I've got a bit of an idea brewing for Christmas place mats, there will be several different blocks to the design and some will just be filled with christmas prints and in other locations, either classic quilt blocks, or an applique, embellished or not dependent on what it is and maybe some novelty blocks either foundation pieced or not, depending on what is necessary.
Just recently, I saw a heart that a friend had done, it was either foundation pieced or some kind of crazy patch work and it looked really nice, but a heart isn't ideal for Christmas, but I can't think of anything simple that lends itself to that kind of filling, the Christmas shapes I can think of are more complex!
I'm intending to do an ohio star as one block, I've got other star blocks detailed in various books and what not, so it's the less conventional things I'm looking for....
any ideas?
