Katie of There and Back is hosting a Winterkist blog hop and Lecien graciously supplied the fabric for us to play with. What to create? I got a wonderful rainbow assortment and today is my day to show you what I've made with this happy fabric.

When Katie sent along this fabric, it just shouted "fussy cut" to me. Those little snow flakes just wanted to pop out on their own.
I've been digging hexies lately and will have a few more to show you soon.
In the meantime, be sure to visit Katie's blog and all the others for some fun Winterkist inspiration!
Thanks again Katie for including me!
