These Pretzels ... Are Making Me THIRSTY!!! [With "pattern" on pg 4]

[tanechka]

heehee 

The hubby and I recently finished watching all the seasons of Seinfeld, so this called for a tribute to our marathon. Inspired of course by: http://www.flickr.com/photos/rubykhan/2811826948/ I didn't lahv the original minipop version of Seinfeld (http://www.flipflopflyin.com/minipops/ ) so I came up with my own 

I'm not sure if it's complete yet, I think I will cross stich some pretzels in the corners. It is 11 count Aida, I think. All I had on hand at the moment





Thankyou for looking! Comments and criticism always appreciated

That rocks so much!!  You did a really good job. Now I want one for myself!

[digital misfit]

LOL Love it!
I want one with "they're real and they're spectacular!" 

[cross_my_hooks]

Oh I love it! I have never had the patience for Needle point....you did great

[MrXStitch]

This.
Kicks.
Ass!
 
Jerry is adopting his best "What's that all about?" pose!
I love the rendition of George as well - he looks so frustrated! 

[tanechka]

wow, thankyou everyone 

This.
Kicks.
Ass!

George is getting FRUSTRATED!!! I hard a hard time choosing between the two lol.


If anyone is interested I can put up the pattern I created. You can also see how many other versions of each character I made too haha.

This was supposed to be a valentine's pressie for the hubbie, but he caught me in the act when he came home from work early  He loves it though, w00t!

**edit: Someone did render the original minipop Seinfeld into cross stitch: http://www.flickr.com/photos/8001292@N06/3003966153/

This rocks!  You are so awesome.  Great job!

[kittykill]

OMG! This is so awesome! I say this all the time.

[kiyaani_girl]

Love kramer's highwaters and hair, so cool!!

[Listessa]

Awesome job! 
I love Seinfeld so this really caught my attention.  Great idea to give Kramer the cigar, and I always liked Elaine's hair like that too. 

[beelisty]

i think it's great-- but if you add some pretzels like you mentioned, i think that would make it perfect!

[LiveLongandCraft]

Haha. Love this. I just saw this episode recently.

[sikamikanica]

This is my favorite of all Seinfeld quotes and you did an excellent job!

May I say, I especially like George, you captured his essence.

[BendyBones]

So awesome!

[beefranck]

lol'd at my desk.    Awesome!

[Muddlepud]

Ha! Awesome! Nicely done.

[DaringToBeGreat]

This is like the best thing I've ever seen in my entire life! Seinfeld is one of the most quotable shows ever and this is one of my favorites! Great job

BTW: I think that pretzels around the border would be wicked awesome.

[wildanimus]

Really, really great work!  It took me a minute to figure out what Kramer was holding, but I realized it was a cigar pretty quickly.  A pretzel in each corner would really make it awesome - go for it! 

[bennysmom]

Wow!!!
I just love your cross-Stitch!!! You should really post your pattern.

[litebrite1919]

i knew what it was right away!!! i love it!!!

wow

awesome

[VALiant]

This rocks so hard!

[jillvedge]

I love this so much, this is my favorite quote from Seinfield!!!!

[Meggers]

That is so unbelievably awesome!

[mlheran]

HAHAHA, awesome! Great line and fabulous work!

[tanechka]

wow, thankyou so much everyone! 

i had a blast making it, kept giggling every few minutes 

jerry was the hardest create  i just couldn't get the hair right! i'm still meh about jer, but very proud of 'lainey, kosmo and georgie boy lol

i am so thrilled that everyone is noticing the details: george's frustration, jerry's girly arms akimbo, elaine's hair and kramer's highwaters! 

thankyou so much for looking, and commenting!

oh and this is the pretzel pattern that i'm considering stitching into all four corners, and then doing some old-style cross stitch borders in between horizontally and vertically ... but hmmmm  i might come up with my own "pretzels" border cuz this one's too big, it might overwhelm:

Great job!

[tanechka]

I'm hitting THIS ROCKS and waiting anxiously for your take on Soup Nazi!

Great job!

LOL! That made my day  Will come up with a pattern if you want, but I seriously need to finish off old projects first rather than embark on new ones. And no, I've been naughty and not finished the borders on this baby. Life has temporarily interrupted crafting needs  I thought this would have been relegated to 2nd page by now, but it's still around! Thankyou everyone!

Oh and here's the "pattern"  :
