    I agree with Mary Anna about Ligia's shamrocks. They look great! :D :thumbup:

    Not only do they look great I am wondering if you would share how you did yours so that I can copy! I really like the "movement" in them!

    Wow - they're all looking great!! I love what everyones done so far!!

    I gave up after attempting to make my first snowflake.... it came out either a 1/4 or 1/2" too small for some reason! I am so not use to working with such tiny pieces!
    But now after seeing all of yours, I think I'm going to give it another try!
    :)

    Mary Anna, Sharon M and Daisyboo9 here is how I made the row:

    I draw a chubby heart shape ; repeated it on double side fusible web 3 times for each shamrock. Stems were cut from fusible leftovers between heart shapes. Fused hearts on a 4.5 strip of background fabric and machine appliqued.
    I set the pieces at random - distance between each other, position and distance from top/border - to get movement.
    Thanks for asking.

    PS: I fuse the web on fabric before piecing the shapes ... :)

    MollieSue, do give it another try. If I can do it anyone can. I finally had to admit the snowflakes weren"t perfect but unique
