Welcome!

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! :)

Hi everyone!

Happy Monday! How was everyone’s weekend? It’s official Summer now…Happy Summer!! Here’s to yummy BBQs, fun get-togethers, and warmer weather!! :)

It’s time to start off the first week of Summer with out Moody Monday! Today we are inspiring you with our Black & Tan Collection by the Camelot Design Studio. Black & Tan is an absolutely beautiful, sleek collection of herringbone, houndstooth, chevron and animal print (leopard and zebra…how fun, right?) designs in a mix of black, white, and tan. This collection is strong, modern, and has an affluent appeal…it reminds us of all the business men and women, busily rushing to and from work on Wall Street, dressed in fitted dark suits, mahogany or black shoes, and matching briefcases. And then after work, taking a quick stop…into Barney’s of course!

Black & Tan is a great collection to mix into any current décor with its neutral colors and prints, and would make for the perfect throw quilt. How about a matching foldover clutch and full skirt? Yes, please! :) Be sure to check out the full Black & Tan collection here!

Didit Hediprasetyo’s Spring 2014 Couture Collection is the epitome of 50s-inspired and classic, in both silhouettes and patterns.  The collection features neutral black and brown tones but in some really fun prints – tweed, houndstooth, and leather! We absolutely adore the mix between black and tan, two strong colors that go really well together is paired properly. We love Didit Hediprasetyo’s twist on a retro jumpsuit in houndstooth, especially with the little glints of shimmer and leather detailing. This collection definitely reminds us of our Black & Tank collection, and we especially love this look…and this one! You can check out the full collection HERE! :)

We hope we have inspired you today with this week’s Moody Monday!! Have a great day, everyone! :)

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone!

Happy Monday! We hope you all had a fantastic weekend, and a wonderful Father’s Day! We are hosting our Facebook Neon & On FQ Bundle Giveaway for a couple more days…so be sure to enter HERE if you haven’t yet! :)

It’s time to start off this week with our Moody Monday! Today we are inspiring you with our Singin’ the Blues by Jackie McFee Collection!! Singin’ the Blues, as the name suggests, is a spectacular collection encompassing different shades of blue. The vibrant mix of cobalt blue, topaz, and mint colors reminds us of the ocean…we could definitely imagine a beach vacation somewhere near the Mediterranean Sea with these blue hues, and the stunning chevron, dot, medallion, and lattice designs. But if you can’t whisk yourself away to a beach vacation right now, you can create that same feel with a Mediterranean-inspired room. Imagine ocean-inspired curtains, elegant chevron pillows, and a matching modern, blue-hued quilt! Who really needs a getaway now…right? :) See the full collection here!

We love getting inspired by the runway trends for the upcoming season! One show that particularly is reminiscent of our Singin’ the Blues Collection is that of Chloe‘s Spring RTW line. The whole Chloe collection reminds us of a tropical, Mediterranean vacation…and the essentials you’d want to pack! Think loose, but still sleek, silhouettes in earthy tones, white, and blues in beautiful draping and flowy materials. So so pretty!

We especially adore this one here, as well as this one, which reminds us of Singin’ the Blues in both color palette and design. You can check out the full Chloe RTW Spring 2014 collection here!

We hope you have enjoyed this week’s Moody Monday! Let us know what some of your favorite Spring/Summer 2014 trends are. Have a wonderful day!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone!

Happy Monday!! We hope you all had a fantastic weekend. Happy Memorial Day to all our American friends! Have you seen our latest How To’s Day? We posted a tutorial for a stunning Lattice Table Runner that would be the perfect centerpiece for all the upcoming Summer parties. Find the free tutorial here!

It’s time to start another great week with our Moody Monday! Today we are inspiring you with one of our Spring 2014 Collections…Folklore by Heather Rosas for Camelot Fabrics. Folklore is an exquisite collection of ruby, turquoise, and cream hues to create a very happy and modern look. The designs in this collection include sweet birds, fluttery leaves, and a multitude of spring florals – daisies, roses, and tulips!

There is a Scandinavian feel of the designs in Folkore, but the brighter colors make it very fresh and on-trend. We can imagine a perfect Farmer’s Tote, a precious apron for the baking enthusiast, or a playful dress with the turquoise & red hues of Folklore!

One collection that has a similar essence to Folkore is Antonio Berardi’s Spring 2014 collection. The soft hues of creams, nudes, and pinks make this collection very pretty and fluttery, especially with the sheer and delicate fabrics. We especially adore the floral detailing, with the subdued metallic accents. This collection is very feminine and dainty, and we love the juxtaposition of the bohemian-inspired hairstyle and bold red lips. This collection reminds us of our Folklore by Heather Rosas Collection with its beautiful floral details, muted creams and pinks, and boho-vibe. You can check out the full collection HERE! We hope you have enjoyed this week’s Moody Monday!

Happy Sewing!
