Welcome!

Hi everyone,

Happy Friday!! I hope you all had an amazing week. We are currently at Quilt Market, Day 1, so be sure to stop by and say hi – booth #101!

Time to end the week with our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring a lovely Wilksten Tank made by Melissa Karpetz. Wilksten is a wonderful online shop selling ethically-made (and mostly handmade!) clothing pieces, accessories (hats, ornaments), and patterns. Wilksten is run by a husband-wife doctor/pattern-making designer duo who “seek to encourage thoughtful buying by giving our customers a personal connection to their purchases”. Melissa is a home sewer who shares her creations on Instagram, one being the Wilksten Tank she created with our Cove Collection. She chose a cozy turquoise and grey geometric pattern that works really well with the flowy tank – perfect to match with a pair of white pants and wedges. Our Cove Collection has a sea-inspired feel to it, so it was a perfect choice for the tank.

We really love this tank, Melissa, so thank you for sharing it with us! And thank you for the fabric love. We can think of lots of fun ways to style it for the Spring and Summer, such a great essential. You can find more from Melissa on Instagram. Have a wonderful weekend, everyone!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Wednesday! I hope you all are having a wonderful Winsday!! Today is also National Apple Pie Day – uhhh, YUM! There’s never been an apple pie I had that I did not like. Nothing better than a warm slice of apple heaven, wrapped up in a flaky crust and some ice cream…

Time to announce the winner of our Mother’s Day Winsday! This week, we hosted a Wildflowers FQ Bundle Giveaway on our Facebook Page, inspired by our mums for Mother’s Day. We asked you what your favorite mommy-and-me memory was, whether as a child or more recent. We had so much fun reading all of the replies, and am sure it took you all down memory lane a bit… It was also a great way for us to think about our favorite moments with our moms. Definitely too many, but there are a couple that are very special to us. Love our moms!! 

Of course, we could only choose one winner for our giveaway! With the help of our friend Mr. random.org, the winner of our Wildflowers FQ Bundle is…

Congratulations, Nicole!! You are the winner of our Wildflowers FQ Bundle. We are so excited for you, and can’t wait to see what you create. Please send us your mailing address to info@camelotfabrics.com by May 20th, 2015. A huge thank you to everyone who entered our giveaway. There’s lots more to come, so don’t worry!! Have a great day!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Monday! How was everyone’s Mother’s Day weekend? A little cooler and dreary here, but we still had a lovely weekend celebrating the rock star women in our lives!

Time to start off the week with our Moody Monday! Today we are featuring our DC Comics: Immortal Collection by the Camelot Design Studio. DC Comics: Immortal brings back all of our bestselling DC Comics designs, from your favorite Girl Power prints (Wonder W0man, Supergirl, and Batgirl) to the strong heros (Batman, Superman, Aquaman). Back at it again, not only to help save the world, but to help make your projects superhero-worthy. Packed with bright blues, reds, greens, and yellows – our DC: Immortals Collection is sure to bring out the superhero in all of us!

We loved Arthur Arbesser’s Spring 2015 Collection! Simple in color palette – soft blue, coral, black, and white – but very spring-inspired and pretty. His collection had some great trends going on, including a peplum-hemmed dress, chiffon overlays, and adorable cropped outfits. It’s the perfect spring wardrobe for a week in the Hamptons! We especially loved this outfit, which was reminiscent of our DC Comics: Immortals Collection, like a modern-day Supergirl. Love!

We hope we have inspired you with this week’s Moody Monday! We’d love to know what trends you are looking forward to wearing for Spring. Have a great day!!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Friday!! It’s almost the weeeeeekend. Woo! We hope all the moms have an incredible Mother’s Day this weekend, surrounded by lots of love and warm hugs. (Pssst.. we’re also hosting a Mother’s Day Giveaway!)

It’s time for this week’s Fan Friday! Today we are featuring a lovely personalized essential oils case found on the Girl Restored Shop. Jessie Carroll is the creative gal behind Girl Restored, an Etsy Shop dedicated to handmade, original bags of all sorts. She specializes in creating bags (clutches, train cases, makeup bags) with removable pockets for your essential oils, so that they are organized & will not spill everywhere. She also creates all of her own patterns, sells some of her patterns in her shop, and offers custom orders too.

Jessie chose our Bright Now by Jackie McFee Collection to create a fun, personalized case – complete with a personalized letter front, tassels, and pockets for your essential oils. She chose our yellow colorway for the bag, yellow drops for the shell & polka dots for the inner lining, that matched perfectly with the bronze letter and zipper tassel. The bag is a great size for all of your cosmetics, for travelling, and can hold up to 20 essential oil bottles.

Thank you, Jessie, for the fabric love!! You can find more from Girl Restored at her Etsy Shop, Facebook Page, Twitter, and Instagram. You can find her Bright Now bag here. Have a fantastic Mother’s Day weekend!!

Happy Sewing!
