Lightweight cotton wideback fabrics (108\" wide) are especially popular because they eliminate the need for a center seam on quilt backings. For baby quilts and snuggle blankets, Shannon Cuddle minky offers a soft, plush alternative that's still light enough for warmer months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat width are the wideback fabrics?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost of our cotton wideback fabrics are \u003cstrong\u003e108\" wide\u003c\/strong\u003e, with some available at \u003cstrong\u003e118\"\u003c\/strong\u003e or \u003cstrong\u003e120\"\u003c\/strong\u003e. The Shannon Cuddle extra-wide solids are \u003cstrong\u003e88\/90\" wide\u003c\/strong\u003e, and the Shannon Digital Cuddle prints are \u003cstrong\u003e58\"–60\" wide\u003c\/strong\u003e. All are sold by the yard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDo I need to pre-wash these fabrics?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePre-washing is always a personal preference. Most quilters pre-wash cotton fabrics to remove sizing and prevent shrinkage, especially if the finished quilt will be washed frequently. Cuddle minky fabrics should generally not be pre-washed — they're best washed after the project is complete.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich fabrics work best for quilt backings?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur 108\" cotton wideback fabrics are specifically designed for quilt backings — one yard covers a standard throw-size quilt without any piecing. Moda Grunge Basics, Flow, Thatched, and Stonehenge widefabrics are especially popular backing choices thanks to their soft hand and large variety of colors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat are Moda Grunge Basics?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eModa Grunge Basics are a beloved line of \u003cstrong\u003e100% cotton blender fabrics\u003c\/strong\u003e designed by BasicGrey. The subtle, textured \"grunge\" pattern works beautifully as a background or blender in any quilt. Available in both 44\/45\" and 108\" widths, they come in dozens of colors — including an extensive range of summer shades like turquoise, aqua, seafoam, mint, peach, orange, coral, lavender, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is Shannon Cuddle fabric?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShannon Cuddle is a \u003cstrong\u003epremium polyester minky plush fabric\u003c\/strong\u003e made by Shannon Fabrics. It's known for its incredibly soft, velvety texture — perfect for baby quilts, blankets, stuffed animals, and cuddle quilts. The extra-wide Cuddle 3 (88\/90\") is the same fabric used in many quilt kits here at Linda's. The Digital Cuddle line features printed designs on that same luxurious base fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use these fabrics for apparel?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes! Many fabrics in this collection work beautifully for summer apparel — especially the lighter-weight cotton wovens, the Cuddle minky for cozy knit-style garments, and the floral and tropical prints. Check individual product listings for fiber content and care instructions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow much fabric do I need for a quilt backing?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor a standard throw quilt (approximately 60\" x 80\"), you'll typically need about 2–2.5 yards of a 108\" wideback fabric. For a twin, 3–3.5 yards; for a queen, 3.5–4 yards. Our product pages include estimated yardage guidance to help you plan your project.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eNew fabrics are added regularly.
