The angle effect you used is awesome. I see why there is not a snowflake on the bare side. That would take away from the angle. Also, here in Ohio, we have snow and flowers at the same time usually in the month of March. Beautiful idea!

IMHO, it doesn't need anything in the bottom left corner. I like it just the way it is. Of course, I tend to have some kooky ideas. I would leave it just as it is.

That being said, the snowflakes are beautiful.

This is what I was thinking also.

She is asking about the placement of the snowflakes, not whether you think they should be there or not.

I think your quilt is beautiful! Keep it the way you have it.

I like it the way it is your eyes rest on the left corner.
That is a beautiful quilt.

It is beautiful. I love the soft shades in the background blocks. I would add a snowflake to the left.

Agreement here that left corner snowflake would be too even looking, but what if you moved the upper right small flake to the lower right corner, even extending into the border? It would give an odd number on each side and interrupt the even spacing of the small flakes, for a random and graceful look, completing your lovely arrangement.
