No problem, it happens! I just need to decide if I'm going to make a pillow or something else

I saw your picture below...I think you could put one of each of those in the corners and it would look great!!

I bought some fabric today for sashing. I'm thinking that I will try and finish it for Christmas for my MIL. One of the blocks has Scottie fabric in it. She collects Scotties! I'll see if I can get some pics tonight.

Okay girls, here are four of the christmas card holders in different stages of making them. I will post try to post the first two finished ones first and then the other two. The two bottom blocks on all of them are the pockets. They will get a wooden rod across the top that fits into little triangles to hold them straight and be able to hang them up with.

Some of these blocks are from earlier swaps with the gals here. All together I used nine blocks to make these hangers.

Thanks girls! I like the idea so much I am working on four more to give this year. I just worked out a quick pattern by myself and went for it!
I think I will try and find a nice christmas music CD and put cookies/candy in a bag in the last pocket fold it up and ribbon the whole thing. If I am smart, I will also just put thier card in there too and save on postage. That should be a fun gift to get from us.
