Mary, Marie, Phillies Eagles Craft and J&O Fabrics.

At J&O Fabrics, we are constantly meeting customers much like yourself, who have tapped into their fabulous inner wells of creativity and manifested their unique imaginings into beautiful works of art. From cute and lovable cloth dolls made and sold mostly at craft festivals, to intricate hand-made bags made and purchased by high society elites, our customers are some of the best originators and designers around.


For instance, take Mary and Marie, better known by the staff at J&O Fabrics as simply M & M. These two lively and lovely 'seasoned' women have been tapping into their creative feminine juices for many years now, and have no intention of stopping. Creating cute and fun crafts as a way of nurturing their Goddess given talents and fulfilling their philanthropic side is what feeds their spirit. And of course our selection of diverse and funky fabrics found within the walls of our brick and mortar might have a little something to do with their source of inspiration as well. Novelty prints, calico, African fabrics....each visit they make is fun for us all, and the little craft gifts they leave behind are cherished memoirs that leave smiles on our faces for days to come.


M & M's latest gift, a crochet Philadelphia Eagles Piggy Bank that we've affectionately named Marty. And isn't he just m-a-r-v-o-l-o-u-s! Complete with Authentic Eagles logo's on his green shirt and hat, Marty is the perfect craft for your BIG or little Eagle's fan. I am sure Mary and Marie could fill his body to the brim with all the money they saved by purchasing their material at J&O Fabrics and utilizing their craftiness to bring this cute and durable Philadelphia Eagles Piggy Bank to life!

Although the Big Twelve Conference was officially created in 1994, its roots go back much further to 1907, the year in which the Big Eight Conference was formed. After many schools came and went, the Big Eight reached its final form in 1958: Colorado, Iowa State, Kansas, Kansas State, Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma and Oklahoma State.

In 1994, the Big Eight Conference merged with four Texas schools from the defunct Southwest Conference to form the Big Twelve.


The Big Twelve:

North:

Colorado Buffaloes

Iowa State Cyclones

Kansas Jayhawks

Kansas State Wildcats

Missouri Tigers

Nebraska Cornhuskers


South:

Baylor Bears

Oklahoma Sooners

Oklahoma State Cowboys

Texas Longhorns

Texas A & M Aggies

Texas Tech Raiders


Big Twelve schools hold 187 national titles in team sports, including 18 in football, 49 in wrestling and 10 in baseball.

College Team Fabric: Big Ten Fabric

The Big Ten is the oldest collegiate athletics conference in the country. Founded in 1896 and first known as the Intercollegiate Conference of Faculty Representatives, it originally consisted of seven schools. In 1899 Indiana joined and the conference was first referred to as the Big Nine. Then, in 1917 Michigan rejoined the conference after a nine year absence and the first references were made to the Big Ten.

In 1946, the University of Chicago withdrew from the conference, which was once again known as the Big Nine. However, in 1950 Michigan State joined and the conference reverted to the name by which it has been known ever since: The Big Ten.

Interestingly enough, during all of these changes the conference was still officially named the Intercollegiate Conference of Faculty Representatives. It wasn't until 1987 that the name Big Ten was formally adopted. This name remained even after Penn State joined the conference in 1990.

The Big Ten teams are:


  1. Illinois Fighting Illini
  2. Indiana Hoosiers
  3. Iowa Hawkeyes
  4. Michigan Wolverines
  5. Michigan State Spartans
  6. Minnesota Golden Gophers
  7. Northwestern Wildcats
  8. Ohio State Buckeyes
  9. Pennsylvania State (Penn St.) Nittany Lions
  10. Purdue Boilermakers
  11. Wisconsin Badgers

The Big Ten owns 187 national championships in team sports and 1, 089 championships in individual competitions. Of the 187 national championships in team sports, 6 have been in baseball, 10 in basketball and 52 in football.

Now you can bring the Big Ten's tradition of athletic excellence to your home with J & O's college team prints.
