Welcome!

Hi everyone!

Happy Friday! I hope you all are having a fantastic one. Woohoo – it’s just about the weekend!!

Ending our week with our Fan Friday! Today we are sharing the most precious of dresses, made by Chonte Simmons of DaeMoo & Co. DaeMoo & Co. started when Chonte wanted to her daughters to dress uniquely, while accessorizing and expressing their individual girly styles with bracelets, necklaces, and other fun accessories. Pursuing her own love for handbags, she started to design and make her own – along with diaper bags – and her business continued to blossom from there. Now she designs and sells all sort of unique pieces for both mommy and kids. Her shop name is inspired by her daughters, Journey (Dae) and Jordyn (Moo), and adores all the pretty fabric (especially anything sparkly!).

Chonte recently came across our Love Letters by Jane Farnham collection. Inspired by the sweet patterns and muted colors, she chose to make an adorable tea-styled little girl’s dress. We love how she chose to create a dress out of the gift tag print, and complimented it perfectly with a pastel peach peter pan collar & sash. And the lace trim – so feminine and pretty! We just adore this dress, and can imagine a darling little girl twirling around in this dress!

Thank you so much, Chonte, for the fabric love and for sharing it with us on Instagram! What a lovely treat to end the week… Have a fantastic weekend everyone! :)

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone!

Happy Thursday! We hope everyone is having a terrific day so far. We cannot believe that we are in the last few days of August, but are excited for the long weekend.

For this week’s Thankful Thursday, we are featuring one of newest, favourite sewing magazines: Love Patchwork & Quilting. Love Patchwork & Quilting is a modern quilting magazine based in the UK dedicated to bringing us fresh, inspiring, and bold projects. They’re a relatively new magazine (they are on their 11th edition), but have quickly become number one in the UK – with good reason! They love to showcase new, fresh fabric collections and collaborate with awesome project designers.

As you turn to each page, there’s always something to catches your eye and inspire you. Their pages are filled with beautiful images, helpful tips & tricks, inspiring projects and fabric collections. There’s something for everyone, from quilting projects to smaller project ideas; even those who are intimidated by sewing will feel encouraged. As well, each issue features a free, mini project to follow along to, to make your very own craft. You can’t help but get inspired and happy flipping through an issue of Love Patchwork & Quilting, and their editor Jenny Fox-Proverbs definitely makes that happen!

We were so thrilled when we saw that our Love Letters by Jane Farnham Collection was featured in their latest edition, in their Love Life section, which is dedicated to celebrating the fabric of life. If you flip to page 13, you’ll see a very familiar collection – Love Letters! There’s a fantastic writeup on the collection, and we are so happy that it was chosen as one of their favorites this month. Our Love Letters Collection embodies cherishing your loved ones, and embracing your time with them, so we definitely think it fits perfectly with the theme.

We want to say a big thank you to Jenny and Love Patchwork & Quilting for featuring our Love Letters by Jane Farnham Collection. Love Patchwork & Quilting is a stunning magazine, so we definitely feel honored to be included. We absolutely adore Jane and her beautiful designs, and are so happy to call her one of our own, so it’s so wonderful to see the amazing response.

You can check out more from Love Patchwork & Quilting on their website, Facebook, Pinterest, and Twitter. We can’t wait to see what’s next! Have a fantastic day, everyone!

Hi everyone!

Happy Monday! We hope you all had a restful, fun weekend! :) Here’s to another lovely week! Have you entered our Pinterest Giveaway yet? We are giving away a Petite Plume by Andrea Turk FQ Bundle this week, so be sure to enter HERE! :)

It’s time for our Moody Monday! Today we are inspiring you with our Love Letters by Jane Farnham for Camelot Fabrics Collection! There are oh-so many things that we love here at the Camelot Design Studio: pretty tulle skirts, adorable furry animals, glitter, all things ruffled…and of course, fabric! ;) You can also see more of what we love on our Pinterest Board, What We Love! Love Letters is all about just that, love, and showing the ones you love how much you appreciate them. This collection is a stunning palette of pink, navy, turquoise, and soft green hues decorated in kitsy hearts, twigs, and floral patterns. One awesome SKU in this collection is the Gift Tags, which can be used for gifting to all the loved ones to your heart’s content. The Alphabet design is a fun way to personalize a quilt or other project, either with a meaningful saying or name! Love Letters is the perfect collection for sharing those three little words with the ones you care about, in a very special way.

We are so inspired by our Love Letters by Jane Farnham Collection! One Spring RTW 2014 collection that especially encapsulates the essence of Love Letters is that of Burberry Prorsum’s! This collection is absolutely stunning with its mint, pink, and lavender color palette in soft chiffon and lace. What especially sparks our love affair with this collection is the bejewelled details that are so bold, but beautiful and eye-catching! We love a good statement piece or bit of sparkle!! We especially love this ensemble, as well as this one. So delicate and so pretty! Be sure to check out the full Burberry Prorsum Collection HERE!

Thanks for reading this week’s Moody Monday! Have a beautiful rest of the day, everyone! :)

Happy Sewing!

Day TWO of our Spring 2014 Collections Launch Week! Ohhh there are soo many more delicious colors and prints to come. Today we are sharing two of Jane Farnham’s collections. It’s a Jane Farnham day! First up is…Love Letters!

Brimming with stunning pastel colors, hearts, and soft florals…Love Letters is the perfect collection to tell that special someone how much you love them. The ethereal geranium, blues, and greens captivate femininity and sweetness…and remind us of blooming, freshly cut flowers. This collection includes fabric tags that you can use to finish a project or to personalize a gift, with messages such as “with love” and “to, from”. As well, you can customize a quilt or project with the individual alphabets – spell out someone’s name or write a personalized, pretty message!

With today’s technology, it’s easy for people to send a text or email…but remember the days when you would receive a card in the mail? Those were the best, being excited to receive something in the post. Love Letters brings us back to those nostalgic, “good ol’ days” – take a little bit more time to personalize a message to the ones you love, and it will mean so much more. Love Letters is the epitome of ‘pretty’, and we think a sweetheart, tea dress or little clutch with this collection would be the perfect outfit for a Spring party!

We hope you adore Love Letters by Jane Farnham just as much as we do!! So much prettiness! You can check out our free projects with Love Letters here, here, here, here, here, here, and here. Also be sure to find Jane on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. One more from Jane Farnham coming later today…so stay tuned! :)
