The snow is piling up outside and on this month's crazy quilting block.
The block came to me as part of a round robin. I chose this block that had Minnie Mouse with a stash of snowballs.
Who has a snowball fight by themselves? I added the snow woman with her own stash of snowballs. She started as a scrap of printed material that I covered with floss. I made a tiny pom pom for her hat.
I tried drawing the two together by adding tulle stitched in place with chain stitches.
I filled the other blocks woth a variety of snowflakes. Some started as flower trim I snipped apart and then embroidered on. There are snowflakes made of sequins, of beads and from floss.
I added a layer of tulle to several patches to add some of the sparkle often seen with snow.
Almost every seam has some embroidery. I also added rickrack and beads to one block.
The package of blocks is on its way to the next quilter.
