If you’re thinking of gifting fabric to someone who loves sewing, you might be wondering which fabric to choose. Here’s a simple guide to help you pick the perfect fabric:

For bag makers: Sturdy fabrics like canvas or oxford are ideal. Lightweight canvas is easy to handle and great for any level.

For garment makers: Our cotton sheeting fabrics are perfect for clothing projects - lightweight, easy to sew, and versatile for dresses, shirts, and more. Lawn fabric is also good choice for lightweight clothes.

For quilters: Unique prints can really elevate a quilt. We recommend exploring our collection of Japanese print fabrics for a creative touch.

Once you’ve chosen the designs, the next step is deciding on the yardage. We sell fabric by half-yard increments, so simply enter the quantities you need.

For bag makers: A simple magazine-size tote usually takes about 1 yard. Many bag patterns work well with 1.5–2 yards.

For garment makers: A simple dress typically requires 3–3.5 yards.

For quilters: Small pieces can be fun to mix and match for your quilt. We recommend ordering multiple half-yard cuts or choosing a fabric bundle for variety.

*Listed price on our website is for every half yard. If you need 1 yard for example, please add 2 units at cart.

If you want a quick and easy option, we recommend our pre-cut fabric bundles, sewing kits, or digital gift cards.

Fabric bundle: A beautiful set of 6 fabric sheets, each approximately 18" x 22".

Sewing kit: Our Shoulder Knot Tote Bag Kit is a bestseller and makes a fun, complete project gift.
