Halloween Special Offer 10% discount until 31st October 2011 Promotion Code MHALLOWEEN31

Welcome! We are a patchwork and quilting supplies shop based in Blackhall Mill (about 8 miles outside of Newcastle). Originally established in August 2005 we provide a wide range of quilting and patchwork related goods and services.

We have been attracting enthusiastic quilters from most parts of the North East Region where this craft has a long history. For example, Beamish Museum has a very famous collection.

As well as selling supplies of fabrics, thread and accessories, The Fat Quarters also offer lessons, help and advice. In addition we sell speciality books, patterns and magazines.

Please feel free to browse our website, where you will find a large number of products on offer all stocked at our shop.

Thankyou and Enjoy!
