Polka Dot Fat Quarters!

I know how overwhelming it can be when shopping for fabrics online. There are thousands of fabrics to choose from! Where do we begin?  It can be quite daunting when trying to match one fabric with another as each computer monitor displays colors differently.   Sometimes it helps to purchase a fat quarter or a 'fat quarter bundle'.

What are Fat Quarters?  What are Fat Quarter Bundles? 

Generally speaking,  1/4 of a yard will give you a strip of fabric which measures about  9" x 44"

However, a fat quarter is cut differently ....  see below

Fat quarters are very popular among quilters and crafters because
 they offer more versatility especially for patchwork and appliqué

A Fat Quarter bundle is just a collection of fat quarters.  
In the next few upcoming weeks,  you will find me adding 
exciting Fat Quarter Bundles in my shop



Riley Blake Designs's MEDIUM Dots ...  LOVE!!

The SMALL Dots Collection is a great basis fabric to have on hand for all of your sewing needs!


There's just something about polka dots.... I love them!!

I would love to hear about what you like to make with Fat Quarters.  
I will be sharing with you some Fat Quarter projects in the next few weeks.
