A Little Stitching and Some Cookies

Gentle Friends just a quick update on "Thy Needle" - I really like the way so few floss colours are used so well in this piece.  Although it may difficult to see in the snap, the slight variations are really nice....


... the linen is a nice grey shade but continues to photograph brownish - go figure.

Sunday I pulled together a nice bar cookie recipe I found at "Simply Savvy Recipes" -  here's a snap.....


... a most excellent cookie, a bit chewy with a great chocolate/peanut butter taste!!  I'll get the link up tomorrow, but there are lots of variations out there on the Internet for this cookie - and it was super easy to make!!

That's about it for today sports fans - thanks for stopping by, do stop again!!

Take care,
edgar

  9. The cookies look yummy! Your needle piece is coming along nicely. Frustrates me something awful when the colors don't show up correctly in a photo. I wish I was a better photographer!
