Mini, Medium, Big -- what’s the difference in Tangerine bundle sizes? We want to make sure you get exactly what you need in your bundle, so we put together a quick guide to what’s in our bundles and what you can make with each.
Our favorite way to buy fabric is to get just what we need for the specific piece we want to make. Sometimes we’re swayed by a beautiful fabric or a great sale and buy on impulse, but we find we’re most successful and happiest when we have just the right fabric for the item we’re making.
That’s one reason we only offer a limited selection of bundles at Tangerine. We hope you’re thinking of the beautiful dress or cardigan or newborn set you want to make, then come to Tangerine to find just the right adorable set of fabrics.
The Mini Bundle
Our smallest bundle size, the Mini is great for separates like t-shirts, sweatshirts, leggings and dresses in sizes up to 12 months, and some patterns for toddlers. This bundle contains a fat ½ yard of a main fabric and fat ⅛ yards of each of 2 coordinating fabrics.
Here are some of our favorite patterns for the Mini Bundle:

The Big Bundle
This is our largest size in terms of the main fabric yardage, and contains enough fabric to make kids clothing up to 5-6T or many patterns in adult sizes. The Big Bundle comes with 2 yards of the main fabric and ½ yard each of the coordinating fabrics, which means you’d be able to make any of the patterns recommended for the Mini Bundle in those fun coordinating fabrics, and multiples of any of the patterns listed above.
Pattern ideas best for the Big Bundle include:
- Peek-a-Boo Pattern Shop High Five Hoodie, up to size 6T (lined or unlined)

The Full Capsule
