Tuesday Happenings

Technically, this is a Monday Happening.  I stitched it yesterday and have been sort of looking it ever since.  I'm sure it's meant to be a snowflake.

Still, it induces studying stares.  This will most definitely need backstitching of some type, but where?  Connect the dots somehow?  Just stitch around each one?  I may have to just sit down with some graph paper and play.

Today, things are much clearer.  And cuter.

A couple of Nativity scenes got unpacked yesterday, and when I pulled this piece out, I wondered 

"Why is the Holy Mother holding a peanut?"  I knew it wasn't a peanut, of course, but the carving sure makes it look like it is.
