I got it from a local quilt store. I don't remember the manufactorer but the name is Holiday in Paris I believe. It is the prettiest 'christmas' fabric that isn't blatently Christmasy I've found. This project concluded the very last of my scraps of this (except 2 6" squares that went in my 'someday' quilt basket).

Thanks mamas, this really is a fun and fast project- enjoy!

The Eifel tower fabric is from In the Beginning.

I sewed up one of these this morning, and it went together super easy. Great instructions and photos. I really like these projects that only take a few minutes, I can actually finish these and feel like I have accomplished something. Thanks for your efforts and time

Thank You

I'm finding that I can use up each fat quarter of fabric I haven't used yet to make coordinating headband and small dream pillow (filled with rice or flax seeds and lavender flowers) set.

I'm endebted

Again Thanks

I hate doing these so much now I couldn't even imagine cutting for one, or mulitiples in different fabrics. lol.. so basically, I never make singles... Here's the cutting adaptation for multiples....

cut a strip 6" wide and the full 45" width of the fabric, then do a 2 1/2" strip the same way. Sew them and turn them, cut the wide one in thirds and the narrow one in forths, and you now have enough for three, plus a spare elastic casing. (since I really do multiples, I cut four wide strips and three narrow so I come out even an even dozen, lol)

Remember, multiples are great for pinatas and party bags.
