Thanks for sharing this! I always wanted to learn how to make a snowflake. I might try it with fabric. When I do I will share a picture here.

Its easy :) just fold a tortilla in half, in half again, and then into a little "pizza slice" shape. Then you can
A. Bite out the parts you dont want
or
B. (not as much fun as A) use boring old scissors to cut the tortilla.

MAN I am hungry...
