Our new arrivals have been top notch lately 👌 We have been getting in the loveliest corduroy, viscose prints, velour, and linens - with more being delivered everyday! Some of our favorites have been these linen/viscose giant seersuckers, which have the MOST amazing texture. We would pair these seersuckers with the #MMOmilie for the perfect dress for layering. We are also loving these 14 wale cotton corduroys, which have a beautiful cozy hand. Pair them with the #MMQuinn for the ultimate pair of corduroy trousers. And don't forget to check out our New Arrivals category on our website for even more inspiration!

Thank you so much for taking the time to shop with us this weekend during our Shop Small Sale. We are so appreciative of your support and we love seeing all the amazing fabrics you have picked out! Our team is working hard to get your online orders cut and shipped to you quickly, so it should be just a few days before these gorgeous fabrics are in your hands. This may be our busiest weekend of the year, but don't forget that we're here year round and open seven days a week with every little thing you might need for your next project!

We spent all weekend talking about shopping small, but today we're sewing small! Feeling a bit silly, we were inspired to find the absolute tiniest things we could in the shop—and, who knew, we are surrounded by them! From petite fabric patterns to nanoscopic notions, here's a selection of diminutive delights!

A shared love of fabric and sewing connects our staff with our community of sewists. We are thrilled to help you find the perfect fabric for your garment pattern, build a cohesive palette for your quilt, or figure out how to make your weird Halloween costume idea come to life! It's a total delight to hear back from you after you've completed your projects, to see photos of what you made, and to hear what you'll be working on next!

As a family-owned, independent business in Berkeley since 1981 (with a family history in textiles going back decades before that), we're so grateful to you, our community of sewists, for the ongoing support of the shop! And now for a bit of trivia: Have you ever wondered which fabrics we've enjoyed stocking and sewing since Stonemountain & Daughter first opened?

1. Paisley was all the rage when owner Suzan's dad, Bob, opened his West Hollywood fabric shop in 1967, and it's become a classic motif that we love to sew with and wear today! Today we stock paisley prints on cotton, rayon, and more—a few favorites include hand-printed fabric from India and imported cottons from Japan!

2. We've had a wonderful partnership with one of our original cotton ikat fabric suppliers since Stonemountain & Daughter opened in 1981, and we've been thrilled to bring designer deadstock ikats from Laura & Kiran into the shop this year!

3. Stonemountain & Daughter has cultivated family connections in the L.A., NYC, and European textile markets for over six decades! These connections have given us the opportunity to bring designer deadstock fabrics into the shop, like the wool challis and jersey pictured here—popular back in the day, and highlights of our wonderful wool collection today.

4. Alexander Henry fabrics have been a fixture of Stonemountain & Daughter since the very beginning. The Alexander Henry design team hand-paints original art for their fabrics—these are fun and unique patterns you won't find anywhere else! These quilting cottons are high-quality with a nice hand, so they are great for apparel, accessories, and home decor as well.

Of course we love sewing garments, but there's something so relaxing about stitching up a quick batch of home dec accessories! As the days get shorter and the holidays approach, we're on the lookout for projects to help us embrace the coziness of the season—and with that in mind, this week we're launching our new Bowl Cozy Kits. If you've been searching for a quick, satisfying sewing project, we think you'll really love this one!

Each kit contains everything you'll need to make the free Bowl Cozy Pattern by Kim Heggins for Stonemountain & Daughter Fabrics. We love that this pattern is quick and easy, and that it's a small project to make and enjoy as we prepare to cozy up in our homes this winter. Sew a bowl cozy and keep your hands comfortable while you eat all your favorite cold-weather meals!

Each kit includes all the materials you'll need (fabric, cotton batting, Insul-Bright, thread) to make a set of three bowl cozies—perfect for watching the next big game or movie marathon at your place. They also make great stocking stuffers!

New pattern alert! Available today in the shop is the newest pattern from Closet Core: the Fran Pajamas. And can we just say, we think they are Fran-tastic! These classic pajamas have beautiful tailored elements and an effortlessly chic, slouchy fit. The Fran also has a great size range, with a 33" to 62" hip all in one envelope! We think you're going to be fast Frans with this pattern!

We are flannel fans here at Stonemountain and Daughter, so we are happy to report that this pattern is perfect for pairing with a cozy cotton flannel. We are so excited to make the ultimate winter lounging outfit with the Fran Pajamas and our Mammoth flannel. This pattern also works wonderfully with shirtings, linens, and drapey fabrics like rayon or silk.

