9 Fat Quarter Projects

 

Let’s talk about fat quarters. They are beautiful, inexpensive, and at every fabric store. But what can you even do with them.

I always end up at the fat quarter corner going through the prepackaged bundles  hoping to be inspired and trying to convince myself I can’t buy it for a future project.

I can seen how they would be perfect for quilters, but I am not much of a quilter. So I set out into the internet to find some fun projects to do with 18×22 inches of joy. Here is what I found:

 

 

 

 

Coasters from the Split Stich. These are adorable and I love them. And think of the holiday possibilities.

 

 

 

 

 

Gym bag from I’m a Ginger Monkey, Included on her site is a PDF of the project so you can easily recreate it.

 

 

 

Kindle/iPad case from Charm Stick. This is way cuter than my current iPad case.

 

 

 

 

 

Business card or Gift card holder from My So Called Green Life:  I have a business card holder similar to this one and it’s perfect. Business cards always get destroyed in my purse and I don’t want them in my wallet so this is perfect. I also love the idea of giving them out with gift cards! Perfect.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Covered canvas from Blue Cricket Design: This is already on my to-do list for my new apartment.

 

 

 

Fabric pumpkins from Craft Buds. Good thing it’s October and the perfect time to make adorable pumpkins.

 

 

 

 

 

Cosmetic bag from Three Bears. I don’t think you can have too many bags. It’s not possible.

 

 

 

Pot holders from Awaiting Ada: These would make really cute gifts!

 

 

 

 

Bow tie by Awaiting Ada: Adorable
