I DECIDED THAT ..

... to-day I would make the February block in the snowman B-O-T-M ... this is what it SHOULD  look like ..


I blame Woman's Hour on Radio 4 for the fact that mine ended up looking like this ..


I have one too many rows above the window! NO WAY was I going to undo and then add on the cream bottom border!! SO.. I went off and made a couple of banana loaves ...


HEY it works for me!! lol x THEN I sat and looked at it for a bit .... and now my block looks like this ...


it went from ggggmmmmm ! to ahhhhh xx ...WELL who wants to be the same as everyone else ? lol x

Hope you have had a good day x

Keep smiling

I like yours even better than the original. And a tall house is always a good thing - for tall people anyway.

Don't you just hate these estates where very house looks the same :) Love what you have done with yours. You have also just reminded me to go and bake a banana loaf

Hey, love the snow on your cabin. Do you mind if I do similar on my cabin? The snow really does jazz it up!
