    I love to have tablecloths in all the seasons. I have a round 48" table and have one for Christmas, fall, spring, summer and several more that can be used any time of the year. I also have tablerunners for a buffet that match the tablecloths.

    I just pick out fabrics and make them into quilts. Usually fall ones I give to men or boys. I haven't really made any for specific holidays.

    I am the anti-theme quilt girl. I see cute fabrics, but I don't decorate for anything, and unlikely to start, so I pass it all right by. Of course, I could change my attitude at any time if a project really grabs me. Right now I keep seeing this quilt that looks like a big present that appeals to me. Thinking about it, maybe I should make something that looks like a Christmas tree, then just hang it up on Christmas Eve when I have family over.

    So far I've only done major holiday decor for Christmas. Have a little bit for fall, winter and patriotic, most of which has been claimed so I don't really have it either. Lol!

    I love to make seasonal tabletoppers and runners. I have winter, autumn, spring and summer as well as Christmas, Easter & St Pats Day.

    I made a 30x30" wall hanging of the same pattern with a different focus for each month. I change them out monthly. I also have seversl counted cross stitch pic that I change with the season. I also decorated for the 4 seasons with added things for holloween and easter. I usually decorated month of DEc for Christmas and then change to snowman Jan -March. I use some wallhangings. But it seems to be getting less and less as I get older. as for purses- I use one for summer and then one for winter. Am too lazy to change more often

    I have seasonal table runners I use on my hutch and a 16 x 20 inch wall hanging for every month. I'm working on a set of monthly wall hangings 8 x 24. I also have several larger wall hangings that are seasonal. I have two more in mind for my 30 x 40 inch series. One will be summer flowers on a "brick wall" background. The fall one will be cattails and a giant frog on a jelly roll batik background.

    We have plans and some fabrics for seasonal quilts, but the time to make them is the problem. Our first class quilts were for winter, and we have Christmas, Halloween, patriotic, harvest, and rainy day fabrics. Our idea was to rotate them in the den where we spend most of our time. So far they're just ideas.

    For some reason I am unable to post pictures here again. I don't know what changed that I am unable to do so. Anyway, I do have many seasonal wall hangings. You can see mine in my projects page. Today I hung up the one with the big leaves and in my craft room I hung up a scarecrow panel that I loved and quilted. I have a few quilted wall hangings for thanksgiving, Christmas, fourth of July one, valentines and about three for Spring and Summer and a few for Winter. My favorite for winter is the snowmen peeking in the window. I LOVE that one. Check them out on my projects page if you would like to see them.
