Jolly Box 2020

I feel like I haven't been getting much done; lately, it's been a bit tough, but today is my birthday, and a birthday surprise arrived! The Fat Quarter Shop 2020 Jolly Box! I wasn't expecting it to come for a few more days, so it was a pleasant surprise. I'm sure you're wondering what was in it, so I'll stop babbling and get to sharing.

I didn't have any clues about what would be in the Jolly Box this year since fabric has been selling so quickly in the last seven or so months, and there's not much Christmas fabric left to be had. I was quite surprised when I opened it at Deer Christmas by Urban Chiks for Moda was staring back at me.

Here's what was in the box:

Fat Quarter Shop Exclusive Deer Christmas Multi Deer Quilt Panel - at 23" x 42" it's smaller than the original panel, but a great size for a wall hanging.

Deer Christmas Charm Pack - charm packs, need no description, do they? 5" squares of this adorable fabric collection ready to go!

North Pole Quilt Pattern - The finished size of this project is 27 1/2" x 36 1/2", so it's an excellent option for a wall hanging. It uses the panel and charm pack for a simple, quick project that can quickly be done in time to celebrate this year.

Oh Deer! Socks - One cannot have enough socks, especially up here in Massachusetts! These cute socks feature the deer from the Deer Christmas fabric line and polka dots. And, I, for one, cannot get enough polka dots.

Two Spools of Aurafil 50wt - Pretty self-explanatory, two small spools in two colors I often use, 2600 and 2024.

Frost Lynx Infinity Scarf Kit - I'm certainly intrigued by this. I've wanted to give Minky a go for a while, but I just haven't leaped. I guess I will now with this infinity scarf kit! I'm looking forward to having something soft and warm, especially as the daylight hours quickly get shorter; something soft and comforting is just what you need. There are some similar ones here.

Homegrown Holidays Pocket Notepad - From Moda, this cute notepad has a magnetic closure and smooth paper (I'm a paper-snob sometimes) with a linen-print and snow-covered trees.

This box is pretty different from the previous two Jolly Boxes, but I'm pleased with the variety in this one. We get to try a little of everything with this one.
