Looking for a pattern
Hi Everyone, Does anyone know of a Christmas pattern that can be made into a 12 inch block. I am thinking of a Santa face or anything Christmas. This would only be for one 12 inch block. I have a little hanger that holds a 12 inch block. For Halloween I made a pumpkin and a small witch. Thanks for any ideas.

Re: Looking for a pattern
I, too, need to make a Christmas block for my outdoor flag..I'm thinking about just free hand sketch of a tree...applique it on and embellish it with buttons or something...and maybe a package wrapped underneath. And I'm going to check out the Quilt in a Day Christmas books for ideas, too. I love to do applique and there are lots of patterns in El's books! I'm anxious to hear others ideas, too!

Re: Looking for a pattern
also for designing your own - find a child's coloring book with large pictures - you can trace them for your shapes - all different seasons etc - just remember to add seam allowances if you are doing hand applique or just the actual size if you are doing the easy fusible kind of applique.
