Tidings turns Christmas into a whole collection of fast, friendly projects: a feature quilt and a Merry Christmas banner quilt, a Christmas sampler stitchery, mini quilts and pillows, tea towels, a holly-and-berry table runner, cookie carriers, holiday bags, holly stake banners, and little Christmas bird ornaments. General applique and quilting instructions make the techniques easy to pick up. What the Book Includes This listing is for the printed softcover pattern book, not a kit or a finished quilt. Inside are complete cutting and assembly instructions and color photos for every project, along with general applique and quilting instructions. Fabric, batting, backing, and notions are not included. What You Can Make Tidings Quilt and Merry Christmas Banner Quilt Christmas Sampler Stitchery, mini quilts, and pillows Tidings Tea Towels and Holly and Berry Table Runner Cookie Carriers, Holiday Bags, Holly Stake Banners, and Christmas Bird Ornaments What You'll Need Projects combine simple patchwork with fusible applique and a little hand stitchery, and the book includes general applique and quilting instructions to get started. No special rulers or templates are required beyond a rotary cutter, mat, and ruler. Fabric, batting, and backing are purchased separately. Perfect For Decorating for Christmas, from the wall to the table Gift and bazaar makers who want quick holiday finishes Quilters who like a feature quilt plus lots of small projects Confident beginners comfortable with applique and stitchery Why You'll Love This Book Tidings is a one-book Christmas: a feature quilt and banner quilt to anchor a room, then a long list of small, giftable projects like ornaments, cookie carriers, and tea towels for everyone else on the list. The general applique and quilting instructions mean a newer stitcher can start with a towel and work up to the quilt. Because every project shares one cheerful holiday palette of holly, berries, and Christmas birds, the pieces look like a coordinated set whether you make one or all of them, and they store away to bring out together each December.
