About Us

The Common Thread is a Canadian online fabric shop based in beautiful Cobourg, Ontario.
We offer gorgeous, high quality quilting cottons by the metre and in thoughtfully curated bundles as well as all the must-have notions to simplify your quilting process.

Welcome to The Common Thread, I’m Stephanie and I’m happy you’re here. I am an avid quilter, Sewist and maker and love the community, the connection and the common thread that is found in quilting.

I have two (not so little) muses that have inspired me and challenged me to create a fun and joyful life. We live and daydream in Northumberland County on the shores of Lake Ontario with my dear and supportive husband and Hazel the tailless tabby cat and resident quilt quality control expert. ❤️
