What's a fat quarter? Fabric that needs a diet? Above is 1/4 yard of fabric, unfolded. So here you see a piece of fabric that is 9" by the width of the fabric, (WOF) So you would end up with a piece of material 9"x45" -that's 1/4 yard of fabric, long, skinny and rectangular.
And here a picture of a fat quarter. and it measures 18" by 22 1/2" You can see that depending what you were making you would prefer the one piece to the other, just because of how the piece of material is shaped. A fat quarter is more square looking, so there you have it, and now you know the difference between the two.
