I think they would make wonderful Christmas gifts, and nobody has to know how little time it took you to make them. I was thinking of making a couple, as I have some jazzy Christmas fabric that I bought, but couldn't find the right pattern to make any quilt blocks from it. As one quilter recommended a firm, flexible interfacting, I think that would work great. I'm always looking for quick gifts that may take little time, but look great. Last year I made my DS and DDIL a very long runner using the heat resistant batting for them to use on their buffet, as their electric coffee pot was threatening to burn the top. I used the zig -zag pattern I found online and it looks great.
