    Default quilter christmas crackers

    They consist of a cardboard tube covered with a piece of calico, the ends snipped with pinking shears and tied with cord/ribbon in a bow. They had a little Christmas seal in the middle for decoration. INSIDE were a couple of fat quarters rolled up, a small candy, a few "quilty" looking gummed labels/stickers. And a little "fortune" or saying to do with quilting and wishing the recipient a Happy New Year. You could put other little items in, like needles, thimble, thread, quilt pin or ??
