Sewing
- I finished the Badger cushion - one Christmas present crossed off the list. It is backed in the same Tula Pink fabric as the borders, has a concealed zip and bound in another Tula Pink fabric from the same range.
- They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, so I made a block that two of my favourite, most inspiring sewers (Rachel and Amanda) have been making lately. It finishes at about 6"square. If anyone knows what this block is called, please let me know.
Reading:
- Cold Glory by B. Kent Anderson. A modern day thriller set in America with a bit of Civil War mystery thrown in. A good read.
- Sisters of Treason by Elizabeth Fremantle. Another great novel set in the turbulent Tudor period.
Cooking:
- Honey Mustard and Lemon Sausages. I saw this on Nigel Slater's television show, Simple Suppers, so thought I would try it for a nice warming winters meal. It is cooking as I write this.
Listening:
- My One and Only Thrill from Melody Gardot
Hoping you all had a fabulous weekend too.
