    Those are lovely. I haven't used Christmas fabric in a while and only use it as gifts. I don't know why, but I just don't care for it that much anymore. I only have a select few small Christmas quilts that I have. That is such a great idea to use that fabric up. I will be making some like yours. Thank you for sharing.

    I'm so sorry that this is a bad year Christmas-'wise' for you Many, many are in the same boat and necessity breeds invention and invent you did!

    I think all of the quilts look GREAT! I particularly like the Cardinals/bird/poinsettia quilt both prints I love!!!!!!...should you have any of the Cardinal fabric left over that you want to sell or trade just PM to me and "Let's make a Deal!!

    I'm sure your family or friends will be so warmed by your efforts! Praying that this upcoming year will provide improvement for you and the rest of the nation.
