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!

Time for this week’s What We Love #54 ♥ Yesterday was St. Jean Baptiste in Quebec, and our day was spent with the ones we love. It was a nice day out too, so it was the perfect day for a trip to the pool or a picnic at a local park. Taking time to enjoy the people who mean the most to you, doing even the simplest of things, is one of the most rewarding things in life. We love love. See what has been inspiring us this week… ♥

Hi everyone,
Happy Tuesday!! I hope you all are having a fantastic day. It’s the last day to enter Jackie McFee’s Heavy Metal Giveaway, so be sure to enter here!!
Time for this week’s How To’s Day!! Today we are sharing a superrr fun Pom-Pom Beach Cover-up tutorial, designed by Marion of Made by Marion. It’s officially beach season now, so we were inspired to make something that we could use for the beach or pool.
There’s nothing like spending the day soaking up the sun with a good book, and then going for a relaxing swim. And then after your fun-in-the-sun day, take yourself from beach to dinner with our stylish pom-pom cover-up. Our lightweight double gauze fabric is airy and soft, so it won’t be uncomfortable if your bathing suit is still damp – and it’s perfect for the hot weather! Our Magnolia double gauze print makes for a very pretty tunic, especially with the pom-pom details. Add some shorts, a cami, a necklace or a belt, and you’ve also got yourself a casual dinner top!
Want to make your very own pom-pom beach cover-up? All you’ll need is a beach or pool, and you’re set for a day in the sun & water! Click MORE to see the full tutorial.

Hi everyone,
Happy Monday! I hope you all are had a wonderful Father’s Day weekend!! It was such a lovely weekend for us, which was spent outdoors swimming and BBQing :)
Let’s start off this week with our Moody Monday! Today we are taking a complete 180 with season, and featuring our Winter Wonderland by Heather Rosas collection. The blue, grey, and pink hues are uplifting and cozy in this charmingly cute collection of winter characters. From the regal ice princess to the sweet penguins, polar bears, and foxes wearing winter gear, Winter Wonderland truly is full of magic & delight! Yes, it’s Summer now but hey – there’s never a wrong time for adorable prints, right? ;) We can imagine a winter-themed quilt or pillow, as well as these dreamy tabbed curtains.
This Pierre Balmain Spring collection was so bright and modern. There was a definite street wear feel to all of his outfits (all the outfits were styled perfectly for the model’s to head to an event after the show!), which is not something you see all the time on a runway. Lots of colorful Spring jackets, printed capris and shorts, and fun textural pairings (leather & lace, satin & animal print). One of the really fun jackets was this snowflake printed one, which we LOVED. It was so cool and reminded us of our Winter Wonderland collection.
We hope we have inspired you with today’s Moody Monday! We’d love to know what your favorite Summer trends for the year are. Have an awesome rest of the day!
Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,
Happy Friday! I hope you all are having a fantastic afternoon!! It’s Father’s Day this weekend, so here’s to all the incredibly strong and supportive dads – we appreciate you so much!
Time for this week’s Fan Friday! Today we are featuring a super pretty quilt done by Nicole of byLerina. Nicole started her shop in December 2013, when she truly discovered for love for sewing and its craft. She created byLerina, on Facebook and now as an independent website that is coming soon. She sews and features adorable children’s clothing, for little girls and boys, as well as fun accessories and quilts. Nicole designed a precious, little girl’s quilt as a baptism gift – for a girl named Emma. We are so obsessed!
She chose our Fairyville by Heather Rosas as the main fabric collection. It was the perfect girly and playful color palette for this quilt, and we adore how she wrote “Emma” and her birthday on it. Such a touching quilt and gift!
Thank you for the fabric love, Nicole. We are so happy you enjoyed sewing with our Fairyville collection. We hope Emma loves her new quilt! You can find more from Nicole on her Facebook Page, Instagram, and website. Have an incredible weekend everyone!!
Happy Sewing!
