Embroidery

Lately I too have gotten really into embroidery. It started with an article from "Bust" magazine, and then I just went crazy from there. I embroidered my initials on my GSC jacket, and I am in the process of embroidering a whole bunch of other things (Elvis, a skeleton, peas, a bug-person playing a trumpet, etc.). Here is a scan of the first pillow case I made:

And here are some photos of the second pillow case I am making which will say "ten more minutes" in a font that looks way cooler than it does in thes photo:

Me and Megan were also just having a really fun time taking these. WA house forever!

Update: here are two pictures of the text I plan to embroider on two other pillow cases:

6 photos

1. I recently went the the decorative arts museum and saw this cubist clock. You can also see the top half of my room is oddly shaded.

2. This picture also shows the weird thing that is going on with lighting in my room. My light bulb went out and I was asked if I wanted a lot of light or a little light. I said a lot of light but because the the lampshade is metal mesh, the top half of my room is shadowed.

3. We don't have plastic bags at my house so when I pack my lunch I wrap everything in tinfoil

4. This is the building I live in. My apartment is in the second column from the left. This photo makes it look like I live in the middle of nowhere, but really I just live next to a park.

5. We went on an excursion outside of Prague. This is Cesky Krumlov:

6. On that excursion, I also spent three days weaving. Now I'm working on embroidering my weaving.
