You should I got the idea from Fons & porter supplemental. Except they used 8 inch panels where I placed the stars

I put this together over the last few days. I mixed in my stars with the snowflake/snowman/santa swaps from earlier this year. Maybe I'll have it finished by next Christmas :lol:

That idea is so neat. What a great way to use blocks from different swaps to pull everything together. Congratulations

Kristen,
I am so impressed by your efforts. I don't know how I feel about the border. Guess you will just have to let it talk to you and then decide. Good Luck, keep us posted

But I also really like a border block on Quilter Cache http://www.quilterscache.com/L/LinksBorder.html
BUT that would be A LOT more work - hmmm?

Thanks! I have to blame Materialgirl as her star was on top of the pile, sitting on my ironing board next to one of the the snowflakes. It just "snowballed" from there :lol:

I thought of combining all the blocks from the snowman, santa and some other christmas blocks I have with the stars. Lord I don't even know for sure how many blocks or the sizes. Love the layout with all your different blocks. :thumbup:
