Fat Quarters

What Is a Fat Quarter?

It's a term used by quilters.

A fat quarter is a one-fourth yard cut of fabric that (usually) measures 18" x 22" instead of the typical 9" x 44" quarter-yard cut. The longest side's dimension will vary if your fabric is not 44" wide.
A new friend got me hooked on fat quarters. She likes quilting, I like bags, so I used a little quilting inspiration & created my new bag. I will definitely be making more like this, with different colors & variety.
Another new bag (not made with fat quarters) that I made.Keep checking my website as more new bags will continue to be added as they are made!
