It's funny I thought cathedral windows too and stars. :lol: I also went online before i posted and found bellaonline. (thanks for the link. didn't see those there earlier) I thought a stack and whack but to afraid to try it. :shock:
I didn't think about the nine patch but I also saw a pattern awhile back (don't know the name of it) it was a 4 patch on point with a small sashing around it and at the points in the sashing there was a square of fabric in a light color. Anyone familiar with that pattern?
A double irish chain or snowball would be pretty too....
The poinsettas are around 4 to 5 inches.
Thanks

That fabric is saying it wants to come live at my house. Tee Hee I like the idea of an Irish chain. Would be beautiful.

I remembered this runner at connecting threads that you might be able to adapt for your quilt ... It is the herbal tablerunner one.

I suggest the Baton Rouge block. A center square, where you could center one of the flowers, using solid matching reds and greens for the framing strips. The block is in the United States Capitals Patchwork Patterns book. If you'd like a copy of the pattern, PM me and I will send you a copy of the pattern.

I made the herbal table runner and it goes together fast. It would look fantastic. Mbybe you want a tree skirt to match. use the flowers around the edge.

Sometimes if you check at the fabric sites they have a pattern to download for it free.

These patterns are wonderful!! I think you would be able to find something here. Be sure to keep us posted, when you decide what you want to do with your Christmas fabic!! :D

Thanks for all the suggestions! I'm torn between two patterns, one is the Baton Rouge block from MissAnn and the other is the Garden Patch variation from quilterscache. http://quilterscache.com/G/GardenPat...ock_Page3.html
Thanks again

Oh the garden variety block will be very pretty! Whatever you choose is going to be stunning, that fabric is just gorgeous!
