Fabric & Notions for Sewing & Quilting

Start with your project and the fiber it needs. Quilting cotton and printed cotton sit around 44 inches wide and sell by the yard or fat quarter (roughly 18 x 22 inches), so a quilt top or apparel run usually means buying multiple cuts from the same dye lot. Linen, double gauze, and canvas suit garments, bags, and home goods; check weight in GSM or ounces and prewash anything that may shrink. Then match the finishing supplies: ribbon and lace by the yard for trims, cotton or polyester piping for cushion and upholstery edges, and notions like buttons, snaps, zippers, bias tape, and thread to complete the make. Most makers cut and ship yardage in 3-7 business days; hand-dyed or limited prints can run longer. Expect roughly $4-$15 per fat quarter, $8-$30 per yard for cotton and linen, and $2-$12 for trims and notions.
