ABOUT THE COLLECTION
(in stores October 2025)
Step into the enchanting world of Thimbelina, a tiny fairy no bigger than a sewing thimble, who comes to life when we believe! Inspired by the magic of creativity and kindness, this whimsical fabric collection follows Thimbelina and her friends as they sew, quilt, and work together to help others.
Designed to spark imagination and introduce little hands to the joy of sewing, this collection features beautiful fabrics, interactive felt play panels, and charming machine embroidery dolls—perfect for storytelling and hands-on fun. From cozy quilts to adorable craft projects, Thimbelina’s world is filled with magic, teamwork, and the belief that when we create together, something truly special happens.
