Animal Prints by the Yard for Quilts and Backings
Every fabric on this page is yardage, cut to the length you order, so you can pick exactly the critter print you want for a border, a backing or a whole quilt. You will find realistic and cartoon cats and dogs, songbirds, bees and honeycombs, butterflies and dragonflies, chickens and farm animals, and Tula Pink's fanciful creatures, plus soft flannel animal prints for baby quilts.
Pairing a Big Animal Print
A bold "picture" print looks best with room to breathe. Use it in large blocks, a wide border or the quilt back, and pair it with a small-scale blender or a near-solid such as Tula Pink's Fairy Dust so the animals stay the star.
Animal Prints for Quilt Backs
Our 108" wide backings, like Packed Cats, let you back a whole quilt in one piece with no seams. Shop all wide quilt backing.

Animal Fabric FAQ
Do you have cat fabric for a quilt back?
Yes. 108" Quilt Back Packed Cats is one of our best-selling backings, and reviewers use it to back cat quilts in one seamless piece. Smaller cat prints by the yard work well for borders and blocks.
What background goes with Tula Pink animal prints?
Customers often choose Tula Pink's Fairy Dust in White as a background for Tula quilts. Its soft sparkle reads as a light near-solid, so the animal prints stand out.
Do you have butterfly, bee and insect prints?
Yes. Look for bees and honeycomb prints, butterflies, dragonflies and garden bugs. They pair nicely with floral fabric by the yard.
