Hip Holidays by Quilt Soup

Have you noticed the beautiful Christmas fabrics that are currently coming in to your local quilt stores?
Christmas will be here before we know it, and it's time to start working on projects so they will be ready in time.
I just finished making a store sample for my LQS of Hip Holidays by Quilt Soup.

Size 57" X 70"
Barbara Jones of Quilt Soup has designed the fabrics for Henry Glass and offers a free pattern, along with a tutorial on her web site.

I fell in love with these fabrics. Very bright and cheery, and they have put me in the Christmas mood working with them.

The pattern requires some paper piecing for the bows and the star. I found them easy to do. The visual tutorial really helps as they walk you through each step.

If you live here in nearby, you can find Hip Holiday at Quilted Works at 140 N. 400 West #A, St. George, UT.

    I love it Nedra! This is the second Xmas post I've read today, it's time to start thinking about gifts. I haven't seen the fabrics arrive here yet but I need to get some to make a stocking.
