Welcome to the 32nd edition of the Sewfinity newsletter, written by me, Angela Bowman.

Hi from Angela

Meridian Idaho, Sunday December 15, 2024

Good afternoon!

Our big news for you this month: we have an entire new quilting cotton solid line: Confetti Cotton Solids by Riley Blake Designs. They are beautiful, and the price-point is reasonable, which is so nice. We just barely got them on our shelves and we already have a slew of customer orders. People must love this fabric line! We are very excited to offer it for you, and just like all the other solids, we are committed to carrying every single color. This addition means that we now have 5 complete collections of quilting cotton solids. Five! How many colors does that represent? I just now checked, and it's 948!

Other new stuff, below: 3-yard packs of 108" fabric, Kona Cotton's 2025 color of the year, and some new Flannel Solid colors. As I was adding all this fabric to our website, I decided to spiff up our front page a bit. Go take a look!

Enjoy your holidays!

NEW: Confetti Cotton Solids

This is Riley Blake Designs current line of 186 colors of Confetti Cotton Solids, with 114 more to arrive in February. That will bring the total collection up to 300 colors, and we will have them all.

The colors are beautiful and the hand is wonderful.

VERY EXCITED ABOUT THIS!

5 new colors of Flannel Solids

Robert Kaufman Fabrics just released 5 new colors of Flannel Solids: Coral, Hyacinth, Cornflower, Periwinkle, and Fresh Dew. That brings the entire collection to over 50 colors, and we have them all. This flannel is niiiiiiice, not like the flimsy stuff in the big box stores.

An interesting tidbit: one of Ken Kaufman's favorite sounds is the thud of one folded flannel dropped on another :)

Kona Cotton - Nocturne

We've got it: NOCTURNE! This is Kona Cotton's Color of the Year for 2025 and it is stunning! It's a rich shade of violet on the CMY color wheel.

We assign a color value to every single solid we offer (0 lightest to 10 darkest), and Nocturne is a rare V7 💜⁠

3-yard packs of 108" Wide

We now offer 108" wide fabric in 3-yard packs! This grab-and-go option is great for quilt backs up to a queen size quilt. And any extra makes an easy hanging sleeve plus some nice-sized remnants!

We used to offer this extra wide fabric by the yard, but the bolts take up an incredible amount of space on our shelves, so the new 3-yd packs allow us to optimize our warehouse storage.

Every month (or so) Angela writes a letter about her thoughts, behind-the-scenes stuff at Sewfinity, and things worth knowing in the world of sewing. It's like getting a nice letter in the mail. Not too spammy. And not too often.

Welcome to the 38th edition of the Sewfinity newsletter, written by me, Angela Bowman. Hi from Angela Meridian Idaho, Sunday October 12, 2025 Good morning! Well dangit, Robert Kaufman is discontinuing Big Sur Canvas. I'm sad to pass on this news since we have quite a few canvas customers, mostly handmade sellers. They use canvas to make pillow covers, bespoke bags, and yes, stretch on a frame for fine art painting. One local guy uses it to make cornhole bags, choosing from our entire...

Welcome to the 37th edition of the Sewfinity newsletter, written by me, Angela Bowman. Hi from Angela Meridian Idaho, Sunday August 31, 2025 Good afternoon! August has been incredibly busy here at Sewfinity - we had our best sales month ever. After I ran the numbers yesterday, I got emotional. It's just so rewarding to see hard work result in success. Thank you so much for letting us serve you! It's also been busy and emotional at home - we got our daughter settled into her first year of...

Pearl Cotton thread - Sewfinity.com

Welcome to the 36th edition of the Sewfinity newsletter, written by me, Angela Bowman. Hi from Angela Meridian Idaho, Sunday July 6, 2025 Good afternoon! Do you know how to hand quilt? I've been wanting to learn for quite some time - I just love the idea of a completely bespoke quilt made by hand. I'm learning with big stitch hand quilting - nice and easy big stitches with chunky thread. I'm starting with simple straight lines, and yeesh, that first line was really rough. Lots of uneven...
