Welcome To Cotton Candy Fabrics
Cotton Candy Fabrics is two independent quilt shops in Connecticut and also serves customers online 24/7 at their website, cottoncandyfabrics.com. Our shops are located in Brookfield, CT and Simsbury, CT at:
We specialize in high-quality quilting cottons, precuts, quilt kits, sewing patterns, notions, and fabric for both modern and traditional quilters. Our Apparel Fabrics Studio in Brookfield offers garment-friendly fabrics, patterns, and supplies for sewists who love to create wearables. With expert staff, an ever-evolving range of designer collections, and a welcoming in-store and online experience, both Cotton Candy Fabrics locations are a trusted destination for quilters across the U.S. and around the world.
Founded in 2018 by lifelong fabric lover and creative entrepreneur Erin Byrne, Cotton Candy Fabrics was born from a passion for community, color, and the belief that quilting is a rare art form—one that blends storytelling, beauty, and functional design. Since day one, Erin and our team have worked to grow our offerings to meet the needs of quilting friends near and far.
Our mission is to inspire creativity and connection by offering top-quality products, expert education, and a supportive community where all makers—whether beginner or seasoned stitcher—can learn, laugh, and grow. From your first quilt block to your next heirloom, we’re here to help you dream big, sew boldly, and find joy in every stitch. This passion for supporting sewists has helped Cotton Candy Fabrics be Connecticut’s Favorite Local Quilt Shop in ByAnnie.com’s annual LQS contest!
