Feeling Flaky



I was off today and will be off the rest of the week.  I made my bread and will be making my pies in a minute. The kids, kids in laws, and grandkids will all be here tomorrow to give thanks. I'll be serving up lots of goodness from this year's garden. 

Our record snow of 9.9 inches this weekend and some snowmen have all but disappeared due to today's warmer temperatures. 

The snow reminded me that I was going to make snowflakes out of snowflake fabrics for a quilt I've had running around in my head for awhile. 

Actually, this is the Spoke block pattern from Block Lotto but I'm using it as a snowflake.

I saw the picture and thought 'asterisks'. I was hoping you would add a few more punctuation marks so it would look like swearing. You could name the quilt 'Y seams'...

Oh wow, these are fantastic - I think they're probably one of my favourite winter time blocks I've seen :) I hope you had a great Thanksgiving with family and friends :)
