Morning all.

I'm fine thanks CK especially now I've realised I hadn't gone blind this morning when I got in the car but there really was a frost covering the windscreen )))))))))) winter (((((((((.

Must be time for piccy's of daft goggie snoods from you again if it's this cold already

[bitsnknots]

Morning all.  It's frosty here as well Stan.  I expected it here last night as it was mighty cold then.  So cold in fact, I put the car down the drive behind the gates where it is more sheltered.  I had a quick look at the car whilst I was doing the breakfast and the front windscreen is frosty but the rest of the car seems alright.  Also, our road doesn't look frosty so I think that it's an air frost as opposed to a ground frost here.  Hope that everyone stays safe whatever the weather is.

Morning all .....

It was frosty here earlier but now the sun is shining although there is still a nip in the air....

I've been busy making cushion covers,just got to make the pads to fit then I'll post a picture.....

[stan3502]

They are stunning twishy and am sure she will be over the moon with them , nice to see you have kitty help for any loose ends wheres the other one is he raiding the cat biscuits while your backs turned

[twishy123]

Thank you......She loves Rhubarb's work as much as I do so she will be thrilled with them ..

and Kendal was killing my foot as I took the photos.....they are so different it's difficult to believe they are brothers sometimes..

[ilove2patch]

Fabulous. So is the kitty. Lovely sunny day here but chilly.

[**towery**]

fab work by  rhubarb

i'd be scared to  use them

[merc1_clocks]

Fabby cushions twishy...& rhubarb's work is as always, amazing !

I'd be scared to use them too...I is a bit clumsy

[captainbovine]

me too Merc, I have knitted arran ones on the sofa and no one is allowed to touch them!!

they are stunning Twishy, as always Rhubarb's crafting is amazing, I found something she sent me yesterday, it was an old map of this area and she'd embroidered it with a lovely message, I need a frame for it.

lovely kitty too! have to get in on the action don't they?

the sun is shining here and it's just thrown a load of hailstones down!!!!!!

off to work out how to make antlers for some reindeer felty things....this is difficult

[bitsnknots]

Afternoon all. Lovely cushions Twishy and Rhubarb.

We have had a rain shower as well CB but I think we had our hailstones yesterday morning and it was awful.  It's still on the cool side here and a little bit blowy.  I dread winter coming.

Bit late now I spose, but I think you can buy brown pipe cleaners can't you?   Or you could make them with brown wool and florist wire like I made the bathing belles hair. 

[twishy123]

Oooooh I has some brown pipe cleaners if you want them Capt?.......

[notgrumpyreally]

You mean you've got chocolate on some don't you.

[bitsnknots]

I think that is exactly what she means Grumpy.

I am in the process of knitting a cardigan for Grace for Christmas.  I only started it last night so when I finished it, I'll post a piccie.  The cardigan is to go with a dress we've bought her as well.  She'll be getting a few more bits on 29th December as that's when she'll be three.  It doesn't seem two minutes since she was born.

[twishy123]

SSHHHHHHHH.........I've licked most of the choklit off so they are a nice even colour....
