Christmas in the Philippines
Executive Summary about christmas skits by Rusty Ferguson

My first Christmas in the Philippines has been an inspirational, mind opening and refreshing holiday. My social interest in Christmas had waned over the years. The reason for my renewed interest is the way Christmas is celebrated in the Philippines. Now, they start celebrating Christmas in this country in September by playing Christmas music in the stores. Most of the Philippines officially celebrate nine days of Christmas with Mesa de Gallo. This is an early morning prayer ceremony. This translates to “mass of the rooster” or “mass at dawn.” Depending on which part of the Philippines one is from. There are adults walking down the street singing songs out of the joy in their heart. Children too walk down the street singing. There are decorations that are unique to the Philippines. The Philippines has many poor people. The Bogo City employees held a public Christmas party in a park at center of the city. They presented skits and sang Christmas carols in the offical language of the Philippines (Tagalog) but also in English and Cebuano (Cebuano is the primary language in Cebu Province and other parts of the Central Philippines.) The employees set off fireworks and wore elf customs as part of their presentation plus fancy dance moves that thrilled the citizens of Bogo City.

Christmas Party Games to Make Your Event a Hit
Executive Summary about christmas skits by Gail Leino

Have you ever been at a Christmas Party that didn’t have and Christmas party games? Gathered here are some interesting suggestions to add a little spice to your party.

Take a well known story or poem, not necessarily pertinent to the Christmas theme, and remove the nouns, verbs, adverbs, names, numbers, and any other words that make the story whole. Make a worksheet for your guests to fill by only listing what type of word existed previously. Being creative by relating this to the type of function you are holding, as in family reunion friend gathering or coworker function, increases its success.

If karaoke is of interest to the guests this provides entertainment for everyone, participants and viewers alike. Another creative way to incorporate music into the party is to re-word familiar jingles pertaining to Christmas by changing names to people in the audience.

Christmas Art Quilt Patterns Executive Summary about christmas clip art by Penny Halgren

Once you find the right Christmas art, quilt patterns to showcase it generally fall right into place. First, select simple art. Maybe your first Christmas art quilt pattern design shouldn’t be an intricate scene. A Christmas art quilt pattern that centers on a Christmas tree can be very simple or more intricate, depending on your skill level. Once you find the Christmas art you want to use for your quilt pattern, print it out and you’ll have your Christmas art.

Once you’ve selected your Christmas art, quilt pattern selection is next. Maybe you’ll choose to appliqué your Christmas art onto a large panel in the center of your quilt and border with several blocks of your favorite quilt pattern. Maybe the Christmas art you want to incorporate into your quilt pattern is a favorite family Christmas photo. I recommend putting the photo on a quilt block prior to piecing. Photo transferring is easy. If you’ll be printing the photo on darker fabric, make sure to get transfer paper especially formulated for dark fabric. Follow the directions included to create your photo Christmas art quilt pattern.

Another method of transferring photos is through direct to fabric digital printing. Wording your question that way should help you weed through to find a good photo printer for your Christmas art quilt pattern.

Choosing one of these traditional Christmas quilt patterns would be an easy way to create a holiday family heirloom.

If you chose to piece a Christmas art quilt pattern like that, appliqué wouldn’t be necessary. Once you have completed your Christmas art quilt pattern, don’t forget to sign and date the quilt. Use a fabric marker to sign your name and date the quilt.
