One of my loyal readers suggested a year or so ago that I write just one snowflake pattern per month instead of walk away from my blog when things get so busy I don't have time for it. It feels like that's what I'm doing right now! I think this is the third consecutive week I haven't had a chance to write the pattern for the flake I designed based on my last published pattern, Spectrum Snowflake.
Thanks to my mother-in-law (who wants me to be able to continue working from home), I ordered a new computer back in January. Because the one I'm typing this very blog post on is beginning to really show its age. Plus, Windows 7 is no longer supported, and although I was mandated to upgrade to Windows 10 last year in order to keep using my paid Photoshop subscription, I'm loosing access to more and more programs and features each week as this old dinosaur sincerely tries to keep plodding along.
My new computer arrived two weeks ago, and it's still in the box in which it came. I haven't even had a chance yet to open it. (And I'm running out of days to return it if there is a problem!!!) Lizard jokes that I'm quarantining the new computer because it came from overseas. Smirk, smirk.
I shot about 260 snowflake photos during our last storm, which was March 30. I've still got about 230 more to edit. (Plus a ton of photos from a December storm I still haven't even viewed yet.) I hope you enjoy a few of my most recent edited flakes today as consolation for no new pattern.
