Why Buy Red Fabric as Precuts?

A single-color precut takes the hardest part out of a monochrome quilt: finding enough shades of one color that actually go together. Every piece in the bundle is already matched and cut, from the lightest tint to the deepest shade, so you can plan a gradient, an ombré or a two-color quilt without a stack of yardage.

The Red Precuts You'll Find Here

Our red precuts range from bright to deep. Scarlet Stitch from Robert Kaufman is a red-and-white collection with charm packs, Ten Squares and fat quarter bundles. Kona Cotton Red Ten Squares give you a true solid red. Henry Glass's I've Got Hue, Babe Little Red Corvette bundles are tonal reds, and Woolies Flannel Holiday Warmth from Maywood Studio pairs barn red with deep green plaids and tweeds.

Which Precut Should I Choose?

  • 2.5" strips (jelly rolls, Roll Ups, Strips) – gradient strip quilts, sashing and binding.
  • 5" squares (charm packs, Stamps) – color-block patchwork and scrappy runners.
  • 10" squares (layer cakes, Ten Squares, Stacks) – half-square triangles and big modern blocks.
  • Fat quarter bundles – the most flexible cut for any pattern.

Shop every size in every color: 2.5" strips, 5" squares, 10" squares and fat quarter bundles.

Planning a Red Quilt

Red and white is a classic two-color quilt, and a red-and-white precut like Scarlet Stitch gives you both in one bundle. Red with green says Christmas, while red, white and navy is the go-to patriotic palette. Tonal red bundles make great blenders for any of these, and they work as a strong accent in a mostly neutral quilt.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are red precuts?+

Precuts are bundles of fabric cut to a standard size – 2.5" strips, 5" squares, 10" squares or fat quarters. Red precuts are bundles where red is the main color, from single-color solids to multi-shade palettes.

Will red fabric bleed?+

Deep reds can bleed. We don't recommend prewashing precuts, because small pieces fray and shrink unevenly. Instead, wash the finished quilt in cold water with a color catcher sheet or two the first few times.

What colors go with red precuts?+

White, cream and black make red pop. Green gives a holiday look, navy a patriotic one, and pink or orange a warm, modern mix.

Why do precut names change between brands?+

"Jelly roll", "charm pack" and "layer cake" started with Moda. Other manufacturers use their own names – Robert Kaufman makes Roll Ups and Ten Squares, and Island Batik makes Strips, Stamps and Stacks. The size is always on the label.
