If you’re new to quilting, you might want to know, what is a charm pack? Let us tell you all about them! A quilting charm pack is a collection of pre-cut fabric squares that are typically used in quilting and other sewing projects. Charm pack fabric squares measure 5” x 5” and usually come in bundles of 40-42 quilting squares which coordinate with a particular fabric line or collection. When you purchase charm packs, there's no need to spend hours cutting up fabric for your quilt blocks because charm squares are cut to perfection right out of the package!
These quilting squares are created from your favorite fabric collections and cut into easy-to-use, time-saving 5" fabric squares. Charm pack fabric also provides an economical way to sample a particular fabric line without committing to buying full yards of each fabric. This is helpful when you want to see how fabrics from a collection work together in a project before investing in larger quantities.
Quilting with charm packs is a delightful way to introduce vibrant colors and patterns into your project. Each charm pack comes in a near-endless variety of coordinating prints, from florals and playful motifs to geometric designs and classic solids. Charm pack quilting squares allow quilters to create unique projects without having to buy yards of individual fabrics and worry about matching them perfectly.
Charm packs are popular in quilting and are often used to create patchwork quilts, table runners, wall hangings, and quick quilt projects. Charm squares can be combined with other precut fabric shapes, such as jelly rolls (2.5-inch-wide strips) and layer cakes (10-inch squares), to create an even wider range of quilt designs.
You can purchase charm packs from virtually every brand you know and love, including Moda Fabrics, Robert Kaufman, Wilmington Prints, FreeSpirit, Riley Blake, Island Batik, and plenty of others.
