Fat Eighth Bundles

What Is a Fat Eighth?

A fat eighth is an eighth of a yard cut wide instead of long, so you get a usable 9" x 21" piece instead of a skinny 4 1/2" strip. A fat eighth bundle gives you one piece of every print in a fabric line, all coordinated and ready to cut. You get a whole collection's worth of variety for less than a fat quarter bundle.

Vintage Floral Fat Eighths

French General's Joie De Vivre Fat Eighth Bundle for Moda is full of vintage inspired florals with a soft French country feel. It's perfect for a scrappy throw, a sampler quilt or a set of pillows, and it qualifies for free US shipping on its own.

Christmas Fat Eighth Bundle

Moda's Buon Natale Fat Eighth Bundle gives you 35 coordinated Christmas prints, enough variety for a holiday quilt, table runner, stockings or a stack of fabric gift bags. Pair it with a Christmas red solid from our Christmas fabric collection for sashing and binding.

Dot and Stripe Fat Eighths

Robert Kaufman's Dot and Stripe Delights Fat Eights Bundle is the easy way to build a blender stash. Dots and stripes work with almost any feature print, and stripes make a fun binding.

Fat Eighths vs Fat Quarters

A fat eighth is half the size of a fat quarter, so it's the better pick when you want lots of different prints in smaller amounts. If your pattern calls for bigger pieces, shop our fat quarter bundles or single fat quarters. For even smaller pieces, try charm packs.

Easy Fat Eighth Projects

Scrappy quilts, doll quilts, table runners, zipper pouches, pillow covers and English paper piecing are all great fits for fat eighths. Pick a bundle, add one background fabric, and you're ready to start cutting.
