I have an assortment of 5" Christmas squares in reds, greens, blues, some glitters, as well as white and creams. I need ideas as to what is the best way to use these. Any suggestions would be appreciated. :idea:

Missouri Star Quilt Co. has lots of patterns on their site for them too. Check out their free videos on how to use them and other pre-cut fabrics.
