Making My Mark

I seldom mark quilts but as I thought about the background where snow and snowflakes are falling... I wanted to keep it simple and suggest a graceful downfall ... so spaced graceful curvy vertical lines going from the top of the quilt to the bottom snow seemed a good plan.  Because this is a distance and I would surely get confused where things where already as I worked... I did some thin chalk markings top to bottom with some curves passing behind or through other elements...like large snowflakes... or snow drops. I LOVE that Sewline skinny chalk pencil.
 This is kind of funny actually.. this is the most simple looking quilting but had a good bit of start / stop time.
