Welcome!

Time for our What We Love #17 ♥ Today we bring to a collection of cute and beautiful things that have been inspiring the Camelot Design Studio as of late. It’s officially the first week of Autumn, so of course we have been transitioning our clothing, shoes, and drinks (PSLs!) to fit the season. We are so excited for apple and pumpkin picking, hay rides, Halloween, plaid everything, and sweater weather! We’re sharing some light-hearted goodies with you all, that is sure to put everyone is a great mood, such as this adorable grill cheese eating bear and this alligator joke. On to the rest of what we love…  ♥

It’s time for our What We Love #16 ♥ This week on our Pinterest Boards, we (the Camelot Design Studio) have been busy pinning away all the things that have inspired us most. We have been greatly been influenced by intricate and unique patterns & bold colorways. As Fall is quickly approaching, our inspirations have started to lean more towards cozier and richer images, getting us ready for the colder season. We absolutely adore this print of the Moon and Earth, these stunning marmalade jars, these enticing textile moths by Yumi Okita, this amazing textiles shop in Colombia, and plaid/pleather combinations for Autumn. Check out our images for even more visual prettiness… ♥

It’s time for What We Love #15 ♥ This week, we’re trying to brighten things up a bit here with COLOR! As we are approaching fall weather, it does not mean that we should neglect all the pretty colors. The latest issue of Uppercase Magazine is all about color – each section inspired by and representing different shades of the rainbow. It’s such a beautiful source of creative energy to flip through. Carrying on with even more brightness, we love the idea of turning something ordinary into something extraordinary. For example: creating fruit out of balloons, freezing edible flowers into popsicles, adding a punch of color to a phone, and cool art encompassing everyday surroundings. We think it’s amazing how something so basic can become even more beautiful, with small changes; there’s something truly remarkable about that…

Time for this week’s What We Love #13!! As always, we have been pinning what we love most on our Pinterest Boards. From creative DIY projects to delicious food to just cuteness, we’ve probably pinned it (haha). This week, we have been inspired by so many things – Fall is quickly approaching us, and we’ve been noticing autumn favorites showing up (ie. Starbucks’ PSL? Um, yum!). Not that we’re over Summer, we definitely could use another month of hot weather, but we’re also excited for all things that Fall will bring.

Our What We Love today is a mix of everything, sort of encapsulating Dr. Suess’ quote “we’re all a little weird…”. We definitely concur; where’s the fun if there is no weirdness? This week, we inspire you to embrace your weirdness…because being weird and embracing weirdness is how we should be ♥

We hope we have inspired you with this week’s What We Love. Embrace your weirdness! Remember, we are always pinning away on our Pinterest Board, so be sure to check out our boards for even more daily inspiration ♥

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!

Happy Sewing!
