how about a white with silver or gold filigree?

This is just lovely! For the Christmas one, I'd use white or ecru. I think either would really make the greens and reds pop!

Maybe a gold with some sparkle in it. Love the look of this one. Thanks for sharing.

That is real pretty. It sure doesn't look like it came from scraps.
As for Christmas red and green, why couldn't you use white--plain, simple and clean looking.

Great topper. How about black sashing to pop out those Christmas prints? I just did 2 runners last Christmas with Cedar Canyon rub on plates and use black sashing and they were bright and Christmasy.
Great pattern for scraps and the triangles really look terrific. Keep up the great scrappy busters.
