Welcome!

Hi everyone,

Happy Friday! We hope you all had an awesome week!! Today is Friday the 13th…ooh! Is anyone superstitious or have any ‘freaky Friday” stories to share? As for something not so scary, we’re hosting our Scented FQ Bundle Giveaway on our Facebook Page! Be sure to head on over there to enter! :)

It’s time for this week’s Fan Friday! Today we are featuring some incredibly beautiful quilts created by the talented Sharon Challenger, of ShaShaLaRue Quilts. ShaShaLaRue Quilts is Sharon’s online Etsy Shop, a place where she shares her latest quilt creations, all handmade – and made with love. Sharon’s quilt esthetic is modern and colorful, and she shares a multitude of different quilt styles for boys and girls, babies and toddlers. She mentions that quilts can be used for so many things – as playmats, for tummy time, for a picnic at the park, on the beach, for cuddling with on the sofa, or when you need a hug – and we couldn’t agree more. There’s nothing more comforting than snuggling up with a cozy quilt – and some pretty fabric!

Sharon chose our Rise & Shine Collection to create some amazing quilts for her shop. We found her through Instagram, and just had to share! The first is her geometric Triangle Quilt – our yellow, turquoise, and grey designs working perfectly together in the interchanging triangles pattern. Soso pretty and would make for the perfect gift for a mama-to-be!

Sharon also created a quilt designed by Andrea Johnson, from the book “Modern Designs for Classic Quilts”, featuring Rise & Shine. Loving how the quilt still looks fresh and light, perfect for a nursery or little nugget’s room! Her quilts have a modern and crisp look, so they are also perfect for a home that is more contemporary or current in esthetic.

We are so happy that you love our Rise & Shine Collection, Sharon. Thank you for the fabric love, and for sharing them with us on Instagram. Be sure to check out more from Sharon at her Etsy Shop // ShaShaLaRue Quilts, on Facebook, and on Instagram. And with that…another week has come and gone! Have a fantastic weekend, everyone! :)

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Friday! We hope everyone had a fantastic first week of March. It’s Spring Forward this Sunday, so be sure to change your clocks an hour ahead! Yup, we’re going to be “losing” an hour, but we’ll have longer, brighter nights!!

Time to end another week with our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring a beautiful Frolicking Forest quilt that we found on Instagram, from Ashley Tabatha Quilts. Ashley used the green and blue designs in our Frolicking Forest Collection to create the sweetest of baby quilts. We adore how she used orange, ric-rac trimming and binding to outline each of the fabric blocks – the perfect accent color to match our adorable little foxes. We hope the lucky nugget who gets to snuggle in this fox quilt will sleep with happy and sweet dreams!

Thank you so much, Ashley, for sharing your Frolicking Forest Quilt with us! We absolutely love it and hope the lucky baby, who gets to cuddle up with it, adores it too. You can find more of Ashley’s sewing and quilting creations on Instagram. And, if you create a project with our fabric or with one of our Free Projects, you can always send us an email to info@camelotfabrics.com or tag us on our Instagram. Have an amazing weekend!

Hi everyone,

Happy Friday!! It’s the end of the week! We are looking forward to staying IN this weekend..soso cold. It was definitely a trek coming into the office this morning with the blowing snow and -30C temperatures – BRR!

Ending our week with our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring a lovely pillow with our Let’s Go by Andrea Turk Collection. Fili & Lino is a blog by two crafty girls who met through the interwebs! We love that!! Together they created a blog to share their passion for crafting & sewing. They feature fantastic tutorials, their latest project adventures, and have an Etsy Shop for custom orders. They also post their latest creations on Instagram, where we saw their Let’s Go Pillow. Instant joy from us! We adore the feather print in our Let’s Go Collection, and think it looks fantastic as an accent pillow. Perfect for accessorizing a bed or tub chair!

Thanks so much for the tag, girls! We’re obsessed with your Let’s Go pillow and think you have a lovely blog. You can find more from Fili & Lino on their blog, Facebook Page, Twitter, and Instagram. And that’s about it for this week. Have a wonderful weekend!! :)

Hi everyone,

Happy Friday! Woot woot for it being the end of the week! We’ve made it through our first week of February…it can only get better (weather wise!) from here. Cold fingers and toes crossed!

Time to end our week with our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring some awesome Beyond the Backyard projects made by Reece Montgomery. We were tagged on Instagram by Reece, and when we saw her pictures, we had a “oh-my-good-so-cute” moment lol. We absolutely adore the projects that Reece decided to create with our floral and leaf, Spring-inspired collection. She also featured these projects on her blog, Happy Okapi, which you can check out here. In addition to sharing her projects on her blog, she is Canadian-based (like us!!) and shares upcoming fabric collections & sales!

She used Swoon Sewing Patterns’ Dorothy Day Tripper pattern to create a stunning Beyond the Backyard bag – the pattern that actually features our Design Studio Collection as its front image! She also made some other cool accessories with Beyond the Backyard – a coffee cozie, a couple of key fobs, and an eyeglasses pouch. We love how versatile our collection is, and that it looks so great in each project!!

Thanks so much, Reece, for the tag! You can find more from Reece on her blog and Instagram. And with that, we are ready to rock this weekend! Have a great one, everyone!! :)

Happy Sewing!
