Welcome!

Continuing our Summer 2015 Collections Launch Week! Today we are sharing our Ethereal Collection by the Camelot Design Studio. Ethereal is a stunning collection inspired by our beloved floral favorites – peonies, dahlias, daisies, tulips – in feminine hues of blue, orchid, and taupe. Exquisite floral designs combine to create a very fluttery, ethereal feel – like frolicking through a meadow of delicate blooms! Keep things fresh with our Ethereal collection by making an airy, floral quilt and some coordinating tabbed curtains. Make a sweet skater skirt, and pair it with a chambray shirt and tote for a casual day at brunch.

It is also available in our double gauze, so we see a feminine purple and blue infinity scarf in your future! Gussy up your guest bedroom with an ethereal quilt, such as our Festival Quilt by Play Crafts. Soo lovely!

We’d love to know what you think of our Ethereal Collection! We just can’t get over its gorgeous color combination. To see our other Summer 2015 collections, click here, and stay tuned for more!

Did you catch the first collection launch for our Summer 2015 Collections Week? Check out our last post, talking about our exciting Guardians of the Galaxy Collection! Along with our new collections, we’re also introducing two new Fresh Solid colors: Pink Chai and Carbon.

First up – Pink Chai – a gorgeous muted pink color, that reminds us of a soft strawberry sorbet. We have Pink Chai in our fresh solids, as well as in two our Mixology prints: Tonic and Woven. Additionally, we now have a darker, more inky gray color in the mix – Carbon. It is also available as a fresh solid, and two of our Mixology prints: Herringbone and Honeycomb.

Such luscious colors!! They work well with their coordinating collections, as well as on their own – we love mixing our Mixology and Fresh Solids together to create modern, clean quilts. Stay tuned for tomorrow…two more collection launches are coming your way!

The sunshine is out, the weather is beautiful, and we’ve got new collections to share! Today is the first day of our Summer 2015 Collections Launch Week!! Up first: our exciting Guardians of the Galaxy collection! The beloved Marvel superhero team have come to life in our action-packed fabric collection of your favorites including Star-Lord, Rocket Raccoon, Quasar, Adam Warlock, Gamora, Drax the Destroyer, and of course, Groot. Together they work to protect their world – such as the orb in the movie version – and are one super and powerful group!

Let the guardians take you on their next adventure with our collection – create a fun tote or some bed accessories (pillow covers and quilt) for the Marvel-enthusiast in your life (you included!). Our Farm Stand Quilt by Play Crafts showcases our Guardians of the Galaxy collection in a wonderful color gradation, and is available as a free project on our website.

We’re off to a good start for Summer, right? Click here to see our full Guardians of the Galaxy Collection. Stay tuned for another fun launch today…and all of this week. Lots of gorgeous colors and prints are headed your way!

Hi everyone,

Happy Monday! I hope you all had a lovely weekend. To all our Americans, hope you had an amazing 4th of July weekend! :)

Starting off our week with our Moody Monday! Today we are featuring our Skylanders Collection by the Camelot Design Studio. Skylanders is an interactive video game series that brings “toys to life”. Characters based on eight elemental categories – earth, magic, air, fire, water, life, teach, and undead – go through different adventures in the land of Skylands to defend their world from varying threats. The ultimate goal is protect the world of Skylands from “Kaos”, as the Skylanders want to maintain peace & balance in their world. Good over evil – very cool theme for a game, we think. Three additional series have since been introduced, as well as three new elements known as the Trap team (kaos, light, and dark). Our Skylanders Collection is a representation of the game that many gamers enjoy – from the beloved Skylanders characters to the bright blues & yellows, this is a really fun collection!

Diane Von Furstenberg’s Spring 2013 collection was elegant and classy, just as the designer herself. Splashes of blues and orange made this collection feel like summertime, like sipping on a orange julep by the water. There was a wonderful flow to every outfit, with lightweight fabrics of silk and chiffon to drape around the models. But of course, even with a summer-inspired collection, there was an effortless elegance and femininity to each piece. And of course, we can’t forget her infamous wrap dresses! We especially loved this jumpsuit, that was powerful and gorgeous, especially with the metallic belt. Another stunning collection from DVF!

We hope you have enjoyed today’s Moody Monday! We’d love to know what summer trends you are excited about. Any fun colours you’re excited to wear? Let us know. Have a relaxing rest of the day!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Friday! I hope you all are having a fantastic day. Have you entered our The Kitten’s Meow Giveaway yet? You’re going to love this one! We’re paw-sitive ;)

Ending another wonderful week with our Fan Friday. We LOVE when you tag us on Instagram, whether it be your adoration for one of our fabric collections or sharing a beautiful new project. Thank you to everyone who has, it seriously makes our day! Want to join in on the fun? We’re @camelot_fabrics…and you can also use the hashtag #camelotfabrics. An – lovely mother of 3, fabric addict, and lilac hair rocker – enjoys sewing adorable dresses and skirts for her girls. But of course, she also sews for herself!

She sewed the Lilou Dress, from Tilly and the Buttons’ “Love at First Stitch” book. The dress features a fitted bodice, thicker straps, and a full skirt – the perfect vintage/50s-inspired outfit. An chose to use our Botanical by Alisse Courter Collection, and we adore how the navy and mustard leaf-printed design looks as a full dress. The muted colours allow for a playful, yet classy look. An paired her dress with a mustard cardigan, and she is looking super stylish! 

Thank you so much, An, for the fabric love…and for sharing your wonderful project with us! This is An’s Instagram too, if you’d like to see the other beautiful things she has sewn. Have a fantastical weekend, everyone!!

Happy Sewing!
