Heather’s challenge is to use the 7th anniversary material of wool on a project.  Additionally, she used stitching and a bit of die cut surgery to achieve a layered look.  I had to blow the dust off of my sewing machine, before attempting to try some stitching on my wool felt diecuts.  In fact, when I turned the machine on, my pressor foot fell off the machine into a couple of pieces.  It had been so long since I had my machine out, I had to dig out the manual to figure out how to put the pressor foot back together.  Eventually, I got the job done.  I also layered the diecuts I used, but limited the felt surgery to trimming the layers on one snowflake so that it appeared that I had three sizes of snowflakes instead of two.

I turned the snowflakes into embellishments on a sweater, using the Papertrey Ink sweater die.  The lovely wool felt is also from Papertrey Ink.  I am always happy with the way this wonderful wool felt cuts cleanly.
