Welcome!

Starting off our Fall 2014 Collections with our newest artist, Alisse Courter! So happy to have Alisse join the Camelot Fabrics team of creative minds and awesome people. You can check out some fun facts from Alisse here, from her inspiration to become a fabric designer to her favorite reads. We are so proud to introduce two new collections from Alisse for Fall 2014 that we are sure you will absolutely adore. The first collection is Botanical – a rich, war, collection of flourishing blooms, leaves, and ornate motifs in an emerald and golden color palette. Prints in cozy colors, this collection would make for a beautiful full skirt for the fall time, or as a pretty accessory, such as our reversible headband. The rich prints remind us all things wood-sy, mysterious, and autumn.

We absolutely adore our Botanical by Alisse Courter Collection with our Elevation by Kristy Daum Pillow. The colors work perfectly to make a perfect accent pillow for cabin-feel room. We also love Botanical with this quilt, this quilt, and this quilt.

We’d love to know what you think about our Botanical Collection! As well, we’d love to know what you would create with this warm and cozy collection. You can check out the full collection here. Stay tuned for more for Fall 2014 from Camelot Fabrics!

Hi everyone,

Happy Thursday! We hope everyone is having a terrific day so far. We are inching closer to the weekend, which means it’s just about Quilt Market time!! If you are going to be there, be sure to stop by booth #1824 to say hello! Come check out our new collections, our wonderful projects & set-up, and our designers. It’s going to be so much fun! Hope to see you there!!

Today we are bringing to you our Thankful Thursday! We are featuring an amazing quilting magazine, the only Canadian quilt-based read… Quilter’s Connection Magazine! Quilter’s Connection is all about sharing the latest and greatest there is in the quilting world, from new fabric collections to featured project tutorials to perfecting techniques. They will share upcoming, Canadian quilt shows and festivals, and share their current favorite fabrics, notions, and supplies. They have a lovely mix of quilt projects in both modern and more classic fabrics. As well, because they are Canadian-based and proud, they like to highlight Canadian companies and designers…a wonderful treat for fellow Canadian, sewing enthusiasts! And as their motto goes, “we are a truly Canadian magazine – for quilters, by quilters.”

Quilter’s Connection featured our Fresh Solids in their latest issue for Fall 2014 in their “Favourite Finds” Section. Our stack looks oh-so pretty in print, almost as lovely as they do in real life. We are so thrilled that Quilter’s Connection adores our Fresh Solids Collection! And as a bonus, we’re also Canadian…so it is even more special to be featured in a home-based publication for quilting!

Thank you Quilter’s Connection for the fabric love! You can get your copy of Quilter’s Connection on their website. You can also find them on their blog, Facebook, and Twitter. Have a great rest of the day, everyone! :)

Happy Sewing!

We will be at Fall Quilt Market in Houston this weekend! If you’ll be there, be sure to stop by our booth #1824 to say hi! Hope to see you there!! :)

Time for our What We Love #21 ♥ We absolutely love the fall time, but sometimes it can get a little depressing in weather. Constant gloomy and rainy days can bring a damper to our mood, so we like to turn to Pinterest for inspiring pictures (and the occasional scenic beach picture haha) to lift us up. We have been inspired by lots of pretty, creative, and yummy things this week and today we share our favorites with you… ♥

Vanessa: Edible Typography Macarons

We hope you have enjoyed our “most loved” pins this week. We would love to know what you have been loving most this week. Sometimes when we’re feeling down, there’s nothing like getting creative and then feeling inspired!

Hi everyone,

Happy Wednesday! We hope you are all doing well today. If you missed our last post, we shared our beautiful foldover wedding clutch with our Nightfall Collection. You can find the full, free tutorial for our clutch here. It’s a stunner!

It’s also time to announce this week’s Winsday winner! Last week we hosted our Imaginarium FQ Bundle Giveaway on our Facebook Page, and the responses were so overwhelmingly sweet and wonderful. We are so happy that everyone loves the colors and prints of our Imaginarium collection. We asked you what you would create with this adorable collection, and we had such a blast reading all of your ideas. From baby quilts to advent calendars, we loved them all. Our followers truly are so creative! But of course, we can only choose one winner…and the lucky winner of our Imaginarium FQB is…

Congratulations, Angela Birdwell!! You will be receiving our Imaginarium FQB and we really hope you have fun creating with it. We’d love to know what you make! Please send your mailing address to info@camelotfabrics.com by October 29th, 2014. A BIG thank you to everyone who participated in our giveaway. Until next Winsday…

Happy Sewing!
