Russell Crowe's band

This idea popped into my head one day after checking out Subversive Cross Stitch. I found a random cross stitch lettering generator online and got my text, and designed the 'shit' myself. (Not often you can claim you've 'designed' a shit, right?)

The quote is from the Frenzal Rhomb song 'Russell Crowe's Band'. I stitched it off and on for ages and ended up finishing in time for the birthday of a friend who is a big Frenzal Rhomb fan, so I've sent it off and am hoping she loves it!



Hyperbole and a Half

Seems I just keep finding completed projects, here is my stitched Alot.

From Hyperbole and a Half, "The Alot is an imaginary creature that I made up to help me deal with my compulsive need to correct other people's grammar.  It kind of looks like a cross between a bear, a yak and a pug".

I love this Alot. I made the pattern myself but obviously the artwork is not mine. Follow the link above to Hyperbole and a Half for more awesome and strange drawings and stories.

Treat Jar



The Armor etch came out again tonight, this time to make a treat jar for my beautiful (and well behaved) dog Soko. After putting on the floor to get a good picture she waited patiently for her reward - chicken treats!
