2019 Jolly Box from Fat Quarter Shop

Every year the Fat Quarter Shop does a few special holiday boxes. The Christmas-themed box is called the Jolly Box. As someone who loves both FQS and Christmas, I’ve been stalking my email inbox and Kimberly’s Stitch Squad on Facebook for the first notification of the Jolly Box. It popped up last week and I placed my order immediately. The whisk on the box image made me even more excited to see what was going to be coming given my love of baking. Well, the package came today and I’m so excited!

I eagerly sliced open the tape so I could get inside and check out this year’s surprise and was thrilled with the collection of treasures that I found.

Here’s what was inside:
A bundle of seven fat quarters from Kimberbell’s We Whisk You a Merry Christmas line, which I think is just adorable. (I actually purchased a project bag for my cross stitch in this fabric a few weeks ago!)
A Wonky Star Ornament that doubles as an applique template
Happy Cloud Silky (80/20) Batting in a tablerunner size. This 19” x 55” package of batting is the perfect amount for the enclosed project.
A Double Tumbler Template. This nifty little template has options for both a chunky and skinny tumbler that can be 1” to 5”!
The Sugar Plum Stocking Pattern, which uses the enclosed templates and fabrics.

And finally, the super cute Peppermint Twist a Whisk. This spatula turns into a whisk with a quick twist. I haven’t seen anything like this before and is a fun addition.

I love this box even more than last year’s. With shipping, it was under $45 and is an over $65 value. I still haven’t made the project from last year’s box, but I think this one will be done soon!
