Hi everyone!

 

 

 

 

Happy Friday!! Great way to the end the week with a pretty day – a lovely change from the wind and rain we’ve been getting lately. There are also two more days until #StarWarsDay and in honor of May the 4th, we are hosting a Glow-in-the-Dark Star Wars fabric giveaway on our Facebook Page – Click here to enter!

 

To round up another wonderful week, we have our Fan Friday for you all today! Marion Omont used our Fleece Fox Hat & Tail Tutorial to create an absolutely adorable fleece fox hat and tail for her son. Marion’s son had a school carnival to attend and the kids were able to dress up! She remembered seeing our fox hat & tail tutorial on our Pinterest – a project she had wanted to make for a while but never got the chance to. She showed the costume idea to her son, who eagerly approved, and in a couple of hours his fox costume was created! Finishing the look with a cute nose and some whiskers, Marion’s son is one of the most precious foxes we have ever seen!

Hi everyone!

 

 

 

 

Happy Friday! It’s time to round out the week with our Fan Friday post! Today we are sharing a very cute and sweet pattern shop, Create Kids Couture. Shannon and Tiffany are the two creative ladies behind Create Kids Couture, a fun pattern boutique that started in July 2011 with only 5 patterns. From there, the boutique quickly grew in popularity and have now expanded to over 300 patterns for babies, women, tweens, boys, dolls, and more! With Create Kids Couture, they strive to create patterns that are both easy to follow and pretty – ruffles and anything girly are a must!

 

Inspiration for their designs is often sparked from their daughters’ tastes and surroundings, but for their Ginger’s One Shoulder Dress, they were inspired by our In The Navy by Jackie McFee collection! So sweet so hear, and it seriously made our WEEK! The goal was to create a dress with the fabric collection that was summery and showcased a multitude of designs…and we definitely think they succeeded! The tiered design of this maxi dress is super lovely and we adore the bottom ruffled layer (we agree that one can never wear too many ruffles or color!). The pattern also comes with a top version, which is fantastic. This is the perfect cruise or garden party dress for a sweet, little girl!

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!

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? :)

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.

Hi everyone!

 

 

 

 

Happy Friday! That’s right…it’s Friday!! Remember when we said that we were excited that the weather was getting nicer yesterday? Well, we woke up to SNOW this morning. Madness. It’s the end of March, and we are still getting Winter weather! Let’s hope it all melts away before April comes! :)

 

It’s time for this week’s Fan Friday post! Today we are sharing with you a couple of adorable baby quilts sewn by Heather K. The two baby quilts use different color-ways from our Day at the Zoo Collection, one highlighting the rustic orange bark design and the other mixing greens & blues. The craftsmanship of the quilts is stunning, and the choice in quilt patterns are so lovely! It goes perfectly with the collection. Our Day at the Zoo Collection features charming lions, owls, hippos, and other friendly critters with a mix of neutral colours that would be perfect for any baby- or kid-friendly project.

 

Heather made these two quilts for two cousins who each have baby boys. Noland was born in January and another cousin adopted an infant, Michael, last Fall. Heather is from a big Irish, Catholic family, and her and her cousins were all the first born daughters! She decided to make baby quilts for the newest little ones in the family – such a sweet gift! :)

We are big cat lovers here at Camelot Fabrics, so this photo just warms our hearts!! Heather’s kittie, Steve McQueen (umm, epic name by the way!), definitely approves of the quilts, shown here helping Heather with the binding:

Thank you so much for sharing the quilts with us, Heather!! Have a great weekend :)

 

 

 

Happy Sewing!
