Hi everyone,

 

 

 

Happy Tuesday! We hope everyone is bundled up and warm today – it’s another chilly one for us. As well, it’s the last day to enter our Elixir FQB Giveaway! You can enter here.

 

It’s time for our How To’s Day! Today we are sharing one of our projects from our Free Projects Program. One of our pattern designers, Kristy Daum, created a beautiful quilted pillow pattern for us called Around the Block. Create a couple of these pillows to add a pretty and modern flair to any bedroom or living space, and you will be living in a comfortable paradise! We love our Elixir Collection with this pillow too, the collection that we just so happen to be giving away this week! As usual, Kristy created an easy to work with and beautiful pillow pattern for us…thank you, Kristy :)

Hi everyone,

 

 

 

 

Happy Tuesday! We hope everyone is having a nice day. It’s super cold here today, but we’re enjoying the sunshine from indoors haha. Oh! And, as if we even needed a reason for cake, it’s National Chocolate Cake Day. Cake, we’re coming from you!

 

Time for this week’s How To’s Day! Today we’re bringing to you our super useful tutorial for a turning a seam to a slit, while avoiding any exposed edges. If you’ve ever wanted to create a slit at the back of a pencil skirt or simply wanted to alter a project by creating a slit, this From Seam to Slit tutorial will guide you in doing so, the easy way! The end result will be a clean seam, with the raw edges tucked away perfectly. And at the end of the tutorial, we’ve offered a cumulative jpeg of the steps that you can be printed out.

Hi everyone,

 

 

 

Happy Tuesday! Hope everyone is having a lovely day so far. Just to make your day even brighter, we’ve got our weekly Winsday on our Facebook Page. We are giving away some of our adorable Paddington Bear fabric!

 

Time for our How To’s Day! Today we are featuring our tutorial for our absolutely gorgeous Venn Placemats. Our Venn Placemats are the perfect mix between clean design aesthetic and keeping your surfaces, well, clean. We know that our mathematicians and designers will especially adore the style of our placemats. Have fun choosing different and unique print combinations! The simplicity and modernity of our Venn Placemats would work in any interior space. And because they are oh-so pretty, you’ll want to leave them as added decor on your dining table.

We offer two sizes of our Venn Placemat in this tutorial – a larger mat with the full Venn diagram look and a smaller mat, that is equally stunning. We chose to style ours with our Rise & Shine Collection, and think the blues, greys, and yellows would work wonderfully in any space.

Hi everyone,

 

 

 

 

Happy Thursday! We hope you all are having a great day so far. Have you entered our Paddington Bear Giveaway yet? We are giving away some Paddington Bear fabric in the heart of the movie coming out tomorrow!! Be sure to check it out and enter on our Facebook Page.

 

Time for this week’s Thankful Thursday! Today we are featuring one of our project designers, Sarah of Sarah Laws Made. Sarah is a modern quilter and artist from Portland, who absolutely adores all things creative and beautiful. She works from her home studio, and works in different mediums that allow her to let her creativity shine. She adores all things fresh and modern, which definitely shows in her project designs – screen-printing, quilting, and becoming a chocolatier are only some of her many talents. She shares her wonderful creations on her blog, Sarah Laws Made, and also on her Etsy Shop.

 

We were able to collaborate with the talented Sarah on a couple of quilt patterns for our Free Projects Program. We adored Sarah’s unique and funky style, and her quilt patterns definitely reflected that. Her first quilt, New Bohemian, is an intricate quilt design of squares and triangles that make up the coolest of patterns. We absolutely love how it looks with our Fresh Solids Collection, the bright colors going so well with one another.

The Diamond Emblem Quilt is definitely a favorite! The design is different and geometric, and looks so pretty with our Peacock Garden Collection. Both of these quilts would look fantastic in a modern bedroom or living room, either as a bed spread or even wall decor. How fabulous would these quilts look in a fun, boho-inspired room? Absolute gorgeousness!

We are so thrilled that we got to work with Sarah, and cannot wait for what’s to come in the future! At Camelot Fabrics, we have a unique style and think that Sarah’s designs are perfect representations of it. Thank you for the stunning quilt designs, Sarah!! You can find the free patterns for these projects on our website. You can also check out more from Sarah on her blog, Etsy, and Flickr. Have an inspired day, everyone! :)

 

 

 

 

Happy Sewing!

Yup, that’s right! It’s time for this week’s How To’s Day! Today we are featuring our beautiful No-Sew Pillow Tutorial.

This tutorial does not require a ton of time to make, so it’s a great project for transforming any interior space. Having guests over but want to quickly spruce up your living room? Need to film a pretty, but quick DIY project for a friend? Feeling crafty, but don’t have a sewing machine? This is the project for you! (…and anyone else just looking for a fun project to try! ;))

Make a plethora of them and pile them all together on the floor to lie in! So so comfy! As well, we shared our No-Sew Pillow with our Pastel Me More Collection – the colors are fresh, happy, and exuberant – but this pillow would look amazing with any print.
