Snow

First I did several more rows of the Brick stitch for the background using two strands of Splendor 976.  Then, I decided to start on the snow flakes.  I wanted these a bit different from the first piece flakes, so I chose to work them in Caron Snow in white...how appropo?!  Anyway, I first did a rice stitch and then am alternating additional diagonals....some are // and some are going in the opposite direction so they don't all look alike.
