Window Nook above a Snowy Courtyard

A deep window seat faces a courtyard where snow has settled on tiled roofs, branches and stone steps. Cushions in muted green, cream and burgundy fill the left side, while a chunky knitted throw spills across the seat. A steaming cup, a little lantern and a bowl of biscuits sit on the wooden sill, adding warm color to the cool view.

The frost on the glass makes delicate white branches that are easy to recognize once the edge pieces are sorted. Work from the dark window frame and the broad cushion shapes, then use the roof tiles to build the courtyard. The knitted loops, wood grain and soft snow shadows keep the pale sections varied. It is a gentle puzzle for a quiet afternoon.
