Merry Makers compiled by Lissa Alexander from Martingale

Start with the winter season, sprinkle in some holiday hues, add a smidgen of gift giving, and what do you get? The Merry Makers--also known as the Moda All-Stars! This best-selling series returns to celebrate Christmas with 15+ quick handmade gifts to give or keep. Choose from speedy stockings, pincushions, and coasters to make in multiples, or pick a patchwork project--lap quilts, table runners, and other deck-the-halls designs abound. Most projects can be completed in a weekend or quicker, so there’s no need to fear the Christmas time crunch. The All-Stars share their holiday traditions in a series of Q & As too, so quilters will find inspiration in more ways than one. Royalties from the sale of this book will be donated to the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation. 96 pages
