Welcome!

Hi everyone!

Happy Thursday! I hope everyone is having a fantastical day!! Not sure if you saw yesterday’s post, but we’re hosting another Winsday! This week, we’re giving away a Sea Life FQB on our Facebook Page – so go enter now!! ;)

Saying some “thank yous” today with our Thankful Thursday! Today we are featuring another awesome quilt shop, Fabric Mill, who love Camelot Fabrics. Fabric Mill is a quilt shop located in Orem, Utah and has been up & running since 1972. They are a combination quilt shop and fabric store, so they are a one-stop shop for all of your quilting and sewing needs! As well, they have quilt kits, tutorials, and cool patterns available. Though they got their start in the 70s, they’re up-to-date with the latest fabric trends, love bright colors, and are big fans of social media.

One collection they particularly adore is our Wildflowers by Alisse Courter Collection, from Fall 2014. Wildflowers is our feminine floral collection of luscious pink, chartreuse, and grey hues. The floral patterns are ethereal and soft, and make for the perfect palette for a girly quilt or dress.

Fabric Mill featured our Wildflowers Collection on their blog, which included very sweet words. Along with some lust-worthy pictures of Wildflowers & coordinating Mixology, they also shared their favorite Camelot Fabrics free projects.

Thank you for the fabric love, Fabric Mill! If you are in the Ohio are, be sure to check them out. You can find more from them on their website, blog, Facebook Page, Twitter, and Pinterest. Have a lovely day!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Thursday! Hope everyone is having a great day. Today is National Peanut Butter and Jelly Day. Brings us back to our childhood, when there was nothing better than a pb&j sandwich with milk. Mmmm.

Time for this week’s Thankful Thursday! Today we are featuring an awesome quilt shop located in Utah, Just Sew Highland. Just Sew Highland has a wonderful selection of diverse fabric collections, from more traditional to more modern. As well, they have “blocks of the month” on their blog, where they feature projects made by their customers. They recently shared a stunning quilt on their Instagram, with our Wildflowers by Alisse Courter Collection. Eva took the challenge, and created Gigi Thimble’s Fresh Cuts Quilt. Fresh Cuts is such a perfect choice because of the lovely tulip designs. The quilt looks fresh, happy, and spring-y, getting us ready for the new season. We adore the mix of prints that Eva chose from Wildflowers, and that she chose to keep the background white so that the flowers could really pop! The quilt kit is also available at Just Sew.

Just in time for the Easter weekend! Thank you for tagging us on Instagram, Just Sew Highland! We are so in love with this version of the Fresh Cuts Quilt, with our Wildflowers Collection. You can find more from Just Sew Highland on their website, Facebook, and Instagram. And with that, have an epic rest of the day!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Thursday! We hope you are all having a fantastic day so far!! There’s one more day until Spring, and we can’t wait!! Want to know something else that’s sweet? Today is National Chocolate Caramel Day. Um, yes it’s a thing. I mean, chocolate and caramel are delicious on their own; together they’re just magic!

Time for this week’s Thankful Thursday! Today we are featuring a project from one of our pattern designs, Chris Hoover of Whirligig Designs. One of the first projects featured in our Free Projects Program, our Box Trot Quilt by Whirligig Designs continues to be a favorite! The linear, box-y design of our Box Trot Quilt makes it perfect for highlighting many different fabric designs into one quilt. This quilt gives the sewer a lot of creative freedom to match different colors and designs together, to create a beautifully uniform look. We’ve used our Box Trot quilt to highlight different fabric collections, but love the idea of using it as a modern graduating or collage quilt too.

We decided to have our Box Trot Quilt sewn up in one of our Fall 2014 collections, Wildflowers by Alisse Courter. The warm peach, chartreuse, and grey tones work wonderfully together in this block quilt. Chris quilted Box Trot for us, and gosh, it looks so pristine and perfect in person – just as it does in our template (but better!). Chris is an extremely talented quilter; the floral quilting works perfectly with Wildflowers. The result is a gorgeous, clean-looking quilt that would add a great pop of color to any feminine space.

Thank you SO much, Chris, for the incredible quilt pattern and for sewing the physical quilt for us. We absolutely LOVE it! You can find the free PDF printout for the Box Trot Quilt on our website here. As well, be sure to check out more from Chis on her website. And with that, have a terrific day!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Wednesday! We hope you all are doing great. If you missed yesterday’s post, we shared our stunning Color Block Pillow Tutorial – complete with fun tassels! You can find the full, free tutorial and patterns here.

It’s Wednesday, which means it’s time to announce our Winsday winner! Last week, we hosted a collaborative giveaway with May Arts Ribbon for our No-Sew Pillow Cover Kit. The prize included the three things you need to create a gorgeous pillow cover – the pattern, 3 yards of our Wildflowers fabric, and some gorgeous May Arts Ribbon. Because Spring is soon approaching us, we thought it would be fun to add some fresh blooms to our week…

This week, we asked you what your favorite flower was. This question definitely brought up our spirits in the office, and made us so happy. We loved seeing the mix of beautiful flowers in the comments, with our personal favorites being daisies, dahlias, and sunflowers! But of course, we could only choose one winner. The winner of this week’s Winsday is…

Congratulations, Leona Mader!! We are so incredibly excited for you! We hope you enjoy the pretty fabric and ribbon, and enjoy creating some lovely No-Sew Pillow Covers with them. Please email us your mailing address to info@camelotfabrics.com by March 11th, 2015. And, a HUGE thank you to May Arts Ribbon for collaborating with us – the best is yet to come with them, and we can’t wait!! Thank you to everyone who entered this week’s Winsday. Don’t worry, lots more to come! Until next Winsday…
