atkinssm Mint Chip for Holly - I love batiks and wanted to use a Bali Pop to make a Christmas gift. I came up with this idea that was fast, fun, and easy to make. If anyone is not familiar with Bali Pops, they are a package of 40 assorted 2 1/2" batik strips by Hoffman. I selected 27 of the strips and arranged them so they shaded from one color to the next and cut 6" segments and sewed them together in a bargello style.
