Description
Good Cheer brings the nativity to applique. At its center is a 32" x 44" Be of Good Cheer quilt, surrounded by nativity-themed projects including the Peace and Joy and Rejoice quilts and a set of mini nativity stocking ornaments. Built on Nancy Halvorsen's Star of Wonder, Star of Light collection for Benartex, it carries the quiet, reverent feel of the season.
What the Book Includes
This listing is for the printed softcover pattern book, not a kit or a finished quilt. Inside are nine nativity-centered projects with cutting and assembly instructions and color photos. Placement guides for each project make the applique straightforward, a full-color fabric guide shows how much fabric each project needs, and two one-sided inserts hold the placement guides and templates. Fabric, batting, backing, and notions are not included.
What You Can Make
- Be of Good Cheer Quilt, a 32" x 44" appliqued nativity
- Peace and Joy Quilt and Rejoice Quilt
- Mini Nativity Stocking Ornaments
- Additional nativity-themed projects from the same collection
What You'll Need
The projects are applique-forward, with piecing for the borders and backgrounds. Placement guides and full-size templates make positioning the applique pieces straightforward, and a full-color fabric guide lists what each project needs. The samples use the Star of Wonder, Star of Light collection for Benartex, though any reverent palette of golds, greens, and deep reds will suit the theme. Fabric, batting, and backing are purchased separately.
Perfect For
- Quilters who love applique and want a nativity-themed collection
- Anyone making a meaningful Christmas quilt or wall hanging for the season
- Stitchers who appreciate placement guides that simplify applique
- Gift and keepsake makers drawn to the nativity story
Why You'll Love This Book
Good Cheer treats the nativity with real warmth. The central Be of Good Cheer quilt gathers the holy family, shepherds, and a bright star into a single applique scene, and the companion Peace and Joy and Rejoice quilts carry the same gentle style at a smaller scale.
The placement guides are what make it approachable. Applique can feel daunting, but a printed map for every piece takes out the guesswork, so the focus stays on fabric and stitching. One book gives a centerpiece quilt and a season's worth of nativity projects that become keepsakes.
