Farmyard - Down On The Farm - by Susan Wheeler - The Craft Cotton Company

There's an easy, timeless charm to a farmyard scene, and Susan Wheeler captures it beautifully in Farmyard for The Craft Cotton Company. Piglets, ducks and chicks wander across the fabric alongside pretty florals, creating a design that's every bit as sweet for a baby quilt as it is for a grown-up's countryside-themed project.

Susan's illustrative style has a real warmth to it, striking that balance between charming and characterful without ever tipping into overly cutesy. The collection works beautifully as a set, with each print designed to coordinate easily, so building a full farmyard scene across a project feels effortless.

Printed on 100% organic cotton, this fabric handles well under the needle, giving a genuinely reliable finish whether you're piecing, quilting, or making up a garment.

A few places this fabric loves to land:

• Baby quilts and nursery accessories
• Children's clothing and accessories
• Cushion covers and light curtains
• Tote bags, pouches and craft accessories
• Light upholstery projects (when backed appropriately)

Whether you're stitching a first quilt for a farmyard-loving little one or simply want a touch of countryside charm in your fabric stash, Farmyard brings genuine warmth to whatever it's made into.
