    That is pretty. I want to do my Christmas decoration in blue & silver. Been thinking about it for quite some time now. Thanks for sharing.

    I would just google designs to get an outline and use wool or batting scraps..make them more 3-d and fluffy like snowflakes.

    I made my patterns by folding and cutting paper shapes.

    I would go with getting coloring pages -- here are some sample pages:

    http://www.coloring.ws/winter3.htm
    http://www.edupics.com/coloring-page...ke-i10356.html
    http://www.grandparents.com/gp/conte...snowflake.html

    I used to cut them out myself by folding a piece of paper in half and then in half again and cut, then using the paper as a templat. Because of the way snowflakes are cut they are often appliqued the same way that the Hawiian applique is done.
