Background was white on white circles to infer the snow that comes as small balls instead of flakes. One of my favorite quilts. One snowflake even has a smiley face.

In any case I love it - like the quiet greys with snowflakes glowing in their midst, like the inclusion of the snowball and now I'm excited to see snowflake quilting.

About 12-15 years ago at a guild garage sale, I bought a pretty pink Dresden Plate kit (everything cut and ready to sew), and it is still sitting in my sewing closet, the plastic covering still around it. I'm asking myself why is that? (I think I know the answer!) Maybe I'll get started on it "this year" with your blog's encouragement. ---"Love"---"Love"https://www.blogger.com/profile/14253789635330034057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3697842410896958739.post-74214519903967083422017-05-23T09:15:22.464-05:002017-05-23T09:15:22.464-05:00I really like that you filled in with the solid sq...I really like that you filled in with the solid squares, it's so much more interesting this way.

The cute snowball at the bottom is so you. <br />It's also interesting to realize you set each UFO in it's own box with added fabrics. What a great way to keep them moving - as opposed to setting them all in the same box to be mixed together and forgotten.<br />Thanks for linking this beauty with AHIQ.Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12922656955543465650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3697842410896958739.post-9005690843942959942017-05-23T08:05:28.253-05:002017-05-23T08:05:28.253-05:00I love how you put the leftover pieces and parts o...I love how you put the leftover pieces and parts of some other quilts together, and made this pretty one!
