Hi everyone!

 

 

 

Happy Monday!! We hope you all had a fantastic weekend. Happy Memorial Day to all our American friends! Have you seen our latest How To’s Day? We posted a tutorial for a stunning Lattice Table Runner that would be the perfect centerpiece for all the upcoming Summer parties. Find the free tutorial here!

 

It’s time to start another great week with our Moody Monday! Today we are inspiring you with one of our Spring 2014 Collections…Folklore by Heather Rosas for Camelot Fabrics. Folklore is an exquisite collection of ruby, turquoise, and cream hues to create a very happy and modern look. The designs in this collection include sweet birds, fluttery leaves, and a multitude of spring florals – daisies, roses, and tulips!

There is a Scandinavian feel of the designs in Folkore, but the brighter colors make it very fresh and on-trend. We can imagine a perfect Farmer’s Tote, a precious apron for the baking enthusiast, or a playful dress with the turquoise & red hues of Folklore!

One collection that has a similar essence to Folkore is Antonio Berardi’s Spring 2014 collection. The soft hues of creams, nudes, and pinks make this collection very pretty and fluttery, especially with the sheer and delicate fabrics. We especially adore the floral detailing, with the subdued metallic accents. This collection is very feminine and dainty, and we love the juxtaposition of the bohemian-inspired hairstyle and bold red lips. This collection reminds us of our Folklore by Heather Rosas Collection with its beautiful floral details, muted creams and pinks, and boho-vibe. You can check out the full collection HERE! We hope you have enjoyed this week’s Moody Monday!

It’s time for another Spring 2014 collection launch!! The next Spring collection we are sharing with you is…Folklore by Heather Rosas!

 

Heather Rosas’ Folklore is the epitome of festive happiness with its eclectic color palette of poppy red and bright turquoise. The colors together create a unique combination that is both modern and folk-inspire, with the leaves, floral blooms, and bird prints. With a Scandinavian influence, this collection is vivacious and charismatic, reminding us of festival season and our love for the outdoors. This collection reminds us that we need to start planning our Summer garden party! We can imagine a beautiful Farmer’s Market tote (imagine picking up fresh produce & cut flowers with this collection?), a cute summer frock, or some cloth napkins for your Summer gatherings!

Hi everyone!

 

 

 

 

Happy Monday! We hope you all had a fantastic and loving Mother’s Day weekend. It was absolutely gorgeous here this weekend, the weather was pristine, and we are hoping it only continues like this! We are also launching our new Spring 2014 collections this week, so there will be extra blog posts today, but we are keeping our regular schedule too. Lots of goodies for you to read/see this week!

 

It’s time for this week’s Moody Monday! Today we are sharing our Whoo’s Cute by Heather Rosas moodboard with you all. This collection is soft, cuddly, and innocently adorable. As the name suggests, this is a fun, owl-printed collection featuring woodland-sy branches, leaves, and acorns! Whoo’s Cute features a warm mix of pinks and blues, along with brown and green to match the woodsy theme. The owls are friendly and kind, and the soft patterns make this collection perfect for a girl or boy nursery, or for a couple of sweet, Spring dresses. Whoo’s Cute by Heather Rosas is also available in both cotton and flannel.

Keeping in the theme of all things magical and kid-friendly, Disney’s Maleficent is coming to a screen near you soon! We are just so excited, being uber Disney fans at the Camelot Design Studio, so we will definitely be watching this movie when it hits theaters. We all know the story of Sleeping Beauty, but now it’s the evil queen’s time to shine. The Maleficent movie will dig deeper into the Evil Queen’s reasoning behind casting a sleeping spell on Princess Aurora. What’s even more amazing is that Angelina Jolie will be Maleficent, Ella Fanning will play Aurora. We can’t wait! You can check out the full trailer here! The movie will be in theaters later this month.

 

We hope you have enjoyed this week’s Moody Monday! I know there were quite a few blog posts today, so we hope things aren’t too confusing. If you missed them, please check out our Star Wars III, Ultimate Spider-Man II, and Girl Power II blog posts about each collection in more depth. We really hope you enjoy our new Spring 2014 collections; there’s more to come this week! :)

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!

Congratulations to the mommy-to-be; we hope she and her baby boy will enjoy this Lil Monsters Quilt as much as we adore it. You can find out more on Julie’s blog here. Have a great weekend everyone!

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 :)
