Welcome!

Hi everyone,

Happy Thursday! We hope everyone is having a terrific day so far. We are inching closer to the weekend, which means it’s just about Quilt Market time!! If you are going to be there, be sure to stop by booth #1824 to say hello! Come check out our new collections, our wonderful projects & set-up, and our designers. It’s going to be so much fun! Hope to see you there!!

Today we are bringing to you our Thankful Thursday! We are featuring an amazing quilting magazine, the only Canadian quilt-based read… Quilter’s Connection Magazine! Quilter’s Connection is all about sharing the latest and greatest there is in the quilting world, from new fabric collections to featured project tutorials to perfecting techniques. They will share upcoming, Canadian quilt shows and festivals, and share their current favorite fabrics, notions, and supplies. They have a lovely mix of quilt projects in both modern and more classic fabrics. As well, because they are Canadian-based and proud, they like to highlight Canadian companies and designers…a wonderful treat for fellow Canadian, sewing enthusiasts! And as their motto goes, “we are a truly Canadian magazine – for quilters, by quilters.”

Quilter’s Connection featured our Fresh Solids in their latest issue for Fall 2014 in their “Favourite Finds” Section. Our stack looks oh-so pretty in print, almost as lovely as they do in real life. We are so thrilled that Quilter’s Connection adores our Fresh Solids Collection! And as a bonus, we’re also Canadian…so it is even more special to be featured in a home-based publication for quilting!

Thank you Quilter’s Connection for the fabric love! You can get your copy of Quilter’s Connection on their website. You can also find them on their blog, Facebook, and Twitter. Have a great rest of the day, everyone! :)

Happy Sewing!

We will be at Fall Quilt Market in Houston this weekend! If you’ll be there, be sure to stop by our booth #1824 to say hi! Hope to see you there!! :)

Time for our What We Love #21 ♥ We absolutely love the fall time, but sometimes it can get a little depressing in weather. Constant gloomy and rainy days can bring a damper to our mood, so we like to turn to Pinterest for inspiring pictures (and the occasional scenic beach picture haha) to lift us up. We have been inspired by lots of pretty, creative, and yummy things this week and today we share our favorites with you… ♥

Marion: Loui Jover; Pen and Ink Drawing “Metropolitain”
Valeria: Hola! Bear by Alex Alferink
Vanessa: Edible Typography Macarons
Juan: Painting by John Singer Sargent
Shannen: Chunky Knits

We hope you have enjoyed our “most loved” pins this week. We would love to know what you have been loving most this week. Sometimes when we’re feeling down, there’s nothing like getting creative and then feeling inspired!

Hi everyone,

Happy Wednesday! We hope you are all doing well today. If you missed our last post, we shared our beautiful foldover wedding clutch with our Nightfall Collection. You can find the full, free tutorial for our clutch here. It’s a stunner!

It’s also time to announce this week’s Winsday winner! Last week we hosted our Imaginarium FQ Bundle Giveaway on our Facebook Page, and the responses were so overwhelmingly sweet and wonderful. We are so happy that everyone loves the colors and prints of our Imaginarium collection. We asked you what you would create with this adorable collection, and we had such a blast reading all of your ideas. From baby quilts to advent calendars, we loved them all. Our followers truly are so creative! But of course, we can only choose one winner…and the lucky winner of our Imaginarium FQB is…

Congratulations, Angela Birdwell!! You will be receiving our Imaginarium FQB and we really hope you have fun creating with it. We’d love to know what you make! Please send your mailing address to info@camelotfabrics.com by October 29th, 2014. A BIG thank you to everyone who participated in our giveaway. Until next Winsday…

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Tuesday!! We hope everyone is having a lovely day. You can definitely feel the frost in the air today. We’ve had a couple of “sweater weather” days, but now have been abruptly hit with the cold haha. Oh well. There are so many exciting things ahead – Quilt Market, Halloween, and Christmas. It’s also the last day to enter our giveaway! You can enter HERE for a chance to win an Imaginarium FQ Bundle!

It’s time for this week’s How To’s Day! We have been excitedly packing up everything for Fall Quilt Market, getting all our projects (in-house and outsourced) ready for the booth. We cannot wait to share all of our projects, but we have decided to give some little sneak peeks. Today we are featuring our Foldover Wedding Clutch in our Nightfall Collection. This absolutely stunning foldover clutch is the perfect little accessory for a Girls’ Night Out, Date Night, or any other glam event. Perfect in size to fit all your essentials – cell phone, lipstick, and money – this clutch will add some extra pizzazz to any outfit. The foldover design makes it super easy and convenient to use, and the wrap-around string is another unique detail.

We have previously shown this foldover clutch with our Neon & On Collection, which is a perfect statement piece for the summertime, but as we transition to fall and winter, our clothing choices and accessories are, in correlation to the weather, also getting darker.

We love our foldover wedding clutch with our Nightfall Collection because it’s so chic and glam, especially with the gold detailings. This clutch would be perfect with an LBD, but also with any other color because the gold really does pop! This clutch would be a perfect bridesmaid’s or birthday gift, especially along with our Trellis Edged Robe (free tutorial here).

We hope you have enjoyed this week’s How To’s Day feature. You can find the full, free tutorial for our Foldover Wedding Clutch on our blog, as well as the free PDF printout. We’d love to know what you would pair with our foldover wedding clutch in Nightfall, as well as what your ideal night out would be. Have a great day, everyone!

Happy Sewing!
