What's New

New fabric is arriving weekly. 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.

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.

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.

As you can tell, life is busy at Farmer's Country Store. Stop by and give us a visit.

Flannel Fabric

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.

New Christmas and Halloween fabric

Yes quilters, the Christmas and Halloween '07 fabric is arriving daily. Yesterday I unpacked a beautiful collection from the designer Anna Griffin. Anna is known for her scrapbook paper designs. She's put her designs on fabric. Her new Christmas collection "Grace Christmas" is a beautiful vintage collection featuring Victorian Christmas trees, Santas, and more. I've sent the list to our web hostess, "Hattie's Workshop". She should have this collection up in a week or two.

We already have many of the new 2007 Fall and Christmas collections posted on our web page. We have "Snow Village" from Moda that is a winter toille. We have "Let it Snow" designed by Ohio's Deb Strain. This collection has a panel along with coordinates. Look for these fabrics under the "Moda" listing.

Benartex has a beautiful Christmas Nativity panel and coordinates for 2007. This can be seen on our "Other" fabric list.

Thimbleberries has a new collection called "Christmas Street". I ordered the patterns for this collection and they should arrive soon.
