I had made 3 of the 6 Snow Crystals in that series for 3 of my kids, and and since then I&#8217;ve had 2 more kids so I need to make them each a Snow Crystal. If I remember, the crystals stitch up even faster than the Santas so I expect to get them done this month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ve put some stitches in my various other projects but not enough to show progress.  I find I can best stitch on those darker linens in the bright daylight in the car while I&#8217;m waiting in the school pick up line and that is my most shortest stitching time. But I&#8217;m glad I&#8217;ve found a way to stitch them at all!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And there&#8217;s your update for this first week of February!
