Hi everyone!

Happy Friday! It’s time to round out the week with our Fan Friday post! Today we are sharing a very cute and sweet pattern shop, Create Kids Couture. Shannon and Tiffany are the two creative ladies behind Create Kids Couture, a fun pattern boutique that started in July 2011 with only 5 patterns. From there, the boutique quickly grew in popularity and have now expanded to over 300 patterns for babies, women, tweens, boys, dolls, and more! With Create Kids Couture, they strive to create patterns that are both easy to follow and pretty – ruffles and anything girly are a must!

Inspiration for their designs is often sparked from their daughters’ tastes and surroundings, but for their Ginger’s One Shoulder Dress, they were inspired by our In The Navy by Jackie McFee collection! So sweet so hear, and it seriously made our WEEK! The goal was to create a dress with the fabric collection that was summery and showcased a multitude of designs…and we definitely think they succeeded! The tiered design of this maxi dress is super lovely and we adore the bottom ruffled layer (we agree that one can never wear too many ruffles or color!). The pattern also comes with a top version, which is fantastic. This is the perfect cruise or garden party dress for a sweet, little girl!

She is absolutely adorable!! :) And the matching rose headband and necklace are perfect accessories!

Thank you so much, Tiffany and Shannon, for sharing your beautiful outfit designs with us! To find the above styles, and for so many other adorable pieces, check out the Create Kids Couture website! As well, check out the Create Kids Couture’s Facebook Page, Twitter, Instagram, smartphone app, and blog for more goodies. They post a new, free tutorial every week on their blog and a new pattern almost everyday of the week, so there is always something fresh and exciting. Thanks for reading this week’s Fan Friday – Have a superb weekend everyone! :)

Hi everyone!

Happy Thursday! I hope you are all having a wonderful day. We are having another lovely and sunshine-filled afternoon! We are starting to count down the days until Spring Quilt Market, which is about three weeks away!! We are super excited! We are going to be at booth 1425, so be sure to stop by and say hello if you see us! :)

To get us all the Spring mood, we have got our Thankful Thursday to share with you all. Today we are featuring Audrey & Diane of The Cloth Parcel, one of our quilt designers, who created the amazing Tumbling Jewels Quilt for us. Audrey and Diane are the creative duo behind The Cloth Parcel, and they also happen to be a mother-daughter team! The Cloth Parcel is an online shop dedicated to quilting, sewing, and crafting supplies, including quilt patterns & kits. As well, they have an accompanying blog with craft ideas, sewing techniques, project ideas, and so much more!

Tumbling Jewels is an absolutely stunning quilt design, and as the name suggests, makes the quilt look like it is “dripping in jewels”. A combination of triangles and squares pieced together, Tumbling Jewels fits perfectly with our Penelope Collection. Although a mixture of different prints and designs, the coordinating colors allow for a seamless look.

This is going to be one of our featured quilts at Spring Quilt Market, and we are so thrilled because it is going to be a “wow” piece! The girls at The Cloth Parcel sewed this quilt for us, and featured it on their blog. We are going to be getting it in the mail any day now, but seeing the pictures makes us all that more excited!! It definitely screams “fresh and springtime happiness” to us…we just cannot to see it in person!

Thank you SO much to the lovely ladies at The Cloth Parcel for creating a spectacular quilt design for us, and for taking the time to sew the physical quilt. It is just breathtaking! We are so thankful for your partnership and are very excited for all the future endeavors. All of our quilt designs are free projects on our website, so you can create your very own Tumbling Jewels Quilt by finding the full instructions here. Be sure to also check out Audrey & Diane at their blog, Instagram, Facebook, and Pinterest. Have a great day!

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! :)
