Thank you so much for your blog - I came across it when I needed something to do while hanging out in a hospital waiting room two years ago. My father-in-law had been in intensive care for about a month, so I taught myself how to thread crochet to pass the time. Everyone who came to visit him raved about how beautiful the snowflakes looked, and soon I was teaching a bunch of family members how to crochet in the hospital waiting room because they wanted to make snowflakes too. It was a great way to be together and it was nice to have something to do when you feel so helpless. Before he died, I showed him my very first snowflake that I made from your blog and he said it was beautiful. For a lot of the family, the snowflakes have become a symbol of that time, which is sad but also beautiful, because he was a wonderful person and we all came together to celebrate his life. I still make them and give them to people for Christmas. Thank you for sharing your wonderful gift.nbogiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00862128081263277168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7672125489692725745.post-12663270910679408742012-09-18T14:46:10.490-06:002012-09-18T14:46:10.490-06:00Magical photos!

I love how you echoed the garlanded arch (well, square arch I guess) in the snowflake.<br /><br />Washington and Oregon are fascinating states - I would love to go back and explore them too.

I am a native of Ft.Collins, but haven't been able to move home yet after going to school out of state. I'm a beginner crochet thread gal, and I am determined to make some of your beautiful creations! Thank you for sharing your patterns. Love the names too!

Thank you!<br /><br />PS: I tried to leave a comment on the video, but I guess you have to accept me as a friend, first. I don't get on there often at all, so I'm sorry I didn't do that sooner!Snowcatcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06360228352528558176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7672125489692725745.post-27464575423325317082012-09-17T09:06:12.888-06:002012-09-17T09:06:12.888-06:00Thanks, Charlotte!

I take frequent breaks, and I bend my fingers in the opposite direction of crocheting once in a while to keep them from getting stiff. Those are tips I got from Ravelry when I was having problems with my elbow, which turned out to be NOT from needlecraft but from mousing.<br /><br />I did have a lot of pain when I broke my wrist last spring, and I found I just couldn't do that much with the cast!Snowcatcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06360228352528558176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7672125489692725745.post-10307961369795567992012-09-17T07:50:11.517-06:002012-09-17T07:50:11.517-06:00Beautiful backdrop!
