This is a breath of fresh air because most of the Christmas afghans produced are predominantly red in color. I'd like to make this as a gift to mom, grandma or someone special as doing this project is a labor o love. It helps that the pattern is right on the front page.

LOVE snowflakes! The kids and I look for different ways to make them every year - we put them up right after Thanksgiving and leave them hanging around long after Christmas is gone! This snowflake afghan is beautiful and evenif I don't win it - I might learn the pattern to make for next year!

This is one of the most beautiful afghans I've ever seen and my mom was an ace at crocheting so I've seen some beauties. Love the snowflakes - they're so delicate looking.

I'd like to try this snowflake afghan with different colors; maybe an ice blue for the flakes and lighter blue (not navy) for the background...or red or a deep purple...um, more ideas than yarn...lol _

I love the snowflakes pattern. It is very appropriate for this time of year. I crochet and tat a lot of snowflakes to be used on our Christmas tree each year.

The Snowflake Quilt is absolutely beautiful. The background reminds me of a crystal clear cool blue winter night sky and snowflakes falling from the clouds above. I love winter, and the quilt makes me think of all the great times I have had downhill skiing and then wrapped up in front of a fire with a cup of hot cocoa. Perfect for the season!

The Snowflake Afghan is gorgeous! The dark blue background with the white snowflakes just pop. This would make a decorative seasonal addition to any room! This is one of my very favorites.
