The pink and white 9″ snow crystal blocks are part of the rotation. I thought there were 13 blocks done, but there were only 11 so this is the twelfth. I have the pieces printed and cut out for another 13 blocks so I’m thinking a 25-block set and then I’ll have my pink and white quilt.
And this is what I’m thinking I’ll use for the sashing. Of course, that may change once all the blocks are done and I lay them out. It may need something stronger or even perhaps just a white or maybe a pink and white stripe.
Kaaren at The Painted Quilt has started a new feature — First Friday Freebie. The first one is a fabulous fall stitchery wall hanging or mini quilt. There’s a button you can grab for your blog as well.

Your Snow Crystal block is amazing, Cathi. I love this pattern. There's just something about 'stars' in a quilt block that just grabs me.Now where is Smudge's head? I really had to look to see which end was up!

That's going to be a pretty quilt–You can have it ready by January when all the Christmas stuff is over and we're longing for spring.I think I'm going to play along on the FFF–haven't done stitchery in a while, but I'm a sucker for all things autumn.
