Kapaia Stitchery
Lihue, Hawaii · Ships online too · Since 1973
Kauai's largest and longest-running quilting fabric store, selling Hawaiian-themed fabrics and quilts since 1973.
Kapaia Stitchery has been Kauai's quilting fabric store since 1973, which makes it both the island's largest and its longest-running, more than fifty years of selling Hawaiian-themed fabrics and quilts to an island that takes its quilting tradition seriously. Hawaiian quilting is its own distinct art form, built on bold, symmetrical, appliquéd designs, and a shop that's carried it this long has earned real credibility in the craft.
The shelves hold Hawaiian-print fabrics and traditional Hawaiian quilt patterns alongside batiks for a more contemporary palette, plus quilt kits for anyone who wants to start a Hawaiian-style project without piecing together every element themselves.
If you're visiting Kauai, or shopping specifically for authentic Hawaiian quilting fabric and patterns, Kapaia Stitchery's fifty-plus years make it the obvious stop, small towns don't keep a fabric shop open that long by accident.
