Slow Bloggers Linky

Can it really be December tomorrow?  Anyway, time to look back over November and take stock.  Here in the land of the slow blogger it has been a mixed month.  For the last week we have been living in chaos because we are having a new suite put in our tiny and previously horrid bathroom. This involves using a bucket to flush the loo and washing in a saucepan, so it's a bit like camping (just as cold too because the heating has to be off most of the time) but for some reason it's been quite good for productivity - it must be the adrenalin:-)


So, I have finished my bunting, and made a tutorial for Liberty brooches.  I also have two quilts in meaningful stages of progress and not on the back burner.

Other highlights of the month include falling backwards into a rosebush in front of my gardening group of small school children and shouting "Bollocks" really loudly.   What about you?!   If you would like to share a little creeping progress, and the events of your month, please do link up below.

  6. Love the liberty roses. The quilt top has lovely vibrant colours.

    I have been there with the bathroom situation. We did ours in the coldest February on record. It was an experience.

  8. I'm so slow these days that I'm not even getting around to a monthly round-up post. Boo! Hope your bath is done soon!

  9. Thanks for your comment Catherine, I think the problem is fixed now. If you were feeling mischievous, you could have told the kids that bollocks was a variety of rose you'd just stumbled upon! I love the folded flowers by the way.
