Hi from Angela
Meridian Idaho, Sunday March 22, 2026
Good morning!
I have a few exciting things to share with you: we have yet another new team member, a new blog article, new bundles & kits, and a MAJOR feature update to Sewfinity Colorway.
Yes, we have another new team member! Last month I told you about our new blog writer Darla. Now we have another new face: my son Chandler. He will take care of warehouse operations, allowing me to work on content and business ops. I am so happy to bring him onboard! So when you are lucky enough to see initials CB on the packing slip in your order, just know that your fabric was meticulously cut and folded and packed by one of the most dependable, hard-working, and trustworthy young men in the business. He doesn't sew, but I'm teaching him all our fabric tricks :)
In fabric news, we have 8 new Pantone fabric bundles, some gorgeous new quilt kits, and 5 more colors of quilt backings.
Next up, go read our new blog article about quilt piecing. Darla's take on 3 simple things you can do for better piecing is just fantastic.
And at last, Sewfinity Colorway! This new online tool of ours is just a smashing success - you all are loving it and it's keeping us extremely busy and thankful here at Sewfinity HQ. We made a huge update this month: you can now SAVE your palettes!
Read on for all the info. And enjoy the beginning of Spring!

Pantone Color of the Year 2026: Cloud Dancer
Pantone's 2026 Color of the Year is Cloud Dancer, and we've curated 8 fabric bundles for you. Here's an all-light bundle, but there are also 7 inspiring palettes where Cloud Dancer allows other colors to shine.
At first it felt silly putting together a bundle of all whites, but then I thought it might actually be a useful bundle for people - you can get a good sampling of quilting cotton options from 5 different manufacturers.
I got the Pantone swatch and saw that Cloud Dancer is a slightly warm white with a touch of glow. I matched up the closest 12 solids in our warehouse and here it is, our fabric bundle for Cloud Dancer, the 2026 Pantone Color of the Year 🌧

Pantone Cloud Dancer color palettes
Pantone curated 7 color palettes featuring their 2026 Color of the Year Cloud Dancer, and we've put together bundles to interpret each of them.
This one is my favorite: Tropic Tonalities. So bright and happy! I knew this bundle had to be made of Moda's Bella Solids since they have the brightest yellow: Electric Lemon.
The "Comfort Zone" palette is my second fave - go check them out to see which ones you like best.

✔️ Check out the 3 simple things you can do for better quilt piecing, written Darla-style: sometimes witty, always helpful.

Deco Diamonds Quilt Kits
Deco Diamonds is the newest pattern by Eva of Gingerly Quilt Co, and we've made some dark and dramatic colorways for you. I love a dark background on a quilt, and if you're like me, you'll like these.
This one is called Broadway, and there are 2 others: Emerald and Plum. Oh, and we also have the cover version in Royal!

5 more colors of 108" wide
Sometimes you just want a ginormous 108” fabric square for your quilt backings and call ‘er done.
We added 5 more colors to our lineup of 3-yard packs of 108” wide 100% cotton Kona Wide: Aqua, Candy Pink, Snow, Rich Red, and Black. So handy for finishing up a quilt!

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.
