Embroidery Hoopla R3 - OTT Edition Gallery

[schnerby]

Oh my goodness. This gallery rocks.
I love the pocket watch, and the coffee and the little animal in a suit and... who am I kidding I'm loving them all.

So much awesome going on here! The racoon in a suit and the octopus with a monacle are on my wists now 

And those rock, paper, scissor, lizard, Spock symbols look familiar... http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=326055.0

I can't believe how the gallery exploded yesterday! So much to admire... The pocketwatch and the gears cross stitch have to go on my wists! I loved the little rat with a flower inside. The raccoon and owl both show an amazing amount of skill. This is one very impressive gallery!

The pocketwatch is amazing!

I really love the coffee/caffeine hoop as well!  Wisted that one!

Fabulous work ladies!  They are coming in too fast to comment on them all, but each one is a tiny work of art!!!  I would be thrilled to have any (all) of them on my hoopla wall!!

I agree that it is simply impossible to comment on every wonderful hoop in this gallery but you all just bowl me over with your talent.  This swap whipped my butt.  I had a very hard time with the tiny space, and I really didn't think I would. 

My daughter agreed to take my hoops to the post office near hear work today, then walked right out without them.  She has promised to grab them after work and take them for me so I should be sending dc's this evening.

I love my hoop!!! Isn't it beautiful? Any Firefly fans out there? Icebyrd67 did a fabulous job!

Seriously, if a man walks down the street in a hat like that you know he isn't afraid of anything.

It is beautifully done - the stitching is incredibly tiny in my tiny little hoop and I love the pom pom.

OMG. Sorry for the netspeak, but you got a Jayne Hat!!! I'm totally going to wist that now. I really need to do a piece with one of my favorite River quotes "I can kill you with my brain." Or "Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal." There are just so many good quotes to choose from.

I've been away from this thread for a few days and holy crap it's exploded! I'm only on page 39!

Have you seen the patterns at cthulhucrochet? They have cross stitch instructions for all the chars from firefly and the cutest christmas ornaments, all in the Jayne hat:

I love the penguin in the Jayne hat! And the Jayne character is too adorable for words!

You know you're evil right? Truly and deeply evil? Not once in my entire adult life have I ever wanted to try cross stitch. It was the one fiber related hobby that I've never liked. Now, I'm going to have to cross stitch the cast of firefly. Add in the Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock cross stitch I saw, and I think I just became a cross stitcher.

that coffee hoop inspired me!  I knew I was going to make a friend a coffee embroidery, but now  I'm adding the caffeine molecule thingy too!  she'll love it  

every hoop in the last 3 pages has been awesome too. great work everyone!  It's getting really hard to keep up!