Who's planning on sewing a pair? 🙋

Rayon is one of our favorite breezy summer fabrics, but there's no reason to put it away now that autumn has arrived! While rayon is gorgeous on its own, fall and winter bring opportunities for layering rayon with our favorite cozy pieces. We love pairing a light rayon top with a treasured handknit cardigan, or layering a flowy rayon skirt over comfy leggings and boots. We have hundreds of beautiful rayons and rayon blends in stock, so there's a rayon for every look!

These three fabrics will make a lovely group of fall separates! We love this deadstock batik print for a #ClosetCoreNicks blouse, which will look fantastic paired with the #CalderPants or #EstuarySkirt in a pretty rayon twill. We love the subtle pattern of this leaf print poplin, perfect for a cheerful #PatinaBlouse to wear with your favorite fall sweater!

These fabrics are just too beautiful in motion - we couldn't resist showing you them in their full glory! These two fabrics are new to the shop and are both rayon/viscose with a gorgeous satin weave. This gives them a beautiful shine that plays wonderfully with their fluid drape. These fabrics are also opaque, meaning you can forgo the lining for dresses, skirts, and lightweight pants. We are dreaming up a luxurious pajama set with the #MNReef or a slinky #SaltwaterSlip Raise your hand if you want some yardage 🙋

Our tips for sewing with slippy rayon are to first pre-wash and dry your rayon. Sew with an all-purpose polyester thread and a fresh sewing machine needle—we recommend using the smallest size needle available, whether it’s Universal (suitable for all fabric types) or Microtex (extra sharp). Need interfacing for your project? Presto Sheer Fusible is perfect for rayon wovens.

We've had a fun few days of celebrating corduroy, and we've got one more post to share before our cotton wovens sale (that's 15% off cotton wovens with coupon code CORD15) ends tonight!

At 16–21 wale per inch, pinwale is the lightest weight of corduroy we carry. It is soft and lightweight with a gentle drape, and is a great choice for children's clothes, button-up shirts, and dresses. We've got these pretty patterned corduroys from Japan in mind for patterns like the #FridayHughes dress and the #MBRCleo skirt!

When one of our sales associates let us know about Corduroy Appreciation Day, we had to find a way to celebrate! Our staff member, Alex, heard about it from an episode of Articles of Interest, a show about what we wear. Corduroy Appreciation Day, as it turns out, is observed on 11/11, the date that most resembles corduroy—so clever! We decided that this is the perfect occasion to feature one of our favorite fall fabrics, corduroy.

Corduroy fabric is woven and then shorn, creating a ridged pile pattern parallel to the selvage edge. The ridges, or wale, have a stripy appearance and a velvety, brushed texture. Corduroy is soft, warm, and durable, and is a great choice for jackets, pants, bags, and more! The corduroy pictured here is midweight—it works well for pants, heavier shirts, and dresses, and it's the weight you're most likely to see ready-to-wear garments.

Corduroy is just one of the stars in our cotton wovens category—these fabrics are great on their own, and even better together! Now through Sunday, November 12th, take 15% off your purchase of full-price cotton wovens—it's a collection full of quality fabrics like denim, gingham, canvas, quilting cottons, double gauze, shirting, and many more! Shop online or in-store, but be sure to use coupon code CORD15 at checkout.

Do you find your bias-bond necklines are a bit too stiff, but don't want to make your own bias tape? You might try our beautifully soft double gauze bias tape! It has a nice soft hand, but it still stable and easy to sew. We have 18 colors in stock now, so you're sure to find one to match your project!

Our favorite bias tape tip is to press the bias tape into the curve you are binding before sewing it to the garment. This helps get a perfectly smooth, flat finish. What is your favorite trick for working with bias tape? Tell us in the comments!

New to our shop are the MOST adorable collection of cotton towelings! We are obsessed with the cowboy boots 🤠 These fabrics are 16 inches wide and already hemmed on two sides, which means you can sew a new dish towels in minutes! These also make the perfect quick and easy holiday gift. A standard tea towel is 16" x 28", so you will want to purchase 7/8 yard for every towel you want to make (and this gives you plenty for hemming the short edges). What do you think - will you making one for yourself or as a gift? 🎁
