Post Comment Love 9 - 11 January

Hello there, Happy New Year and welcome to the first #PoCoLo of the year - a relaxed, friendly linky which I co-host with Suzanne, where you can link any blog post published in the last week. We know you’ll find some great posts to read, and maybe some new-to-you blogs too, so do pop over and visit some of the posts linked, comment and share some of that love.

Please don’t link up posts which are older as they will be removed, and if you see older posts are linked then please don’t feel that it’s necessary to comment on those. If you were here last week it was great to have you along, if you’re new here we’re pleased you’ve joined us.

It’s been a chilly few days here, for more than one reason - the weather, and temperamental heating, which we’re still in the process of getting fixed, and more weather on the way with Storm Goretti due to arrive Thursday evening.

I’ve taken the opportunity to pick up a longterm work in progress crochet project, which is at the very unfulfilling stage of having its ends sewn in and then pieced together. I’m on the last small section, so there is light at the end of the tunnel, but oh so many ends to sew in - it’s not my favourite task that’s for sure!

I hope that wherever you are the weather behaves, have a good week.

It’s been a busy week this week with both my sewing group and patchwork groups meeting. At the latter we all set out to make some folded fabric Scandinavian Stars, and the end results were worth it. But boy, there was plenty of head scratching and doubting ourselves along the way!

I realised the next morning that I’ve unintentionally chosen colours that coordinate with my kitchen sofa, and while now this means there is likely to be more Scandinavian Stars in my future I don’t think it will be before this Christmas!

This is the last linky of 2025, we’ll be back on Friday 9 January. Thank you for being here this year, and both Suzanne and I wish you a very merry festive season, however you celebrate and we look forward to welcoming you back early next year.

Happy Christmas!

Thanks for your good wishes last week, they have worked and my cold seems to have turned a corner. I feel less washed out, and haven’t needed to cancel things this week and managed to head back to my usual exercise classes, though opting for a Reformer Pilates class rather than a Yoga session, as I still wasn’t that sure that putting my head upside down would be a good thing!

It’s also been good to see some sun again - and feel its warmth - after lots of rain and a good few grey days. I did smile as I stepped out the back door though and noticed that the new olive tree seems to have found the sliver of sunlight, which I think can only be a good thing.

Have a great week.
