    Smile Great Christmas gift idea- quick too

    I just watched the new tutorial from the Missouri Star Quilt Company, Jenny made a scarf from 13" of Minkee fabric. Oh my goodness, it looks terrific and easy and fast too. For those of us who are anticipating a cold winter, this looks like a good gift idea. Off I go for some Minkee today. Check out the link below for the tutorial.

    Minkee would work so well. I tried batik the other night and it is just not soft and pliable enough. They say rayon batiks work great, too. Lots of links for this scarf under the name of infinity scarf. They do the last step quite a bit different. Thanks for sharing!

    Jenny's scarf is the easiest method I've seen for the infinity scarf! Love it. : )

    Great idea! Those would be great to make to keep on hand for those unexpected gifts that you inevitably need to give.
