Did you know that Winterset, Iowa is a short 130-mile drive straight north on I-35 from Hamilton, Missouri–home of the Missouri Star Quilt Company? Back yard neighbors! Why do we care about this? Because Marion Robert Morrison was born there in 1907. Still not sure why we care? Well, you might know Marion better by the name John Wayne.
Although he died in 1979, John Wayne still ranks on IMDb’s list of the “Top 100 Greatest Actors of All Time.” If you are a John Wayne fan, we have John Wayne fabric for you. If you haven’t watched a John Wayne film–we are assuming that’s why you’re not yet a fan–start with True Grit; that’s the performance for which Duke won his Oscar for Best Actor. If–after Rooster Cogburn steals your heart–you are inspired to start stitching, we have John Wayne fabric panel options in addition to John Wayne fabric by the yard.
So maybe you don’t want a John Wayne quilt, but you like fabric with people on it. How about a different kind of famous? We offer Robert Kaufman fabric based on Gustav Klimt’s paintings “Portrait of Adele” and “The Kiss.” These fabric panels shimmer in gorgeous, gold metallic.
Maybe you would like people fabric featuring real-life heroes. We have fire and rescue fabric, nurse fabric, and armed forces fabric. Does your project need people themed fabric focused on women? We have lovely options. Fabric featuring men? Yep, we’ve got that. We have charming children’s choices too. We also offer whimsical fabric with people–ice skaters, beach-goers, pirates, and dirt bike riders. LOL Surprise Doll fabric, Dr. Suess, and The Simpsons are popular cartoon people picks.
If you are looking for doll patterns to sew, we offer several choices. We also carry people quilt patterns that may tickle your fancy and your sense of humor.
No matter if you are searching for larger-than-life person fabric featuring John Wayne or fabric depicting ordinary folks out for a winter walk, check out our selection at Missouri Star.
