Snowfall...

I'm sure folks in the northeastern US are tired of snow by now, but here in Florida we have to make our own.

So, here's Tor Rhuann's 2009 Christmas ornament!

The picture doesn't sparkle very much, but I stitched this on opalescent lugana, with Waterlilies "Ink", and silver and dark blue Petite Treasure Braids. It's definitely more sparkly and wintry than the scan would indicate!

The hexagonal design was a bit of a late inspiration, and was a bit of a challenge to get to look "right" to me. But I think it was worth it.
