Snowflake Ballet
This lavender and white snowflake seems to drift across the view with its sparking lavender and white beads and glittering floss, as it dances in the Christmas lights. It is a time of magic and delight; a time when even snowflakes can dance a ballet across the sky.

Peppermint Christmas Pillow

Peppermint for us is always something that we have associated with Christmas.  Soft peppermint sticks, peppermint candy canes and peppermint discs were special treats.  So our Christmas tree celebrates those memories that seem to linger in our minds with a special sweetness.  Take the time to savor your memories as you stitch this piece.
