Welcome!

Hi everyone,

Happy Friday!! We hope you all are having a lovely day…TGIF!! To kickstart the weekend, have you entered our Paddington Bear Giveaway yet? Enter to win 3 1/2 yards of our Paddington Bear Collection. It’s the North American premiere of the movie in theaters today, so we’re super excited about that too!

Ending the week with our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring an amazing quilt done by the super talented Katy J that we spotted on Instagram. She has always been a sewing enthusiast, doing something crafty everyday whether it be something for herself, for a gift, or for custom items. She had opened an Etsy Shop for her creations, but has taken a break from it. She sews all sorts of things from quilts, baby quilts, table runners, camera strap covers, to passport and bi-fold wallets. And, she shares her new items on her Facebook Page.

Katy’s husband is an Army pilot and, being inspired by him, has sewn almost 40 Fly Army Baby Quilts in the past four years. She had recently found our Take Flight Collection at a local fabric shop, and was so thrilled by our helicopter prints. When we saw the Take Flight quilt on Instagram, we got SO excited!!

It is an absolutely stunning quilt – the reds, blues, and yellows vibrant and cheery, and would make any future pilot-in-training very happy!! You did such a wonderful job, Katy! :)

Thank you so much, Katy, for the fabric love! We are so happy to have found you and your Take Flight on Instagram, and thank you for letting us share. You can find more from Katy on her Instagram, Facebook, and Etsy. And if you have created a project using one of our collections, we’d love to see. You can send all of your pictures to info@camelotfabrics.com and you could be one of our future Fan Fridays! Have a lovely weekend, everyone! :)

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone!

Happy Tuesday! I hope you all are having a wonderful day!! We are happily enjoying the sunshine and warm weather today. The pretty weather is making us daydream of taking a relaxing, tropical vacation to Turks & Caicos or Hawaii! And speaking of dreaming, we have got a DIY project to share with you today that reminds us of just that. Our heads are in the clouds today…

This week’s How To’s Day is our DIY Star and Cloud Shape Pillows tutorial! All of you fellow dreamers and astronomy lovers, this project is perfect for you. Another bonus, it is super easy to make AND is an exceptionally adorable project! Our shape pillows would be a great addition to a sky-themed bedroom (think clouds and stars scattered across a blue comforter!) or as a gift for a future astronaut! We always love to encourage creativity here, so these would be perfect playtime toys for kids – let their imaginations run free – and then a comfy accompaniment for naptime (because all that playing can wear you out, after all!). We adore our shape pillows with our Take Flight by Vita Mechachonis, a brilliant and bold airplane- and sky-themed collection!!

Hi everyone!

Happy Tuesday!! We hope everyone is having a lovely day. We are trying to embrace the milder weather, as we are supposed to be getting more rain in the next coming days. Sigh. We just want sunshine!! :)

In the meantime, we’ve got something else to brighten your day – it’s time for this week’s How To’s Day post! We’ve got a fantastic new tutorial to share with you all, our Easy Pillow Slip! We are all about simplicity and convenience here, so if we can make something…why not right? :) Bedcovers and sheets should be interchanged every couple of weeks, and there is honestly nothing better than the feeling of going to bed in fresh linens. However, buying extra bed wear can get pretty expensive, especially for something that can easily be made yourself, so we are going to share our tips & tricks with you today on just that!

Another awesome thing about bedcovers is that they are just that – covers for your bed! It’s the simplest way to change up a bedroom look; keep the rest of your bedroom décor neutral and add pops of color with your linens (ie. pillows, bed sheets, and curtains!). In a manner of minutes, you’ll have yourself a completely different looking room. It’s a great way to decorate on a budget (such as for a dorm room!), or for those who just like changing things up! Indulge in your inner interior decorator by mastering your very own pillow slips with our tutorial today.
