Snowflakes in 80 degree weather

So this was my contribution the the Holiday Softies Awards in the Let it Snow catagory.  I’m wondering about writing up this pattern, it took me forever to figure out the snowflake, it’s just not my thing, and I’m amazed at how easily some others whip them out.  I totally procrastinated with this too! I got it in around an hour before the deadline, because I didn’t actually figure out the snowflake until this afternoon, I don’t know why, but multiples of 6’s confuse the heck out of me and I just don’t like to think about them.

I’ve made a butterfly pattern, and a little ladybug/bird pattern but I’m not done embellishing them yet, so technically I’m not completely done.  I’ve been the queen of procrastinating lately, there’s been some family issues with an imminent death that’s kind of overshadowing everything right now, and it’s the first one in my humongous family that’s going to be someone who I grew up around, someone who has directly and indirectly influenced major events and memories in my life.
