A Christmas coloring book for little tikes will give you plenty of shapes. Or free applique' patterns from the web. Christmas shapes like trees, ornaments, mittens, snowmen are pretty simple. Just string them together with squiggly lines. It will be beautiful.

Since your border features mittens, how about a mitten in each of the largest blocks, like in the cornerstones, and loops and strings in the white, perhaps with some other simple shapes included. Cookie cutters could give you some outlines, as could the coloring books. Practice on paper first....
