To’s Day! There are still a few weeks left of Summer, so this week’s How To’s Day is perfect for soaking up those last couple of days of warm weather and greenery. Today we are featuring our Insulated Lunch Hamper Tutorial on the blog, a stylish and practical bag that would be fantastic for a last Summer picnic or beach day. But even as fall and winter rolls around, our Insulated Lunch Hamper can be used to keep all your hot food and drinks warm. Here’s to fun days in the snow, followed by delicious hot cocoa!

Our Insulated Lunch Hamper is insulated with our Spacetex, so it’s great for storing both hot and cold items. As well, the nylon is water-resistant so you can easily wipe away any condensation with a cloth. There are also three inner compartments, so there’s extra storage to organize your goodies. We used our Mint Condition by Jackie McFee Collection, which we think looks super pretty and fresh with the crisp mint and grey designs. No more lugging around heavy picnic baskets or boring coolers – take our Insulated Lunch Hamper on your next romantic park picnic or kid’s hockey match, and you’ll be equally organized and trendy!

Love it? You can make your very own Insulated Lunch Hamper! Click MORE to see the full, free tutorial! :)

Hi everyone!

Happy Tuesday! We hope everyone is having a terrific day so far. It’s the last day to enter our Petite Plume Giveaway. Be sure to enter if you haven’t yet, so you could get your hands on this gorgeous fabric collection. You can enter HERE.

Time to share another awesome project with you all! For this week’s How To’s Day, we are featuring our effortlessly cozy Simple Stripes Baby Blanket! Our Simple Stripes Baby Blanket is the perfect project for those who may be intimidated by quilting because the result is a beautiful patchwork design. This baby blanket is modern and chic with its, as the name suggests, simple striped pattern – you can choose to create a fun ombre effect with bold solids or perhaps tell a story using some novelty fabrics…the possibilities are infinite.

We chose to use our Playground Collection, which adds a whimsical and “playful” feel to the blanket. With its fun numbers, balloons, and playground attractions, this Playground baby blanket is perfect for any little nugget who loves adventure! :)

We are sure you will have so much fun making our Simple Stripes Baby Blanket, you’ll want to make one (or more!) for all the little kiddies (…and future little kiddies!) in your life. Click MORE to see the full tutorial!

Hi everyone!

Happy Tuesday! We hope you all having a fabulous day so far. We cannot believe that there are only two more weeks till September…is it time to start taking out the fall coats and boots yet? We’re excited for what’s to come in Autumn, but hoping we’ll get a few more hot-weather days! :)

It’s time for this week’s How To’s Day! And boy, oh, boy are we excited to share our newest friend with you all. We got so many amazing responses on our Endearing Elephants and Roonie the Raccoon, we just had to bring a new guy to the clan! Today we are sharing our Wallace the Whale tutorial on the blog, our adorable and friendly whale plushie who just makes our hearts swoon. Wallace is a larger sized plush animal, so he is perfect as a cuddly pillow and toy for your little nuggets. He would look so sweet in an “under the sea” themed kid’s bedroom or nursery – both decorative and super huggable!

Who says that toys have to be primary colors and an eyesore? We love that Wallace the Whale can be made with the most stylish of fabrics – we love the fun prints we used from our Design Studio Collection. Wallace is looking quite dashing, if you ask us! :)

To make your very own Wallace the Whale (…or Whitney, if you prefer!), click HERE to see the full tutorial and pattern. We hope you love our wonderfully, witty Wallace the Whale. Wow, now that’s a mouthful (haha!).
