Hi everyone!!

 

 

It’s time for another How To’s Day! Halloween is quickly approaching (in 8 days!!), and we wanted to share with you a fun and easy DIY project that you can make in time for the spooky holiday. This DIY project is absolutely delightful and would be the perfect costume for any youngster (but it can be modified for adults too, of course!!).

 

This DIY Halloween tutorial will show you how to make a fantastic fox hat and tail using our fleece, which is perfect for this costume (psst: our Fleece and Flannel catalogues are out; you can check them out online here and here respectively!). What does the fox say? Who really knows…but if we did, we are sure they would approve of our DIY fox costume!

 

 

Now take a gander at these dashing foxes below. They are looking pretty adorable in their fox costumes…all ready to go Trick or Treating!!

Hi everyone!

 

 

 

I hope you all are having a fantastic Tuesday so far!! We are getting super excited for Quilt Market here (4 days!!)…we can’t wait! For today’s How To’s Day, we present to you our Half-Circle Design Studio Collection Skirt. You may recognize the skirt from last week’s dual-tutorials: sewing an invisible hem and installing a zipper; we had shown you a little preview but today we are bringing you the tutorial for it!

 

This half-circle skirt is the epitome of girliness and flirtiness – it’s sweet, fun, and the perfect skirt for that first date or engagement photos, and any time in between!

To make our Half-Circle Skirt we used 2140502 #2, Yellow & Gray Deco Fans, and 2140503 #1, Yellow & Gray Hexagons. Both patterns are from The Design Studio Collection.

Hi everyone!

 

 

It’s officially Friday!! Hope everyone has had a wonderful week. October has sneakingly crept up on us (Seriously can’t believe we’re already into October!)…but we’ve been happily busy with the official launch of our blog, our Fall 2013 Collections, and getting ready for Quilt Market. We’ve got lots happening, but excited for all the incredible things to come!

 

Today we bring to you another exciting post: Fan Fridays! Each Friday we will be featuring a new project using our fabrics made by you! That’s right. If you would like to featured in a future Fan Friday, email us at info@camelotfabrics.com. We adore seeing all your wonderful projects and would love to hear from you! :)

 

 

Our first Fan Friday features a very hero-worthy quilt made by the fabulous Mdm Samm! Mdm Samm, from the blog Sew We Quilt, is the incredibly talented and creative queen of quilting and Blog Hops. She created this Man of Steel Kal-El Quilt using our Man of Steel fabric for her eldest who is a big Superman fan! The quilt is just awesome, but wait till you check out the equally amazing photos:
