Julie Bowersett in giveaway, snowflake

I had hoped to post this a little earlier today but I had to wait for my random number generator to wake up from his nap.

My little guy picked out Kristine Louis' name for the lace snowflake so more snow will be coming your way, Kristine!  I think you might enjoy this flake a little more than the stuff on the ground at the moment.  I will pop this in the mail to you (as soon as the mail starts running again!).  I hope you enjoy it and think of me when you hang it on your tree next year.  Thanks so much to everyone who left comments for me.  Keep reading -- I will be having more giveaways soon.

Karen asked for some details about the embroidered snowflakes.  I used polyester embroidery thread and stitched the design on two layers of Aqua Magic stabilizer.  I rinsed the stabilizer out with warm water but only briefly -- I left plenty of stabilizer in to make the snowflake stiff.

And now here's a little sneak peek of what I've been working on this week.  More white stuff!  Check back next week for full details.
