Only a suggestion but how about seasonal, Fall, Winter, Spring, & Summer.

Sounds like fun!!

For those of you already looking at Christmas projects for next year, Walmart has all of the Christmas fabric half price ($2.22 per yard!), bought a piece, and they were mostly quilt shop quality. The holiday fabric they get, is usually last years from the LQS industry. Hope this helps some of you. {HUGS}

It doesn't have to be "Christmas" fabric. Use color or print combinations that scream Christmas. Red and green, blue and white, dark green and maroon, whites..........
