Cotton Calico Fabric

Create quality quilts and home decor with cotton calico fabric from Hobby Lobby! Calico is a plain-weave, 100% cotton fabric with a slightly coarse texture. It is typically undyed and unbleached, making it highly affordable.

Because of its plain weave and affordability, calico is a good quilt fabric for both beginner and advanced quilters. Since it typically isn’t bleached or dyed, it is also ideal for dying, painting, or otherwise embellishing.

Calico fabric is a versatile material commonly used for quilting, crafting, and home decor. It is also a popular fabric for creating garment mock-ups, called toiles.

Traditional calico fabric features small repeating patterns, typically floral, geometric, or classic designs, like stripes and plaid. Plaid fabric is especially good for creating a rustic or down-home looking piece. Create a stunning summer dress using floral fabric featuring bright colors, like pink, white, and yellow.

We also carry more modern designs. Find printed fabric featuring bible verses, adorable gnomes, and iconic characters, like Winnie the Pooh. Calico quilting fabric decorated with softballs or footballs is the perfect material for making a gameday blanket. Use fabric adorned with colorful dinosaurs or jungle animals to make a cute blankie for your little one.
