Welcome!

Hi everyone!

Happy Friday!! It is such a beautiful day out, and we are feeling reenergized and great! Today is also National Pet Day so be sure to give your pets some extra lovin’ (…and a couple of extra treats too!)

When we aren’t finding inspiration on Pinterest, you can most often find us perusing Instragram – We LOVE coming across projects using our fabric collections! If you upload one, be sure to tag all your CF fabric projects with the hashtag #CamelotFabrics so that we can find them!! Seeing them always make our day :)

To end another fantastic week, we have our Fan Friday to share with you. Julie Mylander of the Quilty Sewing Blog created a Lil Monster Quilt with our Monster Mash by Heather Rosas Collection that is just the sweetest! When we saw this Lil Monster Quilt on Instagram, we got SO excited here in the office!!

Julie created this quilt for a co-worker’s niece who is having a baby boy, and decided to go with our Monster Mash Collection to fit the lil monster-themed nursery. Super cute!! She decided on a nine patch patchy 39″ x 46″ quilt design, and all the colors look fantastic together ! The monsters make this a perfect quilt for a baby boy, and it will look great in the nursery!

Thank you so much for letting us share your wonderful quilt, Julie! We are so happy that you enjoyed using our Monster Mash Collection. Congratulations to the mommy-to-be; we hope she and her baby boy will enjoy this Lil Monsters Quilt as much as we adore it. You can find out more on Julie’s blog here. Have a great weekend everyone!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone!

Happy Tuesday! We hope everyone is having a lovely day. It’s rainy and dreary here today, but you know what they say…April Showers bring May Flowers! But for now, to brighten our day we still have our Bright Now Giveaway going on! Today is the last day to enter, so if you haven’t yet – be sure to here!

Today we are bringing to you another stunning quilt tutorial for this week’s How To’s Day! The quilt design we are sharing with you is Quilt Bars by Tammy Silvers of Tamarinis – a simplistic, yet fresh and versatile quilt that works with a multitude of different fabric designs.

The clean cut lines of this quilt design by Tammy give a very modern and geometrically pleasing look, perfect to showcase coordinating fabric colors and patterns. For this tutorial, we have used our Mint Condition by Jackie McFee Collection and the mint & grey patterns compliment each other perfectly in this quilt!

This would be a great quilt to gift, for both genders and any age! We can imagine this quilt with some soft pastels for a “baby’s first quilt” or this quilt in dark navy hues for a boy quilt. So many possibilities! You can get the PDF version of this tutorial on our website, in the our Free Projects Program section, but today we are going to share the tutorial with you on the blog. Be sure to also check out Tammy Silvers of Tamarinis, as well as her Facebook Page, Pinterest, and Etsy!

Hi everyone!

Happy Monday everyone!! We hope you all had a restful weekend. It’s starting to feel like springtime here, and we cannot wait for all the pretty blooms! To add some glisten to your day, have you entered our Bright Now Giveaway on Facebook yet? Giveaway winner will be announced this Wednesday! :)

To start off another great week, we have our Moody Monday to inspire you. Today we are going to share with you our DC Comics Originals moodboard. Our DC Comics Originals collection is the ultimate fabric line for all the DC comics enthusiasts who also love to sew (…or know of someone who can hehe!). This collection brings together all of your favorite DC comics characters – Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Green Lantern, and Flash – in a multitude of vibrant and dynamic designs and prints.

We picture a fun quilt with this collection, as well as t-shirt patches of each DC comic character, and a modern bag design! The possibilities are endless, and can fit the style of all DC Comics fans of all ages everywhere!! You can check out the full collection here.

The DC movie Superman vs. Batman, set to launch in 2016, has been getting a lot of buzz lately on the storyline…and more importantly, who will be playing who! DC Comics has not yet released any set plot information to the public yet, but from the title we can assume there will be a storyline focused on the two superheroes in some way. DC Comics has released most of the actors and actresses set to play the superheroes: Henry Cavill as Superman, Ben Affleck as Batman, Amy Adams as Lois Lane, and Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman. This film will include all your favorite DC Comics characters, just like in our fabric collection!

There has been lots of discussion amongst fans on the chosen parts, namely Batman and Wonder Woman – What do you think about the chosen cast? We are SUPER excited for this movie to launch – We are happy with the cast members and cannot wait to see the movie ourselves. We cannot wait for all the action and drama, we know it’s going to be an amazing movie! :)

We hope we have inspired you with this week’s Moody Monday! Remember, you are all superheroes in your own right :) “Always be yourself. Unless you can be Batman…then always be Batman”. Have a fantastic day!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone!

Happy Friday everyone! TGIF!! We hope everyone is having a wonderful, sunshine-filled day. If not – we’ve got something to brighten your day! We are giving away a Bright Now Fabric Stack on our Facebook Page this week!

To end this week, we have got our Fan Friday!! Today we’ve got another incredible project to share with you all – Yana from Hemming Birds created a gorgeous half-apron that is absolutely perfect with our Iconic Collection. Yana made this wonderful half-apron as a wedding shower gift for her best friend, Melissa, who resides in New York City.

The design is loosely based on a vintage apron Yana had seen in an antique store. It’s also reversible…AND has pockets (We love ANYTHING with pockets here at CF!). She chose our Iconic Collection for its more modern esthetic, and it is honestly a perfect pairing with this half-apron. And I mean, who wouldn’t want to bake up a batch of oatmeal, chocolate chip cookies in this adorable apron? :)

#CFlovespockets

Yana and her sister-in-law, Jennifer, started their blog Hemming Birds to share their passions for cooking, baking, and sewing as well as mom/family-related topics. Moreover, they will be opening up a handmade shop in May, which will be featuring handmade children’s accessories – bibs, girl’s handbags, backpacks, aprons, and more! They have also posted the tutorial for this half-apron on their blog, so be sure to check it out. What’s even more exciting is that you could win your very own Iconic Apron on their blog – so be sure to enter the giveaway for your chance! This apron makes us want to do some baking and cooking, and we are super excited for whoever wins.

You can also find the wonderful and super creative ladies of Hemming Birds on their blog, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. Thank you so much, Yana, for sharing your half-apron with us! It is absolutely stunning and seeing the pictures made our day!! Have a wonderful weekend everyone, and don’t forget to stop by our Facebook Page to enter our Bright Now Giveaway.

Happy Sewing!
