Norma created a cute little quilt. It has been a good seller and she has created a kit.

Patty will be teaching a paper piecing class on Thursday, February 4, at 5:30 p.m. The cost for the class is $25. Supplies needed are 1/4 yd. dark blue or marbles for the snowflake, 1/4-1/2 yd blue contrast for the border. With Patty's guidance, students should be able to continue paper piecing more snowflakes at home.

The Christmas fabrics are being shipped. From Moda, we just received the "Holly Jolly Snowmen" collection. It will be posted on our web site soon.<br /><br />In the shop, look for the red, white & blue tea-dyed buntings. Last year these sold out quickly. We have several patriotic fabric collections great for that summer project. We have a new primitive artist selling her one of a kind originals exclusively with our shop. If you like the extreme primitive crafts, you'll appreciate Vickie's work.<br /><br />Patty hung a porch swing up front to make a nice display area. Fresh chocolate just arrived from Coblentz Chocolate. Coblentz is from Walnut Creek in the Amish country. We had 8 ladies attend the sweatshirt jacket class yesterday. Shirley is giving her apron talk to another ladies' group. She's probably lost track on how many times she's given this talk.<br /><br />As you can tell, life is busy at Farmer's Country Store. Stop by and give us a visit.<div class="blogger-post-footer">All Rights Reserved © 2005 Farmer's Country Store</div>Farmer's Country Storehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04563088509195047095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15585584.post-28769907441337085772009-04-15T08:38:00.006-05:002009-12-31T16:45:12.952-05:00The Queen and Her Court Quilt<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_TL8cmqrvzrU/SeXlBnJOM_I/AAAAAAAAADg/gkxqxKP5g9w/s1600-h/The+Queen+and+Her+Court.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 267px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_TL8cmqrvzrU/SeXlBnJOM_I/AAAAAAAAADg/gkxqxKP5g9w/s400/The+Queen+and+Her+Court.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5324913950285771762" /></a><br />We just received a beautiful fabric collection from "Quilting Treasures" called "Marie Antoinette". The designer "Wing and a Prayer Design" has created a beautiful quilt for Block-of-the-Month programs. At Farmer's, we have cut the fabric for the entire quilt. You can work on your quilt as you like throughout the year or complete the kit according to your personal schedule.<br /><br />The kit price is $168 for this queen size quilt. Check our website, www.farmerscountrystore.com, under "Kits" and also "Misc. Fabrics" buttons to view the "Marie Antoinette" fabric and the kit.<br /><br />As always, we accept phone orders or stop by.

Shirley and Margo had a great time and enjoyed visiting with all the quilters in the area. The most popular kit was the flannel Santa kit and panels from Northcott. We've reordered a bolt of each of the new panels and have the quilt samples made.<div class="blogger-post-footer">All Rights Reserved © 2005 Farmer's Country Store</div>Farmer's Country Storehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04563088509195047095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15585584.post-53235557627300679332008-06-19T13:54:00.004-05:002008-06-19T14:05:48.539-05:00Sitting Pretty Quilt<a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_TL8cmqrvzrU/SFqsvhKsy2I/AAAAAAAAABM/nOqKKb4Qln0/s1600-h/Sitting+Pretty+quilt.JPG"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_TL8cmqrvzrU/SFqsvhKsy2I/AAAAAAAAABM/nOqKKb4Qln0/s200/Sitting+Pretty+quilt.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5213669450991848290" /></a><br />Where does time go. It's been so long since I've let everyone know what's new at Farmer's Country Store. Christmas and Fall fabric lines are shipping and the girls are busy making samples using the new lines. I liked the quilt pattern "Sitting Pretty" so much, I ordered it two times. The pattern cover used fabric from the 30's. I selected fabrics from my pastel stash. Gives the pattern a whole different look. If you are quilter, we have plenty of patterns. The finished quilt as shown is available for $98.00. <br /><br />Sorry about my sideways picture. I am still looking for the rotate picture button.<br /><br />Happy sewing and hope you stop by Farmer's Country Store located in Lancaster, Ohio.<div class="blogger-post-footer">All Rights Reserved © 2005 Farmer's Country Store</div>Farmer's Country Storehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04563088509195047095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15585584.post-55976068400879280422008-05-16T07:59:00.002-05:002008-05-16T08:05:51.380-05:00Flannel Fabric<a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_TL8cmqrvzrU/SC2GTQlPJuI/AAAAAAAAAA0/5COM7dhRf1A/s1600-h/flannel+fabric.JPG"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_TL8cmqrvzrU/SC2GTQlPJuI/AAAAAAAAAA0/5COM7dhRf1A/s200/flannel+fabric.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5200960810109576930" /></a><br />If you're starting a flannel quilt for this coming winter, let us help. We are known for our flannel. We had a group of ladies attending a class in one of the large quilt shops in Columbus come here for their flannel. We carry the Moda brushed homespun flannel, Thimbleberries flannel, Northcott, along with other flannels. Many are not shown on our website. If you need a specific color or print type, I have taken a close-up picture and e-mailed to several quilters. This photo is about 1/4 of the flannels we have available.<div class="blogger-post-footer">All Rights Reserved © 2005 Farmer's Country Store</div>Farmer's Country Storehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04563088509195047095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15585584.post-62322377345970447822008-05-16T07:48:00.003-05:002008-05-16T07:59:23.310-05:00Vintage Quilts<a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_TL8cmqrvzrU/SC2EhglPJtI/AAAAAAAAAAs/hD-zdsUXAQE/s1600-h/Patty%27s+Windham+fabric+quilt.JPG"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_TL8cmqrvzrU/SC2EhglPJtI/AAAAAAAAAAs/hD-zdsUXAQE/s320/Patty%27s+Windham+fabric+quilt.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5200958855899457234" /></a><br />We are located in Lancaster, Ohio, home of General Sherman. The local historical society has restored his home and feature several historical events throughout the year. It is only fitting that here at Farmer's we have started purchasing more of the Civil War and historical prints thanks to companies like Windham and Marcus Brothers. Patty created a quick and easy quilt from the "Old Glory" collection by Windham. It is a circa 1850 fabric. Patty loves creating quilts with the vintage/civil war fabric. Patty created a quilt at Christmas time using some fabrics that were not selling very well and used them in a unique way that the fabric and kits flew out of the shop along with her quilt.<div class="blogger-post-footer">All Rights Reserved © 2005 Farmer's Country Store</div>Farmer's Country Storehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04563088509195047095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15585584.post-40511867922913310122008-03-13T10:26:00.003-05:002008-03-13T10:33:20.730-05:00Webkinz CrazeYep, we still have Webkinz.

The book is entitled "Be Attitudes" The fusible applique quilt which reminds us of uplifting attitudes and values that can make our lives more enjoyable and beautiful. Norma has taken the teadious work of selecting so many fabrics for one quilt. Each month's block is well labeled and ready to fuse the applique and stitch by machine or hand using the blanket stitch. The kit may be purchased monthly or all twelve blocks, including the book, for $120.00. The book cover shows four narrow borders. These are optional. Cheri has purchased the kits. She's only using one small border and is hanging it over a bed in the grandkid's room. <br /><br />If Norma receives four students, she will offer a monthly class. The quilt is on our opening page of www.farmerscountrystore.com.<div class="blogger-post-footer">All Rights Reserved © 2005 Farmer's Country Store</div>Farmer's Country Storehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04563088509195047095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15585584.post-75592537237800819382008-01-05T10:46:00.000-05:002008-01-05T10:49:41.516-05:00Beginner Quilting classCheri, our hand quilting expert, will be starting her hand quilting class next month.
