For my 3 sisters started , about 3 years ago making a Christmas themed block for their gift and birthdays. Is 9 inches and making 20 then will put together a Christmas sampler quilt for them, is fun. For my quilting buddies making hot pads with fabric think would suit each of them or in their taste, have 2 made for family starting the 3 snowmen projects have and some year the Christmas bed quilt for DH and I. Love Christmas sewing!
