What is a Fat Quarter?
At Fabric Rehab we supply our fabric in Fat Quarters (FQ), this is a quarter of a yard and gives you a piece of fabric measuring approx 54cm wide x 45cm long (some fabrics vary in width, details of which will be given on the fabric description page). For multiple FQ purchases of the same design, you will receive one uncut piece of fabric if you purchase an even amount of FQs. Should you purchase an odd number of FQs you will recieve one continuous piece plus 1 FQ. The table below will help illustrate this:-
1 FQ purchased - 54cm wide x 45cm long
2 FQ purchased - 108cm wide x 45cm long
3 FQ purchased - 108cm wide x 45cm long, plus 1FQ 54cm wide x 45cm long
4 FQ purchased - 108cm wide x 91cm long
5 FQ purchased - 108cm wide x 91cm long, plus 1FQ, 54cm wide x 45cm long
