NYC’s Coolest Fabric Store

Ever since we started selling fabric online in 2018, customers have told us they wished they could see our fabrics in person. Now you can! We’ve just moved to The Big Apple and we're open for in-person shopping by appointment.

Local sewists have told us that there’s a great need for our fabrics here in NYC. We’re happy to step in. We connect modern makers with heritage textiles from India and have a curated selection of the finest fabrics from Japan. All are natural fibers for sustainable sewing and quilting.

Our office is in a pleasant neighborhood near the iconic Flatiron Building. This part of Broadway is a pedestrian zone, and in summer the cafes and restaurants spill out into the street. All our customers will feel comfortable here, whether you’re a local or visiting from out of town.

With a bigger space, we now have a hand-picked selection of sewing patterns that complement our fabrics. We've squeezed in a good range of notions, including many of our personal favorites, as well as sewing books and thread. Plus a feast of fat quarters and an ever-changing assortment of vintage buttons and textiles.
