Buy Easter Quilting Fabrics

Do you have bunnies on your mind? Easter bunnies in particular? If you are a quilter, you probably start planning for your holidays about six months in advance. Therefore, if it is late September or October now, you might be thinking more about Easter than you are Halloween.

The good news is that Missouri Star has a nice selection of Easter fabric on hand year-round. But here is an interesting question to ponder, what characteristics make a fabric an Easter fabric?

Because Easter celebrates resurrection and it happens during the spring, we often use cultural symbols of new life and winter changing to spring to represent Easter. Butterflies are a powerful symbol of resurrection. Baby animals like bunnies and chicks are popular Easter fabric motifs–as are eggs (disregarding the fact that we hard boil them!). And, of course, spring is filled with flowers that spring out of the seemingly dead earth after winter.

You will find Easter fabric prints with all of these symbols at Missouri Star, but don’t be afraid to search beyond this page. For example, you might check out our selection of butterflies fabric to turn up some interesting Easter quilting fabric options.

Another way to shop for Easter fabric by the yard and Easter fabric panels beyond those on this page is to search for floral fabrics. Looking this way, you will find a collection called Among the Branches by Susan Winget for Wilmington Prints. These would be beautiful fabrics for an Easter project. The prints feature butterflies, songbirds, lush greenery, and florals. The fabrics in this collection are available as precuts and yardage. There is a gorgeous panel, a border print, and many coordinating print patterns. Among the Branches is just one example of a floral fabric collection that would work well in Easter fabric projects.
