Winter colour

I’m overdue with the mosaics from last month’s Making Winter festivities. It’s rather a grey day here today so some cheerful colour was needed. Thankyou so much to all who have been reading, commenting, flickring and blogging so far this season. 
I’m collecting together all the lovely wintry recipes that have been posted and will be putting them onto a separate page to visit during emergencies or when comfort baking is required.
The next week of seasonal creativity will begin over at Thriftyhousehold on Monday 20th February. There will be no particular theme – it will simply be a record of the good things about this time of year.

    What lovely colourful pics – enough to warm the cockles of my heart! I am not sure it's reaching my feet though – they are freezing even with two pairs of socks on . . .

    My goodness, you have some talented friends, Mrs. S! I am especially in love with the hat/mittens and the pointy slippers.

    Thank you for that burst of color on a grey day.

    Thank you for some much needed colour. I am feeling a bit weary of the cold weather at the moment and wishing Spring was here, so i needed your post!

    How exciting, I'd love a kiln too, not that I'd know what to do with it but I can imagine!
    Thanks for including my daisies again. Such lovely inspirational ideas in the group and this is the best time of year for making things I find, the rest of the year is better for doing things!
