Hi everyone!
It’s Friday…TGIF!! We hope everyone has had a fantastic work week, but we are definitely ready for some weekend adventures. With today officially being mid-November, there really is no escaping the coming Winter season but there are lots of enjoyable, cold-weather activities to do that will be sure to warm you up (well, warm your heart and soul at least hehe). Here’s to a blissful, fun-filled season!
Today we’ve got another great fan project to share with you for Fan Friday. Fiona Ryan created her own dress pattern (we are so beyond amazed!!) and used our Star Wars Spaceships design as her fabric of choice. Take a look at the pretty pieces lined up, all ready to be sewn!
The dress that Fiona created is a beautiful, vintage-inspired design with a sweetheart bustier top and halter-style straps. The dress is elegantly finished off with three white buttons and some white pipping along the neckline. The finished dress with our Star Wars Spaceships fabric came out flawlessly, and Fiona looks absolutely stunning in it!
Thank you so much Fiona for sharing your AH-MAZING self-made dress with us. We’re so flattered you chose our Star Wars fabric. Be sure to check out this crafty lady’s other creative projects on her Twitter and Facebook pages. We hope you have enjoyed this week’s Fan Friday and are as inspired as we are!
PS: Have you seen yesterday’s Winsday? You could win our Birds of a Feather FQ Bundle by telling us what you would create with the fabric. Comment and enter on the blog post here. Good luck! We will be announcing the winner on next week’s Winsday post.
Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone!
It’s Friday!! We hope that you have all had a fabulous week. Some things we are looking forward to this weekend are mastering the perfect mini apple tartlets, creating a playlist of upbeat old-and-new holiday songs, DIYing something (or everything!) with glitter, and taking a lovely afternoon walk in the brisk but beautiful fall weather. What are your plans for the weekend?
For today’s Fan Friday, we are sharing with you a project by Sondra Blank. She used our Superman Man of Steel flannel to create a super-hero worthy crib sheet for her little one. The mattress cover is brilliant, and our Superman flannel design fits perfectly with her boy’s blue and green color-schemed bedroom. This is one crib sheet that would make any superhero-in-training happy!
In correlation with all things boys, have you checked out Mdm Samm’s Boy Blog Hop yet? We are the official sponsor, and you could win one of our three boy-inspired fabric bundles! Be sure to check out the Sew We Quilt Blog here for all updates and information. Be sure to check out all the amazing boy-inspired projects!
PS: If you have created a project using any of our fabrics and would love to be featured in a future Fan Friday post, please email us at info@camelotfabrics.com or @mention us on twitter. We LOVE seeing all of your incredible projects using our fabric designs!
Thank you so much, Sondra, for sharing your project with us! Wishing everyone a lovely weekend.
Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone!
October has officially come to an end…Happy November! We are SO excited for all the holiday excitement and cheer that will soon be encapsulating the frosty air. Our November To-Do List includes listening to holiday music (never too early!), baking lots of pumpkin and apple pie, sitting by the fireplace with a good book, supporting all the men participating in Movember, and of course, starting to decorate the office with a garland…or two! And to kick-start this wonderful November, it’s time for another Fan Friday.
Today we are featuring two projects by Another Eternity using our Star Wars fabric…a zippered pillow and a drawstring bag! Check below for some pictures:
They are super well done, and the perfect projects for any Star Wars enthusiast! Thank you so much, Another Eternity, for sharing your Star Wars projects with us!!
If you have created a project using any of our fabrics and would love to be featured in a future Fan Friday post, please email us at info@camelotfabrics.com or @mention us on twitter. We LOVE seeing all of you incredible projects using our fabric designs!

Hi everyone!
Welcome to another Fan Friday post!! This also means that today is Friday…the last day before the weekend (hooray!!). Let’s celebrate the last day of the work week by sharing another amazing fan project with you all.
Erin Erickson recently shared with us her Two Zip Hipster Bag using one of our Star Wars fabric designs. When we clicked on the link and saw the picture, we instantly fell head over heels for the bag (and using our fabric, nonetheless!) – we just had to share!!
[Quoted by Erin on her blog: I love Camelot Fabrics. Camelot are you listening? You make my geeky side so happy! – You made us super happy. We LOVE hearing all of your positive feedback so to that we say a big thank you Erin for the love!! <3]
Erin is the pattern maker and founder of Dog Under My Desk PDF Sewing Patterns. She has fantastic, easy-to-follow patterns for all your bag needs (daytripper, makeup, lunch, and more!). You can check them all out in her store by clicking here! Erin also has a correlating blog where she posts informative and creative tutorials, interfacing and pattern tips, giveaways, and fun updates.
Erin made her Two Zip Hipster Bag for one of her friends, Lisa, who is a big Star Wars fan and she chose our Star Wars Blue Schematic fabric for it! Lisa wanted her bag to be iPad-friendly, so Erin made the bag pattern a bit bigger…and tada! It came out looking pretty fantastic. You can check out the full post on the bag here. Now on to some pictures!!
