My mother is amazing and obsessed with crafts and so this Christmas she gave me free roam of the craft closet and permission to take anything that I could fit in my suitcase. One of the things I ended up with were three tea towels with a stripe of cross stitching fabric. I figured that those would be really fun things to try my hand at with these samplers. Now I am sad that I only took three! I might end up asking her to send me more. Tell me what you think.
I also tried to make the back really neat since you never know when someone might turn it around and heaven forbid someone see a rat's nest of threads. I am personally amazed with myself. As long as this is washed gently than it shouldn't fall apart.
Who cross stitches skulls and crossbones? ME! I love it! People right now are so obsessed with swine flu and so I thought it would be funny to demand that you wash your hands.I think that the next one I will work on will have little pig faces but I can't figure out what I am going to write on it. I am also thinking that I might try selling these on etsy. I don't have my own account. I will have to think about it.
Sincerely,
I thought that I would start with something small...since I'm not that committed of a person. I also feel like apologising for the state her bow is in. She got into a fight with another angel. If you think that looks bad, you should see the other angel! :0
Now that she is up for all to see...I've become very critical of my work. Her hair is messy. The bow is crazy, but none the less I know that when I am 35 and decorating the tree with my family I will put her on and say, "I made that 14 years ago." and my children will "ohh" and "ahh" at my genius.
