    Margie....EQ is a great program for designing and it has a nice block library..but nothing in the library really that you can't find on quilterscache.com.....You know...you can choose to use all Christmas fabric with a very simple block...you could choose a Christmas applique theme and use any old fabric...You could go with just winter colors and any block you like...maybe pick a room in your home that you'd like to use the quilt for the holidays. Pick a fabric that goes well in there and start from there....it will come to you....sometimes it just takes a little while for the idea to come to perfection in your head!! :lol: :lol:

    PS. as a side note, for all my quiling folks out there can we stick to this theme/colors for my quilt...? I don't know what it was written down, but these are the colors of my bedroom and I'd kinda like to stick to that if at all possible! :-)
    I was just going to ask you that. I'll have to see what I've got that matches. Oh boy, can't wait to see it in person!!

    mrsj82 - I put on that you would like some forest green. I'm sure all the rows that follow will match yours. No one will be screaming to add a crazy color. :) Want to post a photo of your bedroom so we can be sure to match it? :) LOL! I'm in your group, and I get yours last. I so have no trouble working with the pretty green and blues you used in your row. :D

    EQ5 is a bit expensive. A $100 or more. I read raves about it all the time. They also have EQ6 now as well, which is the newer version.

    Margie I agree with Sandpat try to stick with something easy, with great fabric it will look amazing.

    Awesome! It doesn't have to be the same colors, just something in that same general area. If that's already on there, then cool! It's going out in the mail today!
