Religious fabric typically features designs, motifs, or symbols associated with various religions or spiritual beliefs. These inspirational fabrics are often used in quilting to create projects with a specific religious or spiritual theme. Common elements found on religious fabrics may include symbols, prayers, scriptures, religious icons, or images associated with different faiths.
Here, you will find inspirational fabric by the yard, panels, and even quilt kits that feature crosses, angels, religious texts, and more. Mandalas and other symbols from different belief systems will also appear here as collections become available.
Quilters may use religious and spiritual fabrics to create items like prayer quilts, wall hangings, or other pieces that hold deep personal or communal significance. When working with religious fabrics, it's important to be respectful of the symbols and meanings associated with different religious traditions, ensuring that the final quilt reflects the intended message and sentiment.
Quilters also love celebrating their favorite religious holidays with handmade creations like pillows, table runners, and wall hangings. Each year, you’ll find religious quilt kits to celebrate two of the biggest holidays for Christians, Christmas and Easter.

Many of these religious fabric panels can be used as the center focal point of a larger quilt project or could be cut apart and used in a smaller project such as a pillow or table topper.
