    :oops: I am confused, so can someone help straighten me out :oops:

    Is it 12 blocks of the same ? Snowmen or Snow Flakes or 6 of each ? Or can you do (for example) 1 set (12) of snowmen and 1 set of 6 snowmen and 6 snow flakes ? I hope I don't make this any more confusing for anyone else :oops:
    Thanks

    You can do 12 of the same, or 6 of each as long as there are 12 in a set.

    Where can I get a pattern for a snowflake? I found blocks that was called snowflake, but they where not...they was stars.

    So far we have 31 swappers. If anyone knows of a pattern for snowflake or snowmen, would you be willing to share with the rest of the swappers. I seen a pattern for a snowflake in a Debbine Mumm book today at Joann's. Can't remeber the name of the book. Actually I saw a pattern block called snowflake somewhere also. You could also make your own snowflake, like we used to when we were kids, and applique it.

    I just did some snowflakes on a border for a Round Robin quilt I was doing for someone else. I took snowflake images, enlarged them, traced them onto fusible, fused the fabric, cut out, then fused to the fabric I used as a base. Then I machine-stitched on some of them, left some not stitched down, as my friend may have other ideas she wants to do to complete.

    It was easy, but I didn't take any pictures. Sorry. I won't see a photo of the finished quilt for a few weeks (we're nearly done with our RR).

    Edited to add: why not try Google? Put "pieced snowflake quilt pattern" into your search engine of choice and see what comes up?
