What is Barnyard Quilting?

Updated

Barnyard Quilting is a quilt shop in Fairlee, Vermont, with an online storefront at barnyardquilting.com. It sells 100% cotton fabrics — including 108-inch-wide backing fabric — along with pre-cuts, quilt kits, and finished quilted goods, and it also runs classes, retreats, and events. The site is the place to check if you want to buy quilting supplies from a Vermont shop or sign up for its in-person programming.

What the shop offers

Based on the site's navigation and description, the product range covers:

  • 100% cotton fabric, including 108-inch-wide fabric (a common width for quilt backing, since it reduces or eliminates piecing)
  • Pre-cuts — fabric bundles cut to standard quilting sizes
  • Quilt kits — bundled project supplies
  • Thread catchers — small sewing-room accessories
  • Dream boards — listed as a shop category
  • Quilted tote bags
  • Quilts — finished, quilted pieces

The site also lists a Sales section, so discounted items are part of the offering.

Classes, retreats, and events

Beyond retail, Barnyard Quilting presents itself as a gathering place for quilters:

  • Classes and Retreats — its own page in the main menu
  • Events — a separate section for scheduled happenings
  • Calendar — a month-by-month view of what's coming up
  • VT Shop Hop — Vermont's multi-shop quilting event, with its own page and a login

If you're planning a trip or want to learn a technique, the Calendar and Events pages are where the specific dates and details would live.

Practical pages worth knowing

Two menu items are specific to the quilting workflow rather than shopping:

  • Quilt Preparation — guidance on getting a quilt ready (typically for longarm quilting or finishing)
  • Shop Online — the entry point to the e-commerce side, organized into the categories above

There's also a Newsletter Signup on the homepage, which asks for an email address and a repeat of that address — the usual way to hear about new fabric, sales, and class schedules.

Who it's for

This site is aimed at quilters rather than general crafters:

  • If you need wide backing fabric or pre-cuts for a specific project, the shop categories are the starting point.
  • If you want instruction or a retreat, go to Classes and Retreats, then check the Calendar for dates.
  • If you're participating in the VT Shop Hop, the dedicated page and login are there for that purpose.
