I have struggled with decorating for Christmas since my Mom passed away almost 4 years ago. She loved every little thing about Christmas and made it very special. I finally kicked myself in the butt for her and decided to do more than put up a tree. I am making curtains for my living room and kitchen with some of these adorable prints. And I couldn't resist the book panel after seeing all the quilts made with them. And besides, everything was half off!!! :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Green trees for window at top of front door.

Words will be valance and package will be curtain for kitchen door.

Will be a valance for kitchen window. The light blue dots is the top of the fabric.

I love the second bunch!! Where did you find them??
I lost my Dad the 15th of December, twenty years ago, before he passed, made us promise to celebrate that year and every year after. I still miss him . . . .

So glad you decided to jump back in to Christmas decorating. Your mom would be proud of you. It is really a tribute to her that you are doing this since she loved it so much. Way to go.

The fabric is just adorable and your planned projects should work perfectly with the fabric you have chosen for each one.

Don't forget pics of the finished projects.

I found the white background with presents and words at Hancock Fabrics. It was $7.99 a yard but half off, so I got 2 of each. The other fabrics I bought at Hobby Lobby, also half off.

I know she would want me to do something for the babies. They are at such an adorable age. Lexi is now 5 and Gabe is 20 months. I am looking forward to getting everything done.
