A Snow Crystal Done and one Begun

This one was started and finished last week, but has just now been pressed. I love how each one of these pink and white blocks is just a little different.

The centre star and four partial stars for the corners are ready for the next block.

There are still some leaves on the roof garden trees but a lot have fallen — and the boys are spending a lot of time watching them floating by the window. They’re saying we may get lake effect snow today. If we get large enough snowflakes, they’ll be chasing them!

Your pink collection must be huge! Please consider showing us all the ones you have made (in a line or square, or something like that). I’d love to see all those different pinks together – I love pink.

That’s really complicated piecing, but definitely worth it! The marbled pink is delicious.We had our first flurries yesterday, and I missed them! Guess they didn’t amount to much, but it’s clear what’s coming before long. At least it’s supposed to warm up for Halloween.

Wow Cathi! I just made one little star and that was enough for me, LOL. Thank you for sharing the pressing and unfinished pictures of your blocks. They look great!! I did my LeMoyne star using Linda’s hand piecing method and then discovered her Inklingo download for these. Love the pinks too…:-D Elly
