Mary, I like all of them, however, I agree with Lynnie that they show up better with the light blue background. What size are they?

You can post a picture and we can take a peek see? A 12 1/2" pinwheel block is rather large for that type, but if it's made nicely and with pretty Winter/Holiday fabrics it may work?

My first set, they are 6.5 I may re-do the dark blue, but I really like that fabric, but might find something else that does stand out better. I think I will do some angels, or reindeer, humm so many choices!

Here's my first set of blocks! Sorry the pictures aren't so good. I'm not sure why they kept coming out so dark. The gift fabric has gold accents and the ribbon is metallic gold.

Not Fall...Winter/ Christmas/ Kwanza/ Hanukkah are the holidays I am meaning. PM me if you want to play and let me know how many sets you're planning on making? Thanks for the good question.

I am making bells today with Embroidery machine, need to take break headache Again! will post after a nap. blocks are 6.5.

I am thinking of doing all embroidery instead of half Applique. It is easier for me (the machine does most of the work) and I have so many Christmas designs.

Would that be ok?

Hope I have the time for another project. Would like to join this one. If I get the chance to join how does everyone feel about Santa. I love him and collect him. Have been collecting Santas since I was about 15 and would love to have a quilt with Santa on it. Of course any xmas is better than no xmas.LOL
