Purple

As you can see from this new block I have joined this tiny hexagon BOM from Dawn Hay. I had won some Fairy Frost charms and thought they would be perfect for these Snowflake blocks.
One more flower done. The picture looks like it is foggy outside but it was just my camera lens fogging up because of the high humidity we are having. I actually think the picture looks pretty neat.
With Passion,

  4. Those are both great pictures. Is that fairy frost fabric a little more difficult to crease, because it's so stiff?

    One morning last week, I thought our picture window had fogged up on the inside. I went to wipe it off and discovered it was on the outside! That doesn't happen very often, but when it does, you KNOW it's humid.

  13. Sweet little hexie's. If you wear glasses do they fog up outside? Mine do and it drives me nuts.

    Like Annette, your quote made me think as well.

  17. Carrie, I love your snowflake thanks for sharing it. If you'd like to see mine, I've blogged about the first two here and finished the 3rd one last night. Am off to ask Dawn if there's a flickr group because I would love to see all the blocks together.
