    I think your backgrond is fine. Mine were all plain, ços that's what I had, but I kinda like the idea of some busy, some less busy, some plain for visual interest. I say finsih it and send it as it is. Love him.

    I think I'm going to do embroidery on most of my blocks.
    Should I do the background in white or a light cream color?
    Since Santa is going to be red & white, I was wondering if he will show up enough on a white background. :?:
    Any suggestions???

    OK everyone, I'm having a mini crisis here. I bought some really cute fabric for the border on my block. I don't have enough and it is nowhere to be found. I will have 2 blocks missing that border. Please tell me what would you do. The border is red but I can get it in green. Would you do those 2 blocks in the green?

    HELP!!!!

    Sure. it doesn't matter, becaus we will probably only get one of your blocks.

    As it's unlikely anyone will get more than one of yur blocks, it won't matter. I did almost all my blocks different.
