Sewing Notions & Supplies for Quilters

If you're a beginning quilter, you may find the number of sewing supplies to be a bit overwhelming. We have several hundred sewing notions online at Fat Quarter Shop. The good news is that novice stitchers don't need every tool right out of the gate – but there are some essential sewing notions you'll need to get started.

As you become more experienced, you'll discover additional sewing accessories that can streamline the quilting process. For now, make sure you have the following sewing notions and supplies before you begin your quilted masterpiece:

Sewing Notions & Supplies for Every Stage

There are three stages to making a quilt or creating any sewing project, and Fat Quarter Shop has the sewing notions and supplies for each one.

Preparing to Sew

There is a lot of work that takes place before putting needle to fabric. Measuring, cutting and pinning are just a few of the tasks you'll need to perform before you start sewing. From the measuring tape to the pattern to marking pens, we have the notions to help you make prep work as smooth as possible.

Sewing Your Fabric

High quality thread is definitely essential when it comes to sewing a quilt – or anything else, for that matter. You'll also need a supply of hand and sewing machine needles in various sizes to accommodate different fabrics. Let's not forget seam rippers. Even the most experienced stitcher keeps a seam ripper handy. We've all had our hand slip when we're trying to applique a piece – and occasionally a sneeze has been known to create a zig-zag where none was intended.

Finishing Your Quilt

Quilt batting is among the sewing supplies you'll need to finish your quilt.  Sewing notions also play a part in the finishing flourishes for your quilt. Some quilters add buttons, trim or other decorative elements to give their project a unique look. And don't forget the thimbles – they're a necessity if you're doing any hand-sewing.

Fabric and Sewing Supplies for Everyone

Of course, quilters aren't the only ones who need fabric and sewing supplies. Anyone who sews needs the basics. And if you're sewing clothing, making purses or embarking on another stitching adventure, you'll need things like zippers, hooks and other fasteners.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sewing Notions


Given the vast quantity of sewing notions, it's no wonder we often get questions about them. If you have a question about sewing supplies or any product we sell, please get in touch. We're always happy to help our quilters!


What Are Sewing Notions?

Sewing notions are pretty much everything involved in making a quilt – apart from the fabric.


Why Are They Called Sewing Notions?

The word "notion," which is synonymous with "clever invention," was adopted in late 18th Century America to describe inexpensive, useful items that were sold in shops. It's interesting to note that in Great Britain the term used for sewing notions is haberdashery. A haberdasher was someone who sold small things.


What Types of Sewing Supplies Do You Sell?

Fat Quarter Shop provides everything you need for your sewing project. From basic supplies to nice-to-have notions, we have the sewing tools and accessories that make quick work of any task.
