Giggle nuntium duocentesimum sextum

College daughter came home this week after being back at school for three.  Look what she made while there!
There was another but she gave it to a friend for her birthday.  Diane, that's three and half in three weeks!!!

Here's the motif from DMC Tats:
It's not better, it's just me... or the pattern.

And just in case you were wondering, yes, of course a snowflake!
This is a remarkably easy pattern that I saw somewhere and have now forgotten where.

Next, something different!

Lilies of the valley - - nuntium duocentesimum quintum

I thought I would try another flower in the bottle but for this I needed long and skinny.  Lilies of the Valley.


Early on a dark day in Minnesota
with a flash- too bright

Technologically enhanced.  Can you see the yellow beads?
 And then I was tired of fiddly stuff and thought I'd try another motif # from DMC Tats.  This is motif #22 and it didn't work.  I made #6  a couple of years ago and it was wonderful but #6 wasn't. It's too crowded and just-ugh.  I haven't blocked it but I dislike things that must be blocked into submission.

Blue River Glades again
Must be time for more snowflakes...
