Providing you with best sellers is one of the things we, well, do best! Here at Missouri Star, we not only have quality quilting products, we have some of the best selling fabric, sewing notions, quilt patterns, and more! So if you’re wondering where you can buy quality quilt fabric, you don’t have to look far because you’re already here. We guarantee you that our selection of quilting fabric is high quality, whether you need classic cottons or burlap! If you’re partial to a specific quilt fabric designer, we most likely carry their products! Moda Fabrics, Robert Kaufman, and Riley Blake Designs are just a few of the many best selling quilt fabric brands we carry, so there’s no doubt you’ll find your favorite designer—you may even discover a new favorite!

If you’re new to quilting and don’t know where to begin with picking quilting fabric, you  might be wondering what the best fabric for quilting is. For most quilts and projects, cotton fabrics are typically the best. Quilting cottons are top-notch as they are 100% cotton fabric and shrink significantly less than cheaper cottons. If you aren’t sure that you’re ready to tackle regular quilt fabric by the yard, precut fabrics are a great way to practice working with fabric and quilting! Precut fabric (or precuts) are literally fabrics that are cut into uniform pieces to save you cutting time and they are used by beginners and advanced quilters alike. We’re particularly proud of our selection of precut fabric, so whether you want to try your hand at quilting with a charm pack or jelly roll, we have plenty to choose from! 

Another good question that many beginning quilters ask is how many different fabrics should be used in a quilt. This question is often answered by another question: How big do you want it to be? The amount of fabric used in a quilt or any project almost always depends on the finished size. For example, one Layer Cake (a pack of 10” squares) is usually enough to make a lap quilt, which measures to be approximately 45” x 65”. Of course, you will need extra fabric for borders, binding, etc., and the required amounts for these should be provided by the pattern you’re following. Quilt kits are great starting points for beginners because they contain all the fabrics you need, some even include enough for the borders and binding! 

Aside from best selling fabric and precuts, we also carry some of the most in-demand notions too! Quilters need quality supplies and templates, so it’s important to us that we supply you with the very best rotary cutters, templates, and all the other essentials. Rulers are an important quilting tool, and a lot of quilters want to know what the best quilting rulers are. Rulers come in various sizes and have a variety of uses depending on your project, but some of our favorite quality brands include: Creative Grids, Omnigrid, and of course, yours truly! And keep in mind that Missouri Star rulers and templates are made especially for use with precut fabrics. For quality rulers and other quilting essentials, browse even more Quilting Rulers, Tools, & Templates HERE.

Another kind of best seller that quilters (and non-quilters) like to shop for are gifts! If you’re a friend, spouse, or family member who needs to know what a good gift for a quilter is, we have a spectacular selection of novelty items and gifts for quilters HERE. But quilters aren’t known to be hard to please. Pick up a pretty stack of fabric or a gift card for the quilter who has everything and we guarantee they’ll be “sew” grateful!
