Here's some other snow that has developed around the house:
This snow was precipitated (!) by Margaret Oomen at Resurrection Fern; her endless blog wonderland of inspiration is one of my favorite places to escape to. A couple of weeks ago, she generously laid out the making of these snowflake pendants. It took me a little self-encouragement to free-stitch the snowflake, but once I just went for it, I really enjoyed the making. I love wearing the pendant too. When I was getting ready to take photos earlier, I threw myself into a panic because I couldn't find that last one, that's the one I'm keeping. Guess where I found it? Around my neck! Silly me. My pendants are about 2" in diameter and strung from a handspun merino crochet chain, but just imagine the possibilities! I've had to write down the list of ideas because they keep coming, and I worry that I'll forget before I get to stitching. I'm thinking of a holly sprig with berries, icicles, fir branches, pinecones, etc. Thank you, Margaret, for the inspiration and instructions, again!Any snow in your neck of the woods?!

The snowflakes are darn cute! Stitching can be fun but a lot of patience is required.
I love your new banner!

Yes! About two and a half feet of snow!!
I love your embroideries! I have been doing some similar projects lately, (though not with snowflakes). I'm really enjoying embroidering on wool felt.
These are so beautiful Annri. So sweet and I love that they will still be perfectly placed even after the holidays—love that.
