It’s my god-daughter’s birthday in November. I never forget the date. She was born on my birthday!
I think (???) she’ll be 10.
I like to make something extra special and I’m very pleased with how this make is going.
It is completely inspired by Patch’s hot water bottle cover

who was, in turn, inspired by Fox’s Lane granny square hottie.

Here are my squares

I’ve tried to go for Cath Kidston type colours.
Last night I completed the first side.

My daughter has already put in a request.
Love, Lucie x
how lovely! I have a furry hot water bottle cover and when I see it out the corner of my eye I always think that it’s a cat haha

A very tasty colour theme, and catchy title! Think I’ll be humming away about toasty toes for the rest of the day 🙂

Speaking of birthdays my daughter is on the same day as both of my sisters who are 3 years apart! X

It looks quite peppermint and Christmassy with the red and white…. A bit like candy canes.
