Cosy Times

Hello lovely blog friends....it's been a week of cosiness here.....taking a few pictures in my sewing room....

.......lot of candles, lamplight, quilts and cushions....and a few christmas decorations appearing....

.........tasty treats were baked for last weekend but no pictures were taken of them....i was too busy and then it was mostly all eaten....though here is just one little treat i made....chocolate cinnamon crumble squares from bbc good food.....very yummy.....

....we went on an outing to chester.........here are some photos of the day......

.....feeling very festive and it suddenly turned very cold too........

......... a favourite (very) old pub.......such amazing historic buildings in chester....always love to look at them even though i've been doing so all my life.....

..........and the lovely river view when the sun came out as we walked along the groves.....

.........river boat approaching (it's called the lady diana) and the bandstand in the foreground where we have often enjoyed music being played......after this we went to a cafe for tea and cake and a nice chat....

............at home again and here is my little toadstool house from our half term outing to the pottery cafe.....i secretly love this very much ;).......

..........this is a gorgeous fabric stack of new tilda windy days fat quarters.......this time i didn't wait to cut it up but launched straight in to make.......

...........this quilt.....featuring the little dog walking ladies in economy blocks......and lots of nine patches.....lots more pictures of this to come as i hand quilt it......the fabrics are delightful and create such a cosy effect......

.........thank you for visiting me here dear readers....and for your sweet thoughtful comments......i hope all my american friends had a very happy thanksgiving.....wishing you a wonderful cosy week ahead.....take care and stay safe lovelies.........back soon xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
