Blooming Love...

Short and sweet this week, as another season came upon us, so work became the main focus.

The floral blooms have slowly but surely been growing off the hook,


I have a great little bundle of pink flowers now but still a few more to make to be able to fill the edges of the cushion...



The mood flowers are still continuing. I delve into my huge bin bag of mixed yarns and pick out what takes my fancy or epitomises my mood that day.


I'm getting quite used to mixing up three different colours that I wouldn't normally put together, or picking colours that I don't really like, because the overall effect of a complete mixture of colours is just a beautiful sea of tones that blend together with no one colour that jumps out, nothing seems to clash, just colours fusing together...
I'm a little bit behind but hoping to catch up this week.

Didn't get much time to celebrate Valentines, but grabbed a couple of hours together in the evening. We ordered a take away,


and hubby completely spoilt me by getting tickets to see Cats in London. So excited. It's not really his cup of tea, which makes his efforts even more special...


Love him to bits....

  2. Your pink flowers look so pretty. How lovely for your OH to treat you to tickets for Cats. I'm sure there will be lots of yarn shops to visit so you can add to your stash :)
