Shannon Fabrics Cuddle Minky Fabric at Linda's Electric Quilters
Shannon Fabrics Cuddle is the quilting industry's premier minky/plush fabric — a soft, velvety polyester pile fabric that transforms baby quilts, throws, and cuddle projects into something extraordinary. Linda's carries one of the most extensive Shannon Fabrics selections available, with over 1,500 Cuddle options spanning solids, prints, wide formats, and project kits.
Why Shannon Fabrics Cuddle?
Shannon Fabrics pioneered the use of cuddle/minky fabric in quilting and has maintained the highest standards for colour consistency, pile uniformity, and sewability. Their Cuddle 3 construction — a 3mm pile polyester — has become the industry standard for baby quilts. The fabric is machine washable, hypoallergenic, and more colourfast than many natural fibre alternatives.
