From the maker

Hoffman California Fabrics, established in 1924 by Rube P. Hoffman, continues its legacy of innovation and artistry under the direction of the fourth generation of the Hoffman family. Known worldwide for design excellence and superior quality, the company invites makers to participate in the 37th Annual Hoffman Challenge. The centerpiece of the 2026–2027 Hoffman Challenge is Coffee Shoppe, a stunning new batik collection featuring 18 rich and cozy tones—from earthy browns and deep blues to taupe, burnt orange, and charcoal. Participants are required to use at least 5 of the 18 featured batiks and are encouraged to highlight their creations with threads from the coordinating Aurifil thread set— ten small spools of 50wt thread in a warm, inviting palette that perfectly complements the collection’s comforting hues.

This set includes one spool of each of the following colors: 2000, 4666, 2155, 2360, 2692, 6728, 4012, 4671, 2915, 6722
