Buy Novelty Fabrics

“Novelty” is such a splendid word to describe anything original or particularly noteworthy, which is exactly how we would describe our selection of novelty quilt fabrics! 

What is considered a novelty fabric, you ask? Novelty fabric examples could include anything from baseball prints, digitally printed animal fabrics, food fabric, and even licensed brand prints like Disney or NFL. If we’ve ever had the pleasure of seeing you in Quilt Town, USA, you’ve probably seen many novelty fabric prints like these in our shop, Licensed to Sew! We’ve heard many guests describe it as one of our most “colorful” shops, which makes sense because novelty fabrics for quilting usually are super vibrant and appealing. If you haven’t gotten a chance to come see our selection of novelty fabrics by the yard in person, don’t worry, you can still explore our large variety of novelty quilting fabric and other unique fabric prints in our online quilt shop!

So, what is novelty fabric used for in the first place? The short answer is: whatever you want! But if you want more of a novelty fabric definition we’re happy to oblige: novelty quilting fabric prints are typically used for themed projects, like “I Spy” quilts! “I Spy” quilts are literally fun quilts made of a hodgepodge of novelty fabric prints. Jenny explains more about “I Spy” to you in the tutorial below! 

Novelty fabric is also often used for adding a surprising, eye-catching detail to a project that stands out against the rest of the fabrics. It’s actually super easy to find novelty fabric online because it’s one of the top most sought after cotton print fabrics. If you’re one of those quilting champs who prefers cotton print fabric by the yard to precuts, you’re in luck because most novelty fabric is made by the yard! But if you do prefer precuts, you’ll find a great variety of novelty fabric fat quarters and even novelty fabric panels with us.

So if you’re ready to explore and learn more about cotton novelty fabric, head over to our selection today! We’re sure you’ll love everything you see, from name brand fabrics to our darling variety of children's novelty fabric.
