The Material Girls (my sewing group) are getting together again soon. We exchanged fat quarters at Christmas with the intention of using them for a project at this month’s meeting. I thought I would do a roundup of fat quarter projects everyone could use as inspiration! I love fat quarters, but since I don’t quilt all that often (yet) it is helpful to have a project list that uses them up for other small projects.
The projects below all use up 1 or 2 fat quarters each, but most use less than 1. Have fun planning! And if you have a lot of gorgeous fat quarters that you don’t know what to do with (like myself!) you can follow my new Pinterest Fat Quarter Project board, I’m sure I will be updating it as I find more projects.

This is great! I do have quite a few fat quarters waiting for me to do something with them. Thank you so much for posting this, although my list of projects keeps growing with every single post 🙂
Hey Laura, Sorry about the list – just passing on ideas from what I’m picking up online!! 🙂
I saw these projects coming by on your Pinterest board. I even re-pinned a few. They are great! I do recognize what Laura said. That the list of sewing projects keeps growing with every single post. Keep up the good work 😉
Hee Hee! I’m glad you like the list Mirjam! Thanks for re-pinning the projects 🙂 I hope they help!
Such a great way to use up those odds and ends and even more fun to do it with friends.
I loved the swap. I think we’ll have to do it again this year. It’s fun to see what you get! 🙂
