Hi everyone!
Crikey it's been a long time since I was on here. While I have been stitching, because I'm a bit of a bonehead, I keep forgetting to take pictures of the pieces before I send them to other people...  Roll Eyes

But today I remembered! But I've only got one picture. Hey ho.
I decided to stitch this for a new tattoo parlour that opened near me. It's a bit of wisdom I found in another parlour, and I got my good buddy Beefranck to help me concoct a pattern based on the phrase. I had a little help with the stitching as part of it was done by Alien Ted who came to visit, but all in all I'm quite happy with it.



I hope to get a picture of it in situ sometime soon and will post it here as well.
