sewingsuz - I also have Christmas fabric that I want to use. I'm thinking of sewing my Christmas 2 1/2" squares together (scrappy) and then cutting different Christmas shapes (trees, bells, stars, etc) out of solid colors and then randomly appliqué them onto the top of the quilt.

I would make table runners and placemats. I like to keep the runners and placemats on my dining room table during the Christmas season
|
How about a triple or double Irish Chain, they make gorgeous quilts.
|
I would probably do some kind of star pattern. Or even use them for geese's with stars randomly. I like scrappy
|
I saw a scrappy triple Irish chain with a light background recently that would look wonderful in your Christmas fabric.
|
I think the suggestion of Irish Chain would be pretty.
|
I'm hooked on Mondo Bags, they use 192 squares. It's been a great stash buster. You could make Christmas gifts.

Quiltville 'Fourth of July' used a lot of 2 1/2" squares with a [ATTACH=CONFIG]572729[/ATTACH]background fabric and two other colors(these could be scrappy, too, as long as you choose darker squares. Google Quiltville Fourth of July and look at the blue one). You could use more by making them part of the border, too.
