Whoa! Theme #12 for FarmQuest General Store challenge blog is no longer accepting deliveries of crafted projects! :)
At 12:00am CT/Chicago or 6 am UK times on February 5, FQGS closed for business for challenge #12. We are excited to be having steady participation for being a new challenge blog. Please help us grow! Let your craft blogging friends know about this fun blog!
Theme #1 had 10 entries!! #2 had 27. #3 had 16 entries. #4 had 18 entries! #5 had 19 entries! #6 had 12 entries! #7 had 11 submissions! #8 had 24 entries and #9 had 26!!!...only 11 for #10, but thankful for those as most of us are busy with holidays. And here we go with 15 entries for #11! Following the Christmas-New Year holiday season, we had 14 entries for #12!
I'm loving the variety and glad our FQGS participants are embracing the broadness of rural topics we want to see! Thank you to all the wonderfully talented artisans who took time to create and deliver projects to the store!

Review:
SOMETHING NEW for 2024: QKR Stampede has been for sale (along with other companies owned by Stamp On It by Deb S) yet they will be offering images each month for the DT to use. The DT also has the option to create anything farm/country goes.
There will be a random prize winner receiving all 3 images featured each month. How fun is this and it's only available at FarmQuest General Store!

New to the FQ family of blogs:
BRAND NEW on January 2nd = FarmQuest HomeStyle Kitchen = January 2-January 31, 2024; and #2 runs from February 2-29th! FQHSKCB theme is AFG or Anything Food Goes; option theme to include a country farmhouse vibe;
allowed anything kitchen, pantry, produce market including kitchen tools, equipment, appliances, aprons, recipes, oven mitts/pot holders, berry baskets, bushel baskets, seed packets and more.
I did 5 days of sneak peeks between Christmas and New Year's that you can go back and look at too for ideas found in my stash.
