Snowflake - Christine Lee
Machine quilted on a velvet background, a few beads feathers and foils. Face made of plaster of paris.
Please use your imagination and think of it as a snowflake.
What a beautiful snow princess. Love the use of velvet, and doesn't it make the quilting stand out. Is this your snowflake version 1 or 2?
