Here is our new Snowman for 2013. I have spent 3 months with stacks of hand-dyed fabrics on my desk trying to decide which color to use this year. I had several pretty pieces that I was quite determined to use, but the more I drew, the more my eyes sought out the grey linen. By the time I had chosen my threads and was ready to begin stitching, I knew that it was going to be a grey snowman for this year. Teri and I have laughed many times this January--as we have existed in a grey world ourselves--that this was definitely the year for it. That being said, I just love this little snow globe snowman! The colors are lovely and subtle, and Jill's mat filled with fabulous, gilded snowflakes is a true knockout. I hope you love it as much as I do.
