I just quilted a king size quilt that had the Santa with the animal skin. I had never seen it and it is really neat looking-who would have thought. The lady said she got it at Hobby Lobby a few years ago. The scarves are really nice, love the fringe-will try your accidental discovery myself. :)

I got the fabric at Hobby Lobby two days ago and it is 50% off! Both fabrics!
The crystals are Jolle's Jewels 4mm and 5mm Swarovski elements HOTFIX. You have to use the hotfix tool to adhere them but they STAY on. If the package doesn't say hotfix you have to use a glue and it is a pain. With the tool it heats up and they adhere to any fabric. I think you can get the tool at Michael's for around $10 for the no name and $19.99 for the Jolee's one but you could use a coupon. I got the crystals there too. There is a cheaper brand of the same thing but they aren't as nice the the true Swarovski ones. The color I used is the Crystal AB but they have all kinds of different colors. On the red scarf I used jet.

It was by accident that I curled the fringe. I cut regular fringe with scissors. One got pulled taught when I stood up and it stretched out and curled up. So then I started pulling them and running my finger nail down it while I pulled and they curled up. I'd never seen fleece do that but when I pulled them taught and ran my nail down them while pulling they all curled.
