If you're looking for a pattern to use a collection of many prints, I can tell you one I loved. "I Can't Believe It's A Beginner" by Margot Lanquedoc for The Pattern Basket.
I can see using true Christmas prints/novelties with great results...reds, blues, greens, golds...Santas, toys, candies, gifts, etc.
Here's the one I did if you'd like to see it...Hope you'll enjoy it too.
