I'm in a new design creating mood. Any ideas for some fall and Christmas appliques designs? I seem to be brain dead this morning. :lol:

This was the lastest prim snowman applique I came up with but I'm not sure I like it. I think the face may be a little dark but for my blocks I only use the off white backgrounds.

What size? I just got a pattern called 'If Mary had been a Quilter' from ebay. I have looked and can't find it there any more, but then I Googled it, and this site has it:

This is a fair sized panel for a wall hanging, but I think you could reduce it a little if it was too large. Just an idea!

Pretty Ornament appliques seem to be the newest trend for the christmas quilts and runners. It would be fun to do them in the new modern colors people are using on thier trees now.
Or how about animals dressed for christmas? I like that idea.

How about a city scene? That would be fun.
