Hi everyone,

Happy Friday! I hope you all are having a wonderful day!! Weekend is just about here – any plans? :)

Ending our week with our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring some gorgeous clutches by Shannon Fraser of s/f designs. s/f designs is an Etsy shop dedicated to handmade & unique aprons, pillows, cosmetic bags, make-up brush rolls, lavender sachets, pet accessories, and more. As a longtime fabric lover, Shannon decided to take her passion and do something she enjoyed with it – making beautiful items to sell! She is inspired by nature and color in choosing fabric collections to sew with, and to create her designs. Her motto is to share her “love and passion with the world through [her] creative designs, one piece at a time.”

Shannon used a couple of designs from our Wildflowers collection for some feminine clutches, and we love how they turned out! She mixed our gorgeous floral prints with some textured, natural fabrics – which is the perfect balance.  The simple foldover clutches include a top zipper to hold all of your belongings. And, how the floral prints add a pop of color to the clutch is perfect. Not too much pattern, but just enough. So pretty!

Thank you, Shannon, for the fabric love! We are so happy you enjoy working with our Wildflowers Collection. You can find more from s/f designs on Etsy, Facebook, and Instagram. Have an incredible weekend!!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Friday! I hope you all are having a fantastic day. Have you entered our The Kitten’s Meow Giveaway yet? You’re going to love this one! We’re paw-sitive ;)

Ending another wonderful week with our Fan Friday. We LOVE when you tag us on Instagram, whether it be your adoration for one of our fabric collections or sharing a beautiful new project. Thank you to everyone who has, it seriously makes our day! Want to join in on the fun? We’re @camelot_fabrics…and you can also use the hashtag #camelotfabrics. An – lovely mother of 3, fabric addict, and lilac hair rocker – enjoys sewing adorable dresses and skirts for her girls. But of course, she also sews for herself!

She sewed the Lilou Dress, from Tilly and the Buttons’ “Love at First Stitch” book. The dress features a fitted bodice, thicker straps, and a full skirt – the perfect vintage/50s-inspired outfit. An chose to use our Botanical by Alisse Courter Collection, and we adore how the navy and mustard leaf-printed design looks as a full dress. The muted colours allow for a playful, yet classy look. An paired her dress with a mustard cardigan, and she is looking super stylish! 

Thank you so much, An, for the fabric love…and for sharing your wonderful project with us! This is An’s Instagram too, if you’d like to see the other beautiful things she has sewn. Have a fantastical weekend, everyone!!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone!

Happy Tuesday! I hope everyone is having a lovely afternoon!! Feeling crafty? Well we’ve got the perfect project for you today…

Because it’s Tuesday, which means it’s DIY day on the blog! This week, we are featuring our gorgeous Saybrook Island Pillow by Stephanie Palmer of Late Night Quilter! Saybrook Island is a modern, “scrappy” pillow design that allows you to have fun with mixing different prints together. This is a great pillow to use the “extra” fabric pieces that have been carefully stored “because you never know when you’ll need that strip for something” ;)

Well, crafty friends, Saybrook Island was made for all of those lone rangers. You can match different prints together, or choose a solid color palette too, but in the end you’ll have a pillow that is as pretty to look at as it is comfy. We chose to feature our Magnolia by Alisse Courter collection and love the feminine touches of the dainty flowers together.

Hi everyone,

Happy Friday! I hope you all are having a fantastic day. Guess what? It’s almost the weeeeeekend. And with the gorgeous Summer weather, we’re ready for a pool day!

Ending a great week with our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring an embroidery case that Katherine sewed, featuring our Wildflowers by Alisse Courter collection. Katherine chose This and That‘s Tag Along Embroidery Bag, which is a fun whimsical bag that cleverly makes use of a charm pack. The feminine colors and floral prints of Wildflowers work so well together, to add the perfect amount of brightness and bloom to this useful bag!

Thank you for the fabric love, Katherine! We love your gorgeous embroidery case and think it looks stunning with Wildflowers. If you create a project with one of our collections or patterns, we’d love to see! You can send your pictures to info@camelotfabrics.com. Have an awesome weekend!

Happy Sewing!
