I have been cranking out embroideries like crazy in the past couple weeks! Between trying to restock my shops, and crafting for swaps, it think my fingers may fall off! Anyhow here are just a few of the ones i have finished within the past couple weeks-

I love this one. Catching fireflies in my grandparents yard during the summer is one of my favorite memories




Here's a jelly i made for an OWS swap-




And this one was made by request. I really like how the bacon came out, lots of texture



Thanks for looking! Hope you like!

Has anyone else had this problem? I used a water soluble ink pen, on one of my embroideries (that i have spent MANY hours on now) and it wont come off! when i put water on it, the blue ink disappears at first but but comes back later even worse. It just keeps spreading! I dont know what to do, i am scared to ruin the piece. Anyone have this happen before? Help!

Still Life With Woodpecker is my favorite book and i have always wanted to embroider the cover. Finally got around to it-






Here it is with my well worn copy to compare-



I am pretty happy with it

Here is my newest crass-stitch!

When I was stitching this on a plane, an older gentleman tapped me on the shoulder and said, "I really like your artwork". I figured he probably hadn't seen what it actually said, but then he followed it up with, "I know a lot of people like that" Haha! I think everybody knows a squirrely motherfucker or two

Seems like its been a while since a posted a new embroidery, so here is one i finished the other night. not too origional, but fun none the less.





it was a vintage pattern that i put my own twist on








thanks for looking at my cock!

Heres my newest embroidery. Yay for tea!
This was a bit different for me because i am always hesitant to use fill stitches. I didnt know where/how to start with them. Well, i did it, and it took me ages. I will have to keep practicing with it because it doesnt look nearly as nice as all the lovely fill work i have seen done by all the super talented crafters on here. Oh well, its a start!

This took me quite a while to make, and the whole time i was wondering if anyone else would appreciate it. Ha ha! That tends to happen a lot when i am executing of of my ridiculous ideas for needlework....... Anyhow, this was a kit that i altered to please my perverted mind. Hope you like.

I have been meaning to stitch this up for a while. I finally got to it yesterday. Dropping beets yo....










Thanks for looking!

I saw this written on a bathroom wall. It may have come from somewhere else originally, but it was the first time i'd ever heard it, and i thought it was pretty darn funny. So, i stitched this up today as an attempt to avoid packing for my upcoming move to ohio. i am really good at procrastinating.

hey there!  i will be moving from NY to OH in a couple weeks, and i am looking to tap into a crafty community there. i will be living in a little town called Mechanicsburg, outside of Columbus. anyone have any suggestions for great crafty shops there, or a good crafting group, or even just someone awesome i should meet? thanks for any comments/suggestions!
