Welcome!

Hi everyone!

Happy Monday!! We hope everyone had a great and restful weekend! Did anyone do anything fun? :) Here’s to another fantastic week!! If you haven’t seen our latest tutorial, you definitely should! We shared our adorable (and relatively simple) Macarons Pillows Tutorial last week. Be sure to check it out HERE!

It’s time for this week’s Moody Monday. Today we are featuring a sophisticated, modern, and classic collection…Kate by Camelot Design Studio! Kate is a collection of grapefruit, indigo, and chartreuse tones that encapsulates a very warm and rustic vibe. The ogee, tiled, lattice, and chevron patterns add a playful touch to this otherwise sleek collection. Kate calls for a dressed-up affair – a rooftop 5 a 7 or garden party…you are ready for anything! Any of the designs in this collection would look stunning as a simple shift dress, a necktie, or a couple of pillows to add some flair to your living space. The possibilities are endless! :)

The color palette of Kate makes for an especially polished and refined feel, and this outfit that Jessica Biel sports definitely resembles just that. Jessica Biel is a very reserved actress, with very scant highlights in the press (which is a good thing!). Her demure sophistication is definitely displayed in her modern eggplant and coral ensemble. The dual tones of coral/tangerine tones add for a very pretty monochromatic look…which she completed with a complementary eggplant-hued jacket, bag, and pair of heels. This outfit gives a very similar feel to our Kate collection, in both tones and feel. Such a lovely look…great job, Jessica! You can check out the full Kate Collection HERE! :)

We hope you have enjoyed this week’s Moody Monday and have been inspired…to wear a monochromatic look, or just a pop of eggplant of coral in your look. Have a great day, everyone! :)

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone!

Happy Friday everyone!! Happy Fourth of July to all our American friends!! We wish you a fantastic and safe celebratory weekend!! If you haven’t seen it yet, we posted some awesome DIY Fourth of July gift and party ideas on our blog last week…here’s the link to check it out!

It’s also time to end another super week with our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring a wonderful Etsy Shop and blog: Charley, Dee, & Me! Charley, Dee, & Me is a blog run by Rebecca, and dedicated to all things fabric-related. Rebecca loves to sew and quilt, especially with the women in her family, and enjoys blogging about all of her project-making adventures. As well, Rebecca shares tutorials with her readers – table runners, a fun toaster cover, and more! :)

In correlation with her blog, Rebecca also has an Etsy Shop where she sells her beautifully handmade burp cloths, blankets, and quilts for little ones. A lot of the chain store products for babies are generic and, for lack of a better word, boring…but Rebecca brings a contemporary flair to baby stuff! Rebecca has impeccable taste in fabric designs, so all of her products are eye-catching and modern, perfect for all the little ones who want to be comforted but also stay in style! We absolutely adore these burp cloths that Rebecca made with our Frolicking Forest by Heather Rosas Collection. This set is absolutely adorable, and the packaging is perfection as well. It would make for such a lovely baby shower gift!

We are so happy that you love our Frolicking Forest fabric, Rebecca! We really love the esthetic of your blog and shop, and are honored to be a part of it. Have a wonderful weekend, everyone! :)

Hi everyone!

Happy Thursday! We hope everyone is having a fantastic day so far. It’s the Fourth of July for our American friends tomorrow, and we’ve posted our last minute DIY gift ideas last week. Be sure to check it out HERE if you haven’t for lots of festive DIY gift and party ideas! :)

It’s time for this week’s Thankful Thursday, and today we are featuring one of our quilt pattern designers…Jessie Kurtz of Harding Hill Designs! Jessie Kurtz is the incredibly talented pattern designer and founder behind Harding Hill Designs, a pattern company dedicated to creating unique and vibrant project patterns that are easy to follow & fun to make! Her stunning patterns can be found on Etsy and Craftsy, as well as some quilt shops!

We had the absolute pleasure of partnering with Jessie of Harding Hill Designs to create a quilt design for our Free Projects Program! Jessie created this beautiful and modern digital quilt pattern with our Petite Plume by Andrea Turk from Cinnamon Joe Studio Collection called Crossroads. We adore the simplicity of the over look, with the cross pattern, and the intricate triangle detailing within the cross. It makes for a very interesting and eye-catching quilt, and would be beautiful as wall décor! You can download the free PDF for the Crossroads Quilt on our website HERE! :)

You can find Harding Hill Designs’ patterns on Etsy and Craftsy, and you can learn more at Jessie’s blog, Facebook Page, and Twitter. We want to say a big thank you to Jessie for creating such a gorgeous quilt design for us, and her wonderful partnership. We had an amazing time working with you!! We hope you really love Crossroads as much as we do – be sure to get the free pattern for it! Have a lovely day, everyone!! :)

Hi everyone!

Happy Monday! We hope you all had a restful, fun weekend! :) Here’s to another lovely week! Have you entered our Pinterest Giveaway yet? We are giving away a Petite Plume by Andrea Turk FQ Bundle this week, so be sure to enter HERE! :)

It’s time for our Moody Monday! Today we are inspiring you with our Love Letters by Jane Farnham for Camelot Fabrics Collection! There are oh-so many things that we love here at the Camelot Design Studio: pretty tulle skirts, adorable furry animals, glitter, all things ruffled…and of course, fabric! ;) You can also see more of what we love on our Pinterest Board, What We Love! Love Letters is all about just that, love, and showing the ones you love how much you appreciate them. This collection is a stunning palette of pink, navy, turquoise, and soft green hues decorated in kitsy hearts, twigs, and floral patterns. One awesome SKU in this collection is the Gift Tags, which can be used for gifting to all the loved ones to your heart’s content. The Alphabet design is a fun way to personalize a quilt or other project, either with a meaningful saying or name! Love Letters is the perfect collection for sharing those three little words with the ones you care about, in a very special way.

We are so inspired by our Love Letters by Jane Farnham Collection! One Spring RTW 2014 collection that especially encapsulates the essence of Love Letters is that of Burberry Prorsum’s! This collection is absolutely stunning with its mint, pink, and lavender color palette in soft chiffon and lace. What especially sparks our love affair with this collection is the bejewelled details that are so bold, but beautiful and eye-catching! We love a good statement piece or bit of sparkle!! We especially love this ensemble, as well as this one. So delicate and so pretty! Be sure to check out the full Burberry Prorsum Collection HERE!

Thanks for reading this week’s Moody Monday! Have a beautiful rest of the day, everyone! :)

Happy Sewing!
