    What a great job you have done so far!! I think I would use 3 or 4 panels, making Santa & his sleigh, the reindeer and all of the night wonders - stars, moon, Milky Way, comets, etc. You could put stars above each scene for continuity.
    Just a thought....

    You're off to a great start, they look totally awesome. and I agree with Butterfly48 and look for Christmas coloring books and you might even find some "free" art on the internet, but coloring books would be my first choice and you can probably pick them up at a dollar store.

    What you've done so far is amazing. Hope you continue showing it as you progress. Dover Publishers has some line drawings in their coloring books and activity books. You probably could adapt some of them for your use.

    This is a free pattern I found on a Northcott website that I can't find now, but I did do a yahoo image search, and hundreds of ideas come up. I used " reindeer applique designs" in the search box. The first picture was the pattern, and the second is my interpretation of it. I used the " liquid stRch,small paintbrush, and an iron " method to do it.

    Madame Kelly: Was always drawn to the grace and delicacy of the Northcott design. You did an incredible job of interpreting it.
