Hi everyone!

Happy Monday! Wishing everyone a blissful start to the week. We cannot believe that Christmas is officially a month away (seriously, where did the time go?!). We are so excited and happily getting into the holiday spirit, but there is still much to do! We’ve got lots of beautiful DIY projects in the works though…the perfect gifts for anyone!

And to add a little inspiration to your day, we’ve got today’s Moody Monday for you. Today we are sharing with you our The Design Studio Collection moodboard! The Design Studio Collection is a brilliant and bold collection, not just in color but also in print and patterns. The collection is a wonderful mix of chevrons, herringbone, hexagon, and fan prints in unexpected black, grey, yellow, and turquoise color combinations. The designs are vibrant and exuberant, adding some cheer to any home decor or wardrobe project! Have we got your gears turning for some amazing DIY gifts planned? ;)

Our eclectic collection is reminiscent of Oscar de la Renta’s Spring 2013 RTW collection. Oscar used a mix of black, turquoise, yellow, and pink hues in his garments but varied with bold patterns. The silhouettes were classic and simple, but the fantastical prints made them even more special. The thick black stripes, the tulle turquoise dresses, and the ensembles of grey & yellow mixes make for the perfect supplement to our The Design Studio Collection! Be sure to check out the full Oscar de la Renta collection here.

We hope our collection and moodboard has given you a bit of inspiration this Monday! Here’s to a great start to another wonderful week. Until next time!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone!

Happy Thursday! We hope everyone is having a wonderful day.

A little quote inspiration for today: “Life is a great big canvas and you should throw all the paint on it you can” – Danny Kaye

It’s time for this week’s Thankful Thursday post, and today we are taking the time to thank Michelle from Hypernoodle! A little bit on Michelle and Hypernoodle: Michelle started a Etsy shop dedicated to her love for fabric, and being able to share unique and on-trend fabrics with other fabric-enthusiasts. The once small Etsy shop quickly expanded, and Michelle has since been able to add many more incredible fabric lines to her shop, even launching her own website. With it, she also has a blog and Etsy shop dedicated to her handmade treasures. Camelot Fabrics is honored to be one of the fabric lines featured in her shop!

We’ve had a great bond with Hypernoodle, and for this past Fall Quilt Market Michelle sewed a stunning project for us. She used a darling Pleated Ruffle Coat pattern from Amelie & Henri Patterns using our Design Studio Collection fabric, and it was definitely a “wow” piece! Any little girl would feel like a true princess in this coat. Thank you so much, Michelle, for the beautiful piece. As well, Hypernoodle & ‘Maureen Cracknell Handmade had hosted a giveaway with bundles of our fabric at the beginning of November (over now!) but we wanted to also thank her for that. We always love reading what people think about our designs!

Thank you so much Michelle for being the most amazing Camelot Fabrics cheerleader, we really appreciate your kindness and enthusiasm so very much. We hope you have enjoyed this week’s Thankful Thursday. Be sure to check out Hypernoodle and Michelle’s Etsy shop! You can also find her on Facebook.

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone!

Happy Thursday!! With the weekend just around the corner, we hope you all have had a terrific and productive week thus far! Today we bring to you our weekly Thankful Thursday post and this week we are taking the time to thank the Glimpse Reviews blog.

The Glimpse Reviews blog is run by two lovely ladies, Andrea and Julie, from the Canadian Prairies. Their blog focuses on local, Canadian-based stores and businesses – something we definitely support and appreciate being Canadian-born! Both being mommies, their blog posts focus on kid-friendly, DIY, and natural products (and everything in-between!) that are all Canadian-based. As well, they host a multitude of different giveaways to their readers (and who doesn’t love giveaways, right?). We definitely think you will love all their informative postings and recommend you take a little glimpse at their blog (see what we did there? ;))!

The Glimpse ladies chose their favorite fabric designs from us, and created some very special projects that they shared on their blog! Julie chose our Stitched Garden Collection and she sewed a darling, ruffled skirt for her little daughter. The Stitched Garden designs are girly and innocent, and made the perfect little twirl skirt.

Oh how adorable!!

Andrea decided to go in the opposite direction of the gender spectrum, and chose our beloved Star Trek Collection to make something for her little boy. She sewed a backseat car organizer for him, so now he can easily store away all his toys from his three sisters. Such a functional and useful project, and it looks fantastic with our Star Trek fabric! Be sure to read the Glimpse review blog post on Camelot Fabrics here.

Thank you so much to the Glimpse girls for the wonderful blog post and projects with our fabric! We are so thrilled that you love our designs. We hope you have enjoyed this week’s Thankful Thursday post!

PS: Have you seen yesterday’s Winsday? You could win our Birds of a Feather FQ Bundle by telling us what you would create with the fabric. Comment and enter on the blog post here. Good luck! We will be announcing the winner on next week’s Winsday post.

Happy Sewing!
