I hate the Heat but not keen on it being too cold either, that's why a cool Autumn is nice. I'm also a crafter and that's what this blog will be mainly about.suzyredhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07772734640644594857noreply@blogger.comBlogger181100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6124757166265979966.post-83185228557697814662011-10-06T12:49:00.005+01:002011-10-06T13:05:09.439+01:00

Thought it was time to put another post on here, been doing a lot of felt stuff lately. Making an Advent Bag for a friend for Xmas probably not this Xmas as I'll not get time to do it all, Didn't think of it early enough, but doing well on it got about a third done. Doing Ornaments in most of the spaces and going for a couple of book marks too as she reads a lot. Also got an idea for a felt

Been raining like mad today heavy too, about time though we've had little rain this year and the farmers were complaining but last week or so we've had lots of it well more than recently anyway. Didn't mind as I didn't have to go out in it.

Getting on well with my new lap quilt in Crazy Quilting, is a little slow going because I'm doing an embroidery mask on the corner of all the outside squares, they take a little while to do. but I'm enjoying doing them.

This week I have seen loads of Butterflies, even the getting rare now days small Tortoiseshell, with many Peacocks and several Painted Ladies, also comma's and Gatekeepers, we have three Budleias in the garden so that might be the reason they just love them. Its nice to see them fluttering about we got loads of Small whites too, God help my Lettuce though.

We had snow recently but nothing like the snow the south got, we had a couple of days last week where it settled but only a cm or so, it snowed in the night a few times but was gone by the morning. It was not here long enough to take a photo. But they do say the worst is over now. Good for my Coventry friend who had loads of it. I would have liked photo's as they inspire me in my work.

Had a Doctor appointment today for my regular Blood test for my INR level, I take Warfarin so it has to be checked every two weeks, this week all went well some weeks it won't come out so they have to take it out the back of my hand instead of my elbow. This afternoon I finished a tree ornament I started a couple of days ago. I intend to make quite a few of these for next Xmas they are flat and

Its cold in here today as Hub is putting up a new light by the front door and has it open to plug in the drill, We did have a Solar one but there hasn't been enough sunlight to keep it powered up, so he's bought a nice lantern one that plugs in so he has had to drill the screw holes. Why do they do such things on the coldest day we've had in a while. Its like it has to be done now. He had the

Today we went to the garden centre and bought some more Xmas food - Not that we really needed more of it got enough for an army already but I'm a deep pit to fill and really need the sugar Mice they had as I always have some at Xmas and it does stop me making loads of them with a recipe I have, I only got three if I make them it would be many more which I would eat as Husband don't like them.
