Welcome!

Hi everyone,

Happy Tuesday! This week, we’re showing you how to make a fun tote bag, with a band of pom-pom trim for a little extra pizzazz. Big enough to act as an overnight bag, this playful tote is an optimistic nod toward spring when it’s sewn up in blossom-colored cottons like the ones from our Pastel me More cotton collection.

Hi everyone,

Happy Friday!! It’s the end of the week! We are looking forward to staying IN this weekend..soso cold. It was definitely a trek coming into the office this morning with the blowing snow and -30C temperatures – BRR!

Ending our week with our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring a lovely pillow with our Let’s Go by Andrea Turk Collection. Fili & Lino is a blog by two crafty girls who met through the interwebs! We love that!! Together they created a blog to share their passion for crafting & sewing. They feature fantastic tutorials, their latest project adventures, and have an Etsy Shop for custom orders. They also post their latest creations on Instagram, where we saw their Let’s Go Pillow. Instant joy from us! We adore the feather print in our Let’s Go Collection, and think it looks fantastic as an accent pillow. Perfect for accessorizing a bed or tub chair!

Thanks so much for the tag, girls! We’re obsessed with your Let’s Go pillow and think you have a lovely blog. You can find more from Fili & Lino on their blog, Facebook Page, Twitter, and Instagram. And that’s about it for this week. Have a wonderful weekend!! :)

Happy Sewing!

Time to announce this week’s Winsday winner! We hosted our Felt “Red Panda” and Felt Giveaway, in collaboration with Typing with Tea, this week. We asked you what your favorite Valentine’s Day treat was. Pretty much everyone said chocolate…and we definitely agree. (We had a small Valentine’s Day exchange in the office on Monday which included cards, flowers, chocolate, and lots of delicious homemade treats). Chocolate > EVERYTHING. (haha)

We’re about to share a treat with one of YOU. We rounded up our giveaway entries, and chose a lucky winner! And the winner is…

Congratulations, Kelly Massman!! We are so excited for you; we can’t wait for you to make you your very own adorable friend. Please email us your mailing address to info@camelotfabrics.com by February 25th, 2015. And thank you to everyone who participated! Until next Winsday…

Hi everyone,

Happy Tuesday! We hope you all are having a lovely day. Today is Pancake Day in the UK and Mardi Gras Fat Tuesday. Lots of reasons to eat yummy food! ;)

Time for this week’s How To’s Day! Today we are featuring one of our wonderful projects from our Free Projects Program. Cheryl, of Meadow Mist Designs, created a stunning table runner pattern for us that we absolutely love. Her Best Wishes Table Runner is featured with our Paisley Please collection, the complimentary navy and orange hues working magically together. We love the simplicity and modern feel of this table runner, the perfect accessory to any bare table. Add some pretty white dishware, silver decor, and white tulips…and you have yourself a beautiful, cottage-inspired table setting.
