Fat Quarter Patterns

Browse our selection of fat quarter quilt patterns here.

Fat quarters are the friendliest way to buy fabric: an 18" x 22" cut that gives you enough variety for a whole quilt without committing to yardage. These patterns are written for fat quarter bundles, so you can pick a fat quarter bundle you love and start cutting the same day.

You will find quick one-block throws, scrappy sampler quilts, table toppers and bags here — anything that uses a handful of coordinated cuts instead of long strips. Many designs list a fat quarter option alongside a layer cake or jelly roll alternative, so the same pattern works with whatever precut is already in your stash.

New to fat quarters? Start with a pattern that needs 10 to 12 cuts — that is one standard bundle, no extra shopping. Free options are collected in our free quilt patterns library.

Shop patterns by precut: 10" Square (Layer Cake) · 2.5" Strip (Jelly Roll) · 5" Charm Pack · Fat Quarter · Panel · By the Yard · All Precut Patterns · Free Quilt Patterns
