Welcome!

Hi everyone,

Happy Tuesday! I hope you all are having a fantastic day. We’ve been launching our Summer 2015 collections this week, so be sure to check them out here. It’s also Chocolate Day... Don’t need to give us another reason to have our daily dose of chocolate ;)

Time for this week’s How To’s Day! Today we are sharing a tutorial for a stunning Quilted Bucket Bag, created by Marion of Made by Marion. With summertime, it’s also official vacation season! Whether it be a vacation to the tropics, a fun road trip, or even a day adventure to an undiscovered area – the quilted bucket bag will be your new, favorite companion. The bag is quite large, and has a comfortable strap, so you can put all of your favorite essentials into one – great as a carry-on or weekender bag!

The drawstring closure allows for you to easily find any loose items in your bag, such as a passport or pair of sunnies. The color blocking and quilt details add to this modern bucket bag, and it looks fantastic with our Zoey Collection. The taupe prints keep the bag fresh and neutral, but the coral interior is such a fun pop of color!

We are obsessed with this bucket bag, and cannot wait for our next adventure to use it! Want to make your own Quilted Bucket Bag? Click MORE to see the full tutorial.

Did you catch the first collection launch for our Summer 2015 Collections Week? Check out our last post, talking about our exciting Guardians of the Galaxy Collection! Along with our new collections, we’re also introducing two new Fresh Solid colors: Pink Chai and Carbon.

First up – Pink Chai – a gorgeous muted pink color, that reminds us of a soft strawberry sorbet. We have Pink Chai in our fresh solids, as well as in two our Mixology prints: Tonic and Woven. Additionally, we now have a darker, more inky gray color in the mix – Carbon. It is also available as a fresh solid, and two of our Mixology prints: Herringbone and Honeycomb.

Such luscious colors!! They work well with their coordinating collections, as well as on their own – we love mixing our Mixology and Fresh Solids together to create modern, clean quilts. Stay tuned for tomorrow…two more collection launches are coming your way!

The sunshine is out, the weather is beautiful, and we’ve got new collections to share! Today is the first day of our Summer 2015 Collections Launch Week!! Up first: our exciting Guardians of the Galaxy collection! The beloved Marvel superhero team have come to life in our action-packed fabric collection of your favorites including Star-Lord, Rocket Raccoon, Quasar, Adam Warlock, Gamora, Drax the Destroyer, and of course, Groot. Together they work to protect their world – such as the orb in the movie version – and are one super and powerful group!

Let the guardians take you on their next adventure with our collection – create a fun tote or some bed accessories (pillow covers and quilt) for the Marvel-enthusiast in your life (you included!). Our Farm Stand Quilt by Play Crafts showcases our Guardians of the Galaxy collection in a wonderful color gradation, and is available as a free project on our website.

We’re off to a good start for Summer, right? Click here to see our full Guardians of the Galaxy Collection. Stay tuned for another fun launch today…and all of this week. Lots of gorgeous colors and prints are headed your way!

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!

Time for this week’s What We Love ♥ New month, new adventures… in the midst of summer, we’re trying to do/try/experience/love/learn new things. Whether it be a recipe you’ve pinned but never got the chance to make, or a different experience such as skydiving (woosh!) or going to a ceramics class. Take a chance, take a risk, because you’ll never know unless you do. We’ve also added a new member to our design studio; everyone say hi to Roxanne! See what we have been loving this week…  ♥
