I've done Cobblestone Street and it is fairly quick and easy and makes a very pretty and distinctive quilt. Would be great in Christmas fabrics.

That is 7.5 yards. I look at the color families and break it up that way and also the size of the prints. Often you might need to add more of a neutral like crème in a similar range as found in the bundle. I use larger prints as a focal point like the center of a star or other larger areas. reds and more solid darker FQs as start points or smaller pieces that need to stand out. Make sure to use colors that contrast next to each other.
