About Us


The Fabric Patch is a locally owned and operated quilting store in Pana, IL. We have been providing quilting services and supplies throughout our community since 2011. Our goal is for every customer to be completely satisfied with their purchase. We do this by providing exceptional customer service and quality quilting supplies in Pana.

Owners, Brenda and Mike Gelsinger opened the doors to The Fabric Patch in September, 2011. They love being a part of the Pana Community, with over 30 years of marriage, raising their family and participating in many local events. As a long time quilter, Brenda was always piecing quilt tops because she never had a long arm machine. She identified the need for a local supplier of quilting services and quilting machines in Pana and the surrounding area. Soon after, The Fabric Patch opened its doors.
