Default Uses for my Christmas Fabric stash

I need some ideas to help use up my stash of Christmas fabric. I thought I saw a Thread about it earlier but now I can't find it. I know I will make some of the fabric boxes! I can't believe the amount of Christmas fabric that I discovered today while working in my sewing room. Any quick to cut and sew quilt patterns? Thanks!

All kinds of fun things you can make - place mats, table runners, wall hangings, totes, vests, Christmas stockings, gift bags, boxes, bowls . . .

How about a Log Cabin Diamond tree skirt or patchwork Christmas stockings or a mantle scarf? If you have green and red you can do the Poinsettia tablerunner from my QB tutorial Faux Flowers. The fabric boxes will look cute in Christmas fabrics.

I had the same question. I have to 13 gal trash bag full of Christmas fabric. I've made pillow cases, table runner and wall quilts. But don't look it put a dent in my collection.

A few years back Eleanor Burns published a book called "Christmas at Bearpaw Ranch", I purchased it and it has 28 ideas to use your Christmas scraps. I love it.
