Camelot Fabrics has got felt!! We have been super excited to have expanded to the crafting world with our Ad-Fab™ and felt (hard, soft, & adhesive). We wanted to share with you some easy, fun, and kid-friendly “10 Steps or Less” projects that you can do at home. Be sure to check for your Camelot Fabrics felt in your local stores soon.

Today we are sharing our first felt tutorial with you all! When we think of Summer, we think of sunshine, BBQs, pool parties, and delicious drinks. What’s more summer-y than lemonade or a lime refresher? Yum! We love all things citrus – beautiful, bright, and happy colors that liven any space! We are sharing our Felt Sliced Citrus Party Tags Tutorial with you today, which will be perfect for your upcoming Summer party!

These tags are absolutely adorable, and while they help you tag items, they also add a wonderful splash of decor to your table. Use these to label your food, drinks, or for seating arrangements – keep your party organized and festive!! Our felt makes these tags stylish and modern, and the chalkboard fabric segment makes them reusable.

When life gives your lemons, make lemonade and have a party!! Click HERE for the full tutorial of our Sliced Citrus Party Tags!

Hi everyone!

Happy Tuesday!! This week is our Summer 2014 Collections Launch Week, and we hope you have been enjoying our launched collections thus far. We have been posting a new collection everyday: Monday was our Paddington Bear Collection by the Camelot Design Studio, and today we launched It’s a Bird’s Life by Heather Rosas. Be sure to check out our previous blog posts on them, as well as the full collections and coordinating free projects on our website.

We have been branching into the crafting world, and now have a wonderful collection of felt! We have soft felt (printed and solid designs), hard felt (printed and solid), and adhesive felt (printed and solid) in 12×12″ pre-cuts – perfect for all your crafting and decorative needs. Our soft felt is also available by the yard, both in our printed and solid designs. Be sure to check all of our pretty felt designs and colors on our website!

In honor of our felt, we have got a very adorable and fun tutorial for this week’s How To’s Day. Today we are sharing with you our super sweet Basket of Fruits Tutorial. With all the delicious colors found in our felt collection, we were inspired to make something yummy (with names such as Melon, Raspberry, Bubblegum, and Chocolate…how couldn’t we be?). Our little fruit basket includes all of your favorites – a slice of watermelon, a banana, a pear, an apple, and a lemon – so sweet that they look almost good enough to eat.

This  felt and ad-fab™  project is perfect for playing with your little ones or for decorating a kitschy room. This would also be a great project to make with little kids; let them choose their favorite fruits and they can help cut out the shapes and glue on the pieces! It would be a fun way to spend an afternoon together. The fruit possibilities are endless, so have fun with this tutorial, and make your very own basket of yummy fruits!

Hi everyone!

Happy Thursday! We hope everyone is having a lovely day so far. Have you seen our last Winsday? We are currently giving away a Betty Boop FQ Bundle this week! Click here to enter by telling us what outfit makes you feel the most confident :)

Today is Thursday, which means it’s time for another Thankful Thursday post on the blog. We experienced our first Craft & Hobby Show this year, and it was absolutely fantastic. We had such a wonderful time! You can check out our CHA 2014 Show blog post for more on what we had been up to. We met so many lovely bloggers and crafters who gave us such positive feedback on our newest products, such as our felt and Ad-Fab™! Some crafters even took some back to their stations to test them on silhouette and die-cutting machines, with great reviews back.

We wanted to thank everyone who took the time to test out our products at the show, as well as those who mentioned us on their blogs! It was so great getting to meet everyone, so thank you for the kind words. ♥

Craft Test Dummies noticed that “sticky” products seemed to be a continuous theme at the show, and loved our adhesive felt and Ad-Fab™.

Dinah, from DIY Inspired, enjoyed our Make & Take and Chalkboard Photobooth stations and looked super adorable with our felt glasses!

Our Make & Take section let visitors create their very own coffee cozies with our Ad-Fab™. With our Ad-Fab™, making a coffee cozie is such a quick and simple project that can jazz up any coffee cup instantly! Love the one you made, Tori!

Angie, from The Country Chic Cottage , was super impressed with our new felt line and mentioned on her blog that our felt “is definitely the prettiest felt I have ever seen…ever.  I love” – We definitely concur!! :) Look how pretty our felt is all stacked up together!

Crafty Deaf Dog Mama wrote up a blog post focusing on silhouette products at the CHA. She was one of the crafters who tested our products for us, and gave her feedback on the blog post. She mentions that our hard and soft felts work perfectly with her silhouette, and cut some pretty hearts from it. So happy she enjoyed our products! You can read the full blog post for more here.

As well, we wanted to thank Fave Crafts Blog for the sweet Chalkboard Booth mention in their CHA recap post, and No Idle Hands Here for listing us in her “up and comers to the crafting industry” – So happy you stopped by and enjoyed our products!

Thank you so much to the wonderful ladies for mentioning us, our felt and Ad-Fab™ products, our Make & Take and Chalkboard Booth, and for the great feedback – We truly appreciate it! As well, if you have mentioned us on your blog, we’d love to hear from you! Have a fantastic rest of the day everyone :)

Happy Sewing!
