This listing used to be for Kona Bay Fabrics. Although there appear to be some of those still available, the "Kona Bay" website is down, and there are mentions of the company closing several years ago. Apparently there have been two different fabric lines: "Kona Bay Fabrics" and "Kona", the latter still offering solid color quilting cottons from Robert Kaufman.
