Welcome!

Hi everyone,

Happy Thursday! I hope you all are having a fantastic day. One more day till Fri-yay! :)

Time for our Thankful Thursday! Today we are featuring a fantastic quilting and sewing hub, Craft of Quilting. Craft of Quilting is changing the wave of traditional quilting methods, by showcasing the more modern methods, fabrics, and patterns that have evolved from a classic craft. They have all the tools you need for your next modern project – fabric cuts, notions, how-to techniques, and kits! From beginner to more advanced patterns, they are sure to have something for you. A couple of our quilt & pillow patterns were featured in their latest Summer 2015 catalogue, including some exclusive Craft of Quilting patterns with our Gypsy Lane, Zoey, and The Kitten’s Meow collections.

They styled each of our projects, complete with their photoshoot. We love how fresh and cozy all the pictures are! All of the featured projects, and more, can be found as kits on the Craft of Quilting website.

Craft of Quilting – your latest catalogue is a stunner!! We had so much fun flipping through it, and seeing all the beautiful fabrics and projects (such as ours! ;)). You can check out the online catalogue here, as well as the Craft of Quilting website for fabric, notions, kits, and more. Have a lovely day!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Monday!! How was everyone’s weekend? Any fun projects that you’re working on? We’d love to know!

It’s time for our Moody Monday! Today we are featuring Carbon – one of our latest colors to become a part of the Fresh Solids collection. Carbon is a moody and broody, dark grey color that meshes well with a lot of different palettes. Warm a bright project with a bit of carbon, or create a neutral-colored quilt. And with the fall time coming soon, carbon is one color that is sure to keep all of your projects (and you!) feeling oh-so cozy. Our carbon color is available as a solid, as well as in our herringbone and honeycomb prints.

We are obsessed with how fresh and modern Calvin Klein’s Fall 2006 Collection is. Even almost 10 years later, his ensembles are all pieces we still see on the streets, in the magazines, and as upcoming trends. We love the neutral palette he chose – a classic look for the autumn weather. We adore this outfit, which is reminiscent of our Carbon herringbone print. Simple, classic, but that skirt is incredible.

We hope we have inspired you today! We’d love to know what fall trends you are looking forward to trying. Especially since NYFW has been underway! Have a great day!!

Happy Sewing!

As we count down the days to #ForceFriday, we’re also sharing some amazing projects featuring our Star Wars fabric – from some equally fantastic Etsy creators (who also happen to be Star Wars fans!!). Let’s see what they have designed, as well as find out why they love Star Wars too…

The Force is Strong Insulated Lunch Bag by brookiellen, featuring Camelot Fabrics’ Comic Book Covers fabric.

Who is your favorite Star Wars character? “First of all, I never saw the Star Wars movies until I met my husband (yeah, I know…seriously).  Better late than never, right?  This was mostly due to a story my dad had me believing for years.  When I was little he had this black and white photo of a scary looking old man in a robe, standing in the woods.  He told me that this man lived in the woods behind our house.  Of course I believed him and was terrified.  Then I remember seeing a movie poster (not realizing at the time it was for The Empire Strikes Back) and this same scary looking man was on it.  Once I got a little older, I found out that the photo of the “scary looking old man living in the woods behind my house” was actually my uncle wearing an old robe and a YODA mask.  Thanks Dad!  For this reason, Star Wars will always hold a special and strange place in my childhood memories.  This is comical especially now because after actually watching the movies, Yoda has become one of my favorite characters.”

Star Wars Dress by Cyanidekissx, featuring Camelot Fabrics’ Comic Strip fabric.

Who is your favorite Star Wars character? “Well….that’s a funny one…because I think he’s just about every Star Wars fan’s least favourite character…But really like Jar Jar.. He makes me giggle! Not sure I should admit that one ;)”

Thank you to these fabulous and talented ladies who let us share their Star Wars products! 2 down, three more days to go…
