Celebrate Christmas with Make Merry Fabrics

Make Merry by Cath Kidston captures the magic of Christmas in a charming storybook-style collection filled with nostalgic holiday scenes. Santa and his cheerful helpers make their way through a festive town filled with decorated homes, Christmas trees, snowmen, birds, gifts, stars, and playful seasonal details.

Cheerful shades of red, pink, seafoam, mist, alpine, and ivory give these Christmas fabrics a distinctive Cath Kidston look that's both nostalgic and fresh. Mix the feature prints with coordinating dots, sprigs, stars, and smaller-scale designs for Christmas quilts, stockings, tree skirts, table runners, pillows, wall hangings, and handmade gifts.

Make Merry Precuts & Fabric Bundles

Make Merry is available in several popular precut formats, including a 40-piece 2½" Rolie Polie, 42-piece 5" Stacker, 42-piece 10" Stacker, and 24-piece Fat Quarter Bundle. Coordinating one-yard bundles are also available in Ivory, Mist, and Seafoam.

Pair the Rolie Polie with jelly-roll-friendly patterns, the 5" Stacker with charm-pack-friendly patterns, and the 10" Stacker with layer-cake-friendly patterns. The Fat Quarter Bundle offers even more flexibility for patchwork and fat-quarter-friendly patterns.

Make Merry Christmas Panel & Wide Backing

The Make Merry Panel features a delightful Christmas scene with Santa and his reindeer delivering gifts throughout a festive community. Measuring approximately 35½" × 43½", the panel can become the focal point of a Christmas quilt, wall hanging, or other holiday project.

To finish your quilt, Make Merry also includes coordinating 107"/108" wide quilt backing in Red Dot and Multi Dot. Wide backing makes it possible to finish many larger quilts without piecing together multiple lengths of standard-width fabric.
