Hi everyone!

Happy Thursday! Happy First of May!! I just wanted to take this moment to thank YOU for taking the time to visit our blog. It really means so much to us. We are also on Bloglovin’ and would love it if you could follow us – that way you can be up-to-date on all the new things happening here! :) We are also giving away some of our Star Wars glow-in-the-dark fabric this week…head on over to our Facebook Page to enter!

It’s time for some more “thank yous” with this week’s Thankful Thursday. Today we are going to share our wonderful feature in the Craft Ideas April 2014 Digital Magazine. Craft Ideas is an incredible source for all things craft- and DIY-related – from quilting to clay to beading, and everything in-between, they are a fantastic crafting hub for every sort of project you will want to try.

Craft Ideas publishes print magazines throughout the year, dedicated to the yearly trends and holidays, as well as digital editions! Moreover, they have a correlating Craft Ideas website and blog to share even more crafting tips and project tutorials with their readers! Every week, they post informative videos on their YouTube channel featuring their editor, Annie Niemics! They always provide great insight and reviews on new products or projects.

They also send out weekly e-newsletters that their followers can sign up to, to get the latest in the crafting community. They feature bloggers, giveaways, and fun things – after the 2014 CHA Show, they loved our products and decided to give us a super sweet shout-out:

Craft Ideas also featured two of our free tutorials in their May 2014 digital edition. They featured the tutorials for our Plush Stegosaurus and “Love You Forever” Tree Trunk Bolster tutorials! It was SO cool to see our tutorials featured, and are so glad they are enjoyed. We hope the readers like our project ideas!

We wanted to say thank you to Craft Ideas for being an awesome crafting source, and for featuring us and our projects in their latest digital edition. We are huge fans of their magazine and content, and cannot wait to see what’s next! Be sure to check out Craft Ideas on Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest for lots more!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone!

Happy Thursday! How is everyone’s day going? The Easter Bunny made a quick visit to the Camelot Design Studio today, so we are all happily working and enjoying our treats! We hope everyone has a wonderful Easter holiday this weekend, wishing you all  much happiness, love, and yummy food :)

It’s time for this week’s Thankful Thursday! Today we are going to be sharing a very exciting event that took place last week in Kitchener: Scrapfest 2014! This very fun festival brought together lots of crafty and inspiring people. There were informative workshops, engaging make-and-takes, and lots of creativity floating around everywhere!

Westcott was part of a really great Make & Take, lead by Elizabeth Glenday, and we were very honored to be a part of it too! Our Conversation Heart Banner free tutorial was used as the project, and they used our Ad-Fab™ and chalkboard fabric for the banners. We absolutely adore how they made the conversation hearts, but also Easter-inspired with the cute egg banners! It just shows how easily adaptable this project is for all celebrations and holidays.

We adore the “I made it @ Scrapfest 2014” chalkboard fabric speech bubble! Such a cute idea!! The Make & Take looked like it was SO much fun, and we heard that it was a great success. Everyone who came by enjoyed the project and putting their own spin on it! So great to see crafters of all ages having participated too!

We want to say a HUGE thank you to Brenda Greenwood-Vernem from Westcott, Paula Jones from the CHA, and Elizabeth Glenday for allowing Camelot Fabrics to be a part of a great team. We were so happy that our Conversation Hearts Banner & products were much loved at the Scrapfest event! We were super excited to hear everyone was received well and it was a success. If you want to be a part of the next Scrapfest, or for more information, check out the Scrapfest site here. Thank you once again! Have a great day everyone! :)

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Wednesday! How has everyone’s week been going? March is National Craft Month, and as the end of the month is almost near, we are reflecting on all the fun projects we have created this month. In March we have shared four new free project tutorials (How to Sew a Button, Our Plus Sized Quilt, Tiny Adventures Dress, and Our Cascading Chevrons Pillow), as well as our exclusive, outsourced free quilt patterns. We also have a roundup of all our recent quilt patterns in a blog post here.

It’s time to announce our Beyond the Backyard FQ Bundle Giveaway winner! We wanted to say a HUGE thank you to everyone who participated in our giveaway. We received so many wonderful replies and entries, getting us even more excited for Spring, so thank you so much!! And a big “hello!” to all our new friends too!
