Fan Friday: That Moment When…George Takei Shares About Our Star Trek Fabric!!

June 13th, 2014 by Camelot Fabrics

Hi everyone,

 

 

 

 

 

Happy Friday!! It’s rainy and gloomy here on this Friday the 13th. Let’s hope that’s the only dreary thing about today. It’s also Sewing Machine Day – how neat! Anyone planning to sew this weekend? :) We’re also hosting a Neon & On FQ Bundle Giveaway on our Facebook Page. Be sure to enter HERE!

 

A couple of weeks ago, we were perusing George Takei’s Facebook Page (as we do, he always posts the best memes!)…and we stumbled upon a post with our Star Trek fabric. George Takei posted OUR Star Trek fabric. Needless to say, it took us a while to let that sink in. And once it did, and we did our happy dance, we excitedly read through some of the comments on the post. We were amazed!! There were SO many wonderful Star Trek and sewing enthusiasts who posted their projects using that exact Star Trek fabric design! Seeing all the incredible projects with our designs made our whole year!! Star Trek has one of the most loyal fan bases, and it has been so fun getting to be a small part of it.

 

We thought it would be fun to share with you all today some of the amazing, Star Trek projects that were linked with the post. We contacted them, and they all graciously sent photos and more information on their projects.

 

Heather created this awesome Laptop bag with our Star Trek fabrics, which includes a supportive crossbody strap and room enough for a large laptop as it measures 18″ x 15″ x 4″. Love it!

We adore this gorgeous Star Trek crossbody bag by Pannay! This crossbody is perfect for students with lots of books or a laptop to carry, but was inspired to entice her husband to carry the diaper bag (hehe clever!). Pannay also sells fun bag patterns at her Etsy Shop, and has a blog. Be sure to check her out for more!

We love a great quilt, and this one surely catches our eye! Cathy used our Star Trek fabric to create this awesome quilt for her friends. It’s colorful, fun, and bright and we adore how she highlights the characters well. Great job, Cathy!

A BIG thank you to Heather, Pannay, and Cathy for sharing their Star Trek projects with us!! :) We also want to thank George Takei for sharing about our Star Trek fabric!! Still such a surreal moment for us here. We hope everyone has a great Father’s Day weekend!!

 

 

 

 

Happy Sewing!
