Featured Fabrics
RS Stay Gold Rayon in Pink
$15.90
New from Ruby Star is designer Melody Miller’s Stay Gold Collection. Aptly named, this collection feels like sunset on a summer’s day – bright blooms, moths, and citrus fruits populate a technicolor landscape.
Luxe and drapey, this soft rayon is light without being thin or see-through. Try making an ethereal TATB Martha Dress or a pair of Cashmerette Calder Pants!
7.5oz Jetsetter Stretch Twill in Optic White
$16.50
This 7.5 oz. stretch twill feels like a lightweight denim and has a nice 12% crosswise stretch! It’s the perfect summer fabric, and we’d love to see a cute pair of Getaway Jeans or a Stafford Jacket made from it!
RK Mammoth Flannel in Lilac
$11.50
From Robert Kaufman, these gorgeous plaid flannels feature a combination of richly hued pastels and primary colors. Make a L+C Camp Dress or a pair of Eastwood PJs from this gorgeous fabric
Kendor 16-Wale Stretch Corduroy in Lilac
$25.38
This luxurious corduroy from KenDor Textiles has a touch of spandex to allow 20% crosswise stretch! Wonderfully soft, it is 16 wale, meaning there are 16 “ribs” per inch. At 9.1 ounces per square yard it’s a great weight for kids’ clothing, Tilly and the Buttons Mila Dungarees, or the Closet Core Sasha Trousers!
RK Ehrenstein Illusion Cotton in Turquoise
$11.30
Designed by Vanessa Lillrose & Linda Fitch for Robert Kaufman, the Wishwell: Wilshire cotton collection is made for daydreamers! Featuring a harmonious mix of modern and classic designs (plus a touch of optical illusion!), these fashion cottons are suitable for both quilters and garment makers. A very soft cotton (similar to a lawn or voile), we suggest making a Romy Top or a Posh Blossom quilt with this lovely fabric!
Thick as Thorns Poplin in Lavender
$23.00
This shirt-weight, organic cotton poplin from Kaleidoscope Studio’s Avant Garden collection is soft and breathable. Featuring a nice mix of structure and drape, this vibrant fabric will make a lovely L+C Fitzroy Blouse, Camp Dress, or M&M Florence Top!
Note: This fabric will shrink so be sure to pre-wash!
Kokka Solid Linen Sheeting in Periwinkle
$30.20
This 100% linen from Seven Islands is the perfect lightweight material for shirt making. Featuring vibrant colors and excellent drape, we suggest making a Wardrobe By Me Tropical Shirt or The Sewing Workshop’s Sienna & Cortona Shirt!
AGF Solid Knit in Aloe Mist
$16.50
Art Gallery Knits are wonderful to sew with and are all made in coordinating colors to one another. They are incredibly soft with great drape, have 75% crosswise and 45% lengthwise stretch, and great recovery. We suggest making a Concord Tee or Marais Knit Dress with this solid knit!
Lino Italian Linen in Blue Orchid
$21.90
This 100% Italian linen from Lino Textil features saturated blue orchids layered to create a surrealist print. Possessing a slight sheer quality, we recommend making a Decades of Style No. 107 TLC Caftan or an airy Liesl + Co Fitzroy Blouse!

There is nothing like being able to see and feel fabric in person. The information I was able to access related to each selection was so valuable as I begin to sew again and become acquainted with new techniques, patterns, and notions.”

The swatch service is awesome! I have received both cool and warm tones twice now and really enjoyed all of the swatches. It is nice to be able to touch and feel the fabric and see the colors before deciding. Also the pattern suggestions are very helpful. Thank you to The Confident Stitch!”

How awesome is this for all sewists???!!! Swatches delivered to your door so you can feel them, dream about some makes, plan a capsule wardrobe for the season, and get a discount to boot. I live in a rural area and fabric shopping is difficult so this is just brilliant. Highly recommend the service!
