Holidays! Whether it’s a trip abroad, or a staycation at the coast, we all need a break. So whether you’re surfing the waves, diving to a coral reef, dodging a great white shark, or simply looking for a spot for your beach towel and lolly, these designs have you covered. These printed cotton fabrics are ideal for quilting, perfect for easy summer sewing such as bunting, bags, sun dresses and shorts.

As well as the fabrics by the metre, there’s a lovely print with large square (sold in strips of 25cm) and a large world map panel measuring 90 x 112cm. These fabrics coordinate really well with many solid colours including Sorbet Pink, Tahiti and Nautical Blue, shown here.

Manufacturers: Dashwood, Freespirit Fabrics and Michael Miller

100% quality quilting cotton, 112cm / 42-in wide.

These fabrics are priced and sold by the quarter metre (equivalent price is £14-16.00/m). We’ll automatically cut a long quarter (25x112cm), but if you’d prefer a fat quarter (50x56cm), just mark the box when adding to your basket. Larger quantities are always cut as a continuous length. So, for half a metre, add a quantity of 2 to your basket; for 1 metre, add 4; for 2 metres, add 8 and so on.
