We hope your summer is already humming with the sound of sewing machines and the rustle of beautiful fabrics. Here at Sallie Tomato, we’re welcoming the warmest months with a wave of creativity and colorful momentum—and June is already shaping up to be one of our most exciting yet.
From new pattern translations to one-of-a-kind cork releases, and a fresh leap into the world of cosplay, there’s plenty to explore this month. So, grab an iced coffee, settle into your favorite sewing spot, and catch up on everything we’ve been stitching together for you.
Introducing: Sallie Tomato en Español
It’s official—Sallie Tomato patterns are now bilingual! We’re thrilled to share that some of our best-loved patterns are now available in Spanish. Whether you're crafting for yourself, teaching a workshop, or helping a friend fall in love with sewing, these translations make our patterns more accessible than ever.
Starting with the Zippy Crossbody Bags, Ferris Fanny Packs, and Lucky Penny Wallet, this launch is just the beginning of our commitment to making creativity a language everyone can speak.
A New Designer Cork You’ll Fall For
Colleen Underwood’s latest cork design is here, and it’s a showstopper. Weekend Walk is a dreamy purple floral layered over natural cork, evoking a calm Sunday morning stroll through blooming gardens. This design pairs perfectly with our Rustic Amethyst Cork for a cohesive, elegant palette that feels like summer at its finest.
This is a limited-edition cork that won’t be restocked, so if it’s calling your name, don’t wait. This is one of those prints that’s destined to inspire your next signature piece.
July marks the final featured cork in Colleen’s guest designer series, and it’s the grand finale we’ve all been waiting for. If you’re not yet a member, now is the perfect time to join. As part of the club, you’ll enjoy early access to exclusive corks, special coupons, and monthly inspiration that keeps your creativity flowing. The finale of this series promises to be something truly special.

Sallie Tomato Enters the Cosplay World
We’ve always believed that sewing should be as bold and expressive as you are. That’s why we’re so excited to launch our very first pattern designed specifically for costume creators: the Cosplay Accessories Belt.
This new design combines utility and flair with features like a cinch pouch, phone holder, and dramatic rivet accents—perfect for conventions, costume parties, and Renaissance fairs alike. Whether you’re crafting for yourself or a cosplay-loving friend, this pattern brings a whole new layer of fun to your sewing queue.
