KNITS
Our wide selection of knit fabrics is perfect for a myriad of garments! AGF knits are great for projects that require a little stretch such as basic tees, tank tops, dresses, and leggings. Our knit fabrics have a four way stretch, are incredibly comfortable, and are soft like no other. You can successfully sew with them on your home sewing machine (no serger needed) and if you’re a beginner the fabric is very “forgiving.” Enjoy all the beautiful prints and colors that are available in our range of knit fabrics. We assure you’ll want to wear whatever you make all day long!

“I am Maureen. A stay-at-home mother of three, a lover of all things crafty and creative, and I make things by hand, at home in small town Pennsylvania.”
Maureen Cracknell lives in small town Potter Country, Pennsylvania. She is a mother, wife, blogger, quilter, and lover of all things creative and handmade.
Just a little over four years ago she started sewing and blogging at Maureen Cracknell Handmade; a simple, positive, and creative blog where she loves to share her projects, fabric stashes, sewing, and special family moments.
Two years into blogging, she opened a Facebook page with intentions to share and connect with people who, like her, live with a passion to sew and quilt—most of who follow her blog, which has been supported and grown to over eighty thousand followers. These supporters continually give her encouragement and the opportunity to follow her path of creating and sharing.
She’s been a proud member of several fabric manufacturer design teams throughout the years, including Art Gallery Fabric’s popular Fat Quarter Gang, and continues to work as an Independent Designer for Janome Sewing Machines. She is incredibly grateful for each of the opportunities that have led her where to where she is today!
