I keep seeing gorgeous projects splattered all over the likes of Etsy, Craft, Purl Bee etc etc using wonderful retro or bold print fabrics, with lovely colour combinations and quirky patterns, but can never find any fabrics that even come close to being as lovely. Are there some secret online shops that I don't know about? !! I have some projects I really want to try that need fat quarters, but just can't find any that don't look like old bedding or Laura Ashley circa 1970.

... and why are they called fat quarters?

SilverSixpence · 14/04/2009 22:42

fat quarters are just a quarter of a yard, but made by cutting a half yard piece in half through the middle, rather than into two skinny quarters if you see what i mean.

i buy my fabric on etsy mostly, it doesnt work out much more expensive if you buy enough

How about Cottonpatch? Good mix of fabrics.

Very addictive.

Ebay is great too - this is one of my favourite sellers
