Lots of new Robert Kaufman precuts are available in our shop now. We got many Fat Quarters, Roll-ups and Charm Packs from the popular collection Spot On. And if you prefer single-colored precuts, there are many solid bundles in lots of colors and formats. Also new: Half-Rolls. Like roll-ups they consist of many long stripes of fabric that are rolled up, but with 20 pieces they are just half the size of their bigger Roll-up siblings.

We have lots of new pre-cuts in our shop and while lots of them are in plain colors, there are also a couple taken from designer collections. There are super cool Charm packs and Fat Quarter boxes from Patty Young’s Just My Type collection and Emily Herrick’s Technicolor collection. Also there are different Fat Quarters from Violet Craft’s Waterfront Park collection, Aurelia Manouvrier’s Somerset collection and Bren Talavera’s collections Sierra and Felicity.
We have been selling fabric bundles for a while, but you might have had a hard time finding them, as they were scattered in all our fabric categories. As we already carry quite a selection we now decided to open a new fabric bundles category where you can find all different kinds of bundles we carry in one spot: Fat Quarters, Roll ups, charm packs and ten squares.
Fabric bundles are great for sewing little accessories and applications, but they also make a great gift. In the next days and weeks we will also add quite a few new bundles by Robert Kaufman.
Oh Gosh, where do we start? In the last days and weeks we really have been adding lots of new fabrics. First of all we have new suppliers. Now you can find lovely fabrics from the Canadian manufacturer Camelot and the American manufacturer David Textiles in our shop. The latter also supplies us with the super cool Skelanimals fabrics which we will introduce soon more detailed. Also we added some big panel fabrics by David Textiles which are perfect for quilting.
Robert Kaufman sent us new fabrics too in all materials available (cotton, flannel, jersey, corduroy). We have adorable new designs from Ann Kelle’s Urban Zoologie collection and super cute forest animal prints from the Forest playground collection. If you like cool retro prints you should check out all the new Jersey fabrics by Amy Biggers.
Since we added Fat Quarter fabric bundles to our shop, they always sold out super quickly, so be fast if you want one of the new items based on Colorstories by Robert Kaufman.
We already showed you the Kokka fabric booth at the Japan Hobby Show last week. But as sewing was a major theme at the trade show in Tokyo we also visited lots of other fabric booths. In fact is was a real fabric wonderland. Everywhere there were piles of fat quartes, fabric swatches and bolts, it would have taken days to look at every single fabric. Plus all the manufacturers had lots of lovely clothes, bags, home decor and more sewn with their textiles, so that you could see what to do with them. It was a great inspiration.

Today we show you lots of cute fabrics and fashion accessories that we discovered when visiting Sunshine City during one of our last business trips to Tokyo. Japan is the home of kawaii, so of course we saw lots of super cute outfits in the shops. Everything from head to toe is super cute, there were tons of adorable socks for example.
If you like to sew yourself Sunshine City is the place for you too, because you can get lovely fabrics, buttons, ribbons and all the accessories you need there. We spotted lots of echino fabrics that we also sell in our online shop.
