Looking for a handwork refresh? I’m delighted to share new Sew Fine Thread Gloss scents in Yuzu, Orange Blossom and Petal! As with any of the scents that I’ve collaborated with Sew Fine to bring to you, I’ve personally spent a lot of time working with each of these new scents over the last several months. I find each to be delightful in their own way, and I hope that they strike a chord similarly with you too.
Let’s meet the new scents!
Yuzu
Yuzu is a slightly tart, slightly sweet, citrusy scent that is both fresh and light. It is easy to like and very uplifting. To me there’s nothing more refreshing than citrusy smells. This one has its own special twist that I think is just right.
Orange Blossom
Orange Blossom is a scent very near and dear to my heart. I’ve spent a good majority of my life around orange trees, and the smell of the blossoms in the spring is like nothing else! It’s such a distinct scent, and this one captures it like few things do. Orange Blossom doesn’t really smell like oranges, to me it’s highly floral, only slightly citrusy and very fresh.
Petal
Petal is a floral scent that has the feel to me of getting dressed up. It is a lush blend of orchid and osmanthus with warm hints of bergamot, sandalwood and musk.
Each of these new scents are available now in the shop. If you aren’t looking for something scented, you can always go the Natural route.
Want to know more about thread gloss?
I love using thread gloss, because it strengthens my threads and makes handwork an easier and more enjoyable experience. For the record, I never thought I’d like using scented gloss, but it turns out I totally love it. The scents are all light enough to not be overpowering or stay with you or your project too long, but they are present enough to bring a special, enjoyable comfort to the sewing experience. I’m a big fan.
I’ll link a few relevant posts below if you’d like to find out more.

Hi Carolyn-hope you are having a great day. I don’t believe I initially read your post on “why I love collaborating with Sew Fine”. It is an interesting post. You call yourself a nerd for liking certain things and for your reasoning on switching scents while quilting….it isn’t really…it makes sense. I believe the environment around us does have an effect on us and so, does smell. I actually think it’s great…your thoughts on this and the post is very interesting. You know the adage, “there is a reason for everything”? Well, to sum up everything you carry in your shop and about yourself is this: There is a reason why you carry the items in the shop you have….it is more than just because you like them and want to make a profit….it is because you actually believe in them in more than, “oh this is pretty” or “oh this smells nice” etc…there is more behind it and more behind you. That is why you are so, talented you have substance.
Thank you.
