Kona Bay Loves Our "Magical Flight" Dragonflies


Kona Bay Fabrics has been in love with its dragonfly fabrics for many. many years. The Japanese word for dragonfly is "Tombo" and we have been producing Tombo collections for ages!

Our customers insist we keep producing these dragonfly fabrics as they keep selling very, very well in quilt shops.

Perhaps you even have several of the different Kona Bay dragonfly prints in your fabric stash.

Our latest collection -- MAGICAL FLIGHT -- is a gorgeous multi-colored design and these fabrics will be available in shops in February.

Our sales reps will soon have these color boards and will be showing our quilt shop customers very, very soon.

We hope you LOVE them as much as we do!!

Kona Bay Fabrics Loves the Geishas





Kona Bay Fabrics has been producing gorgeous Geisha fabrics since its inception in 1991.

Quilters and crafters have come to rely on Kona Bay for making beautiful Asian fabrics and we know our new group - GEISHA ROYALTY - will continue the tradition.

This is the red/black colorway from GEISHA ROYALTY and the other blue colorway is equally stunning!

We will soon be releasing the color boards to our hard working sales team who will be showing to quilt shop owners this month.

We will keep you posted when this elegant fabric collection is released to the quilt shops early next year.

Quilt Market Fast Approaching


The International Quilt Market is the quilting industry's BIG SHOW and this year the Fall show will be held in Houston, TX on OCT. 29 - 31.

Kona Bay has been attending Quilt Market since our beginning in 1991.

In addition to showing off our latest fabric selections, Kona Bay has always had a special treat for our quilt shop customers and, once again, it will be chocolate macadamia nuts from Hawaii.

I know some will enjoy a licorice whip or a Tootsie roll at other booths, but it is no comparison to Kona Bay's chocolate macadamia nut candy!!

So, if you are attending, please make sure you swing by our booths -- 1220 and 1321 - and check out the new wonderful fabric collections as well as enjoying our wonderful candy from beautiful Hawaii.
