Scandinavian Star Project

Cut Up & Sew is going crafty!!! Betsy came in to the shop to show me one of the Scandinavian Stars she and her sisters made using our fabric. I fell in love and said "will you teach that?!" She happily said yes, and here we are...


Woven ornaments made of fabric, paper and other natural elements are a popular holiday tradition in Scandinavia dating back hundreds of years. Windows and trees are decorated with
these stars during the Christmas season. Many families have traditions of getting together in the beginning of December to make a new woven star ornament each year for their tree.
