    Default Christmas fabric quilt ideas

    I love Christmas fabric, especially Christmas red and Christmas green. I have a tub full of fabric in red and green prints, also some gold and cream. I need to start using it up and would appreciate some pattern ideas - scrap quilts , Christmas quilts etc.

    Thank you.

    I saw a quilt picture on Pinterest this week that I saved to my pictures. I can't post it here of course but it was made with jelly roll strips and it was interlocking Christmas trees. From a distance, the trees look like chevrons. It would make a nice everyday quilt done in green and golds or Christmas in red and green. The pattern was in a PDF but my picture hasn't got the site, sorry.

    Tula Pink has a free pattern for a "birdseed quilt." It's an orange peel pattern mixed with flying geese. I used my Accuquilt GO to cut the orange peels. I'm working on that with Christmas fabric.

    Although this is a Christmas quilt, I did it in more Christmassy colors. It is REALLY quick to cut & sew
