needle and fork

Although I did a lot of other things
ánd I didn't sign up for Jude's "Magic Cloth" series ...
needle and thread have started itching again
( not literally ofcourse )

Add to that the wonderful scraps from Connie ...

I just started with some pieces and let it grow on it's own
.....
an idea is already forming in my mind to where it may lead
( about 28 x 28 cm  now ... )

Our wonderful daughter, a great cook,
was asking, when I spoke to her on the phone yesterday :
"shall I cook dinner for you tomorrow ?"

Well, ofcourse we said :
"Yes !!!"


So for me it was no cooking dinner tonight,
just eating and enjoying it !

( "Chicken under the hat"
pie with aubergine (eggplant), courgette (zucchini), chicken (but we had it
with veggie-replacement), ginger, spices and ....cherries ! )

  4. I just love those little roots and how you could 'see' a fish or two in there swimming. I look forward to seeing how the folds on the left will be handled. And even circles for dinner...perfect!
