Sake me...

♥ Ceri makes...  had a fun filled evening with my lovely friend Kate at a Red Letter Days YO! Sushi Sake Experience at the YO! Sushi Market Place branch.  It kicked off with making our own sake cocktails,  with some help I whipped up a YO! Sakuri, a yummy combination of honey umeshu,  cherry blossom liqueur,  lychee juice,  ginger and soda. 


  The cocktails were followed by endless shots of sake...

 
...and endless plates of delicious sushi.  Ten out of ten to Red Letter Days YO! Sushi sake experience.

I heart wool...

♥ Ceri makes...  made a delightful discovery yesterday on a shopping trip in Bath with MummyB.  A lovely wool shop tucked down Old Orchard St  (...behind M&S!)  called simply 'Wool'.  


 The shop is well stocked with beautiful wools and yarns perfect for any project,  the super friendly staff will also happily order in wools free of charge.  If you fancy a bit of chit chat while you knit pop along to the knitting club on Wednesday's from 6-9pm.

Keeping warm with some Patchworking...

♥ Ceri makes...  has been very glad of the patchwork blanket I made in the summer,  it is SO very cold at the moment here in London!  Climbing into bed is much more appealing with this extra layer...




Patchworking is a great way to use up scraps of fabric that have been left over from old projects or if you prefer a more co-ordinated look just select three or four complimentary prints.  Lots of shops sell fat quarters of fabric which are ideal for patchworking,  however my top tip is that it is still often cheaper to just buy the fabric straight from the roll!
