Saturday update

So here's how far I got on Saturday - apologies for the poor staging of the pictures - but it's absolutely freezing outside (literally), and I've just got in from work - I thought I'd get these uploaded and worry about picture composition later.....

Like when it warms up.

If it ever does.

As you can see, I've done 5 of the 6 triangles - just one to go.




and they can be arranged in a number of different ways, depending on how you feel:




I had hoped to get in tonight and start to quilt these up, so that they would be done for Christmas - but seriously - it's so cold right now that I think the next place for me is bed, tucked up with a cup of tea and a good book.

I'm out late twice a week at my Spanish class, and Mr Z&Z comes to meet me afterwards, to cadge a lift home, so by the time we open the front door, the house has been sitting cold and neglected for over 14 hours. And that's when you notice the cold.

We had a plumber around yesterday to talk through putting in radiators / upgrading what we have. He gave us a reasonable price, said it would be a straightforward job - and then said that it would be February at the earliest!!

Mr Z&Z and I really do need to start planning ahead.
