Introducing Thimblelina: A Magical Sewing Adventure

What if, while you were fast asleep, tiny fairies fluttered into your sewing room—cutting, stitching, and tidying up, bringing a little bit of magic to your projects?

Meet Thimblelina. No bigger than a thimble, she and her woodland friends come to life in fabric, ready to inspire projects filled with whimsy, creativity, and storytelling. Whether you’re sewing for a little one, adding something special to a quilt, or creating heirloom pieces, Thimblelina brings a playful touch to every project.


This collection is designed for makers of all ages—from quilters who love nostalgia to little hands learning to sew. With fabric panels, dolls, a soft book, and even a magical cheater print, there’s something for every kind of creator.

A Collection Designed for Storytelling & Play

Thimblelina brings together sewing, imagination, and hands-on creativity. With thoughtful designs and a touch of fairy magic, this collection offers endless possibilities.
