Any suggestions???

I've got two on a light background and the others on darker backgrounds.It all depends on what he's doing. Is he delivering presents - night - therefore dark; but last minute rush at the North Pole, I could see as being light; or a tired Santa taking off his boots after his all-night delivery - that would be light. Just my opinion, of course.
But I can see it going either way.

I found my Santa with the walking stick at: http://www.grandparents.com then you look under 'coloring pages' - 'Christmas'. I found a couple of cute ones there. Then I found some cute ones at other quilt shops when I went on a 'virtual' shop hop via computer.

Received your Santa blocks, they are awesome. Can't wait till the swap begins. I want to put mine with the snowmen and winter block swap. I think it could be a cute quilt.
