Where Does Time Go?

Can you believe there are only 6 weeks until Christmas? 
 
Thought I'd do a little round up post of this weeks snaps, I have been busily making things for Laalaas Advent swap (but I can't show you those photos just yet.)
 

Crochet and coffee's and more new projects :)
 


Got this GoRgEoUs vintage yarn from ebay and whipped up this beautiful cowl I found on Annaboo's House in one day!
 


It's sooooooo cosy!
 


A trip to the park.  The oak is still hanging onto it's greenery!
 


Beautiful berries
 

 
And crunchy leaves
 


This sweet little bird is now a regular visitor to our garden
 


Stunning pink skies have led to........
 


Amazing frosts
 


 A spot of baking - Tiramisu (hubby's favourite!)
 


And this scrummy Irish Tea Cake - courtesy of Fiona at Raindrops and Daisies
 


And the last of the flowers in our little garden
 



 
Hope you've all had a super lovely week?

  4. It always seems to go from plenty of time to eek, a few weeks, or maybe it's just my general lack of organisation! Loving the cowl :) x

  16. Love the cowl! Just getting into cowls myself, I seem to get to work in a morning and my neck refuses to let go of it so I just wear it all day. Very comforting! Lovely autumnal snaps too - that bird needs a name now he's a regular ;) x

  17. What a lot of beautiful pictures!
    That cowl looks nice and so do you ;-).
    In Holland we celebrate " Saint Nicolas" first, on December the 5th, the man's birthday. After that we start thinking of Christmas;
    a lot later then in most countries!
    Love from Mirjam.

  24. Time goes fast when you are having fun and using our crochet hook is fun! :-) Love your cowl. I made one too when I saw it on Annaboo's blog. Still have to show it but wanted to show it with the purse I am also making of the same yarn.

    Love your EB mug! I started collecting them but then went over to Brixton. Now they are no longer for sale anywhere in Holland. Such a shame...

    Hugs from Holland ~

  26. The cowl is very pretty. You are so talented. These pictures are lovely, and I especially like the pink in the clouds. The Irish tea cake looks so delicious. It kind of looks like our Christmas fruit cake here.

  29. The cowl looks great on you! I enjoy wearing them as well. When it get colder I love to wrap them around my head too, so that my ears don't get cold.

    The photo's from the park look lovely.

    Happy weekend!

  32. Im just getting into the "making things for Christmas" mode - Ive got 4 bloggy swaps on the go (I know - Im a crazy lady!!) and then family and friends to make for.... but now OFSTED have left the building (woop!!) I might actually have some "me" time to get on with crafting!

    The cowl is lovely, I so want to make one but will probably wait until the Christmas hols when I can actually make some things for me!!
