Collection: Children's Fabric
At Fabrics Galore we love our range of children's fabric from wonderful children's dressmaking fabrics to fabulous children's furnishing fabrics for boys' and girls' bedrooms and kids' quilting fabrics too! Not forgetting baby fabrics. Whatever you are making for (or with) the kids, check out all the fun kids' fabrics online.
Children's Fabric - what to look for
While kids' fabric should always be fun, it should also be high quality and if possible look for natural fabrics like cotton. At Fabrics Galore we try wherever possible to source children's cotton and jersey which meets the OEKO-TEX 100 standard for textiles which means it has been manufactured free from harmful chemicals so you know it will be 100% safe next to the skin. Look also for organic cotton and GOTS certified cotton. Some synthetic fibres are excellent for children's wear such as fleece fabric which is warm, cosy, light-weight and washes well.
Create the perfect children's clothes
Within our dressmaking children's collection you will find an abundance of diverse fun designs whether you are looking for children's cotton, children's jersey fabric or novelty cotton prints. Choose from our children's fabric range to make super cute T-shirts, sweatshirts, leggings, jackets or pyjamas.
Wonderful children's fabric for bedrooms
Choose from our wonderful nursery or children's bedroom fabrics. We have superhero themed fabrics all the way to zoo animal prints, you name it, Fabrics Galore is sure to have it. Furthermore, all materials within our children’s collection are made with high quality textiles, making them an ideal choice for creating home furnishing gifts for your children or grandchildren!
Perfect Baby Fabrics
At Fabrics Galore we offer a range of soft organic cottons, many of which meet the OEKO-TEX 100 standard for textiles so that you can be sure the fabrics are 100% safe next to your baby's skin. In soft fabrics such as double gauze and with the cutest designs including many animal prints, our baby fabrics are perfect for your newborn little ones.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you sell by the metre?
We sell by the half metre on our website (the price is therefore displayed by the half metre) to allow our customers more flexibility. If you wish to buy a metre, you need to buy two units, but don’t worry, it will always be cut in one continuous length.
Can I pay for next day delivery?
We can send your fabric by courier which should arrive the next day, for the additional cost of £12. The simplest way to do this is by sending us an email howdy@fabricsgalore.co.uk or by calling the shop on 0207 738 9589. We would need to know before 1pm, and we are unable to organise a Saturday delivery.
Can I buy your fabrics if I live outside the UK?
Yes, we ship to Europe. For all the details, see our Shipping Page.
Do you send out samples?
We do, our samples are 10 cm by the width of the fabric (usually 112cm or 137cm) and cost 10% of the fabric’s metre price plus £1.50 for postage. Simply go to our Request a Swatch page.
Is there an actual shop I can visit?
Yes, we have a shop in South London. All the fabrics, which are available online (and more) are in the shop alongside a small haberdashery and pattern range.
The address is 52-54 Lavender Hill, Battersea, London, SW11 5RH.
Is it possible to get a wholesale price?
We are a fabric retailer rather than a wholesaler so the short answer is no, but if you are looking for a large quantity of fabric, it is best to email us on howdy@fabricsgalore.co.uk to see if we can help you out.
What does OEKO-TEX 100 mean?
OEKO-TEX 100 means the fabric has been tested for 100 harmful substances. The testing and certification process extends far beyond existing legal requirements, testing not only for substances already banned, but also for chemicals known to be unsafe, but not yet controlled by legislation. Fabrics which meet OEKO-TEX 100 are great for children’s clothing or underwear.
How quickly will I get my order?
All our orders are sent out by Royal Mail First Class so should be with you within a few days of fulfilment and often within 1-2 days. We send fabric out on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday. During busy periods such as sales, deliveries may take slightly longer, and we are always grateful for your patience.
Where do your fabrics come from?
We stock British fabrics as well as fabrics from suppliers all over the world - including Germany, Italy, Taiwan and India.
Will you be at any shows this year?
In recent years we have cut back on the number of shows we attend but we do still go to several. For the full list have a look on our Events Page.
Can I order a specific fabric from a supplier which you stock but isn’t on your website?
We select our fabrics from various ranges to create the interesting collections we offer and it’s rare that we buy the whole range. If you have a specific fabric you are looking for, it’s best to email us to find out if we can help you. Our email address is howdy@fabricsgalore.co.uk
When will out of stock fabrics be available again?
When we sell out of a popular fabric such as our cream bouclé, we will try very hard to get it back in quickly. As soon as it arrives, it will go straight back on our website, and we will notify our customers via social media or our weekly newsletter. If you wanted to sign up so you never miss a thing, subscribe on our simple sign up form
Do you offer gift cards?
Yes, we do have a few different types: you can buy a voucher for Free Postage for a Whole Year gift card. Or you can buy vouchers for £10, £25, £50 or £100 which will be emailed over to you immediately, in case it’s a last-minute gift. See our gift voucher page.
What does GSM mean?
GSM stands for grams per square metre; the higher the number, the thicker and heavier the fabric will be. For example, a denim or a sweatshirt fabric will have a much higher GSM than a satin.
