Four (And A Bit) To Go...

I've come this far, and I'm nearly there. Only the one (with the needle in it) to complete, and four more to go. There are two more participants this month, so I have a dozen total cards to make. Happily, no two snowflakes are identical, so I'm having fun coming up with a different shape for each one. 

I've been sidetracked by other tasks (like designing a little kitty purse), so I haven't added to these since the weekend, but I'll be getting back to them in the next day or so.

Once my needlework is complete, these will be mounted on playing cards, my label affixed to the back, and they'll be ready to mail. I wish I could capture the sparkle of the thread and beads. They really do twinkle in the light!

I'm working until four today, so stitching will have to wait until after dinner. I should be able to complete two or three before bed, and if I'm really on a roll, I could finish all the stitching tonight. We'll see.

Today is #2 Son's Birthday, so I don't want to forget to wish him the happy, happy, happiest of Birthdays. We'll plan to celebrate with him soon.

  2. As soon as the picture came up this morning, before reading a word, I thought, "I love it...no two snowflakes are the same, just like real snowflakes!" Kuddos to you for the extra effort put into that!

  3. At least when they're each different you won't get bored making them. I'd rather have this kind of snowflake any day.
