Zombies, Pinups, Skateboarding, Dirty Cross stitch

Yea, I guess since I only do "popular" things I thought this week I would spice it up some.. But WARNING LALALAURREN, I will show the other item I sent in your package, so you may want to stop here til you get it.. If not you have been warned.. muhahhaa..


Okay first thing's first.. Zombies.. God who doesn't love zombies? If you don't don't answer that! Because I do.. George Romero is one of my favorite directors because of his cheesy zombie movies. Plus if you have never checked out Martin, it was one my favorite movies ever! It is not zombie related however, but vampire related.




I am going totally off the topic, but I guess I am getting personal here.. I mean I am a girl that loves zombies.. I do have a zombie tattoo.. you could consider me a zombie geek. So this is only my second time using like a tshirt fabric.. This one did not turn out as great as the Eve Tanktop, but reguardless I love it for the idea alone.. and the zombies! If you do hate zombies than you will love the back of this tshirt.


tshirt is a medium for $30 @ my shop



Now for the pinup.. which I think is my favorite thing to do ever! LaLaLaLaurren ordered something from me, the peeping tom piece.. well I decided it was wayyy too cool for another crafter to purchase something so expensive without throwing in something very awesome along with it. So I did her another Sailor Jerry style pinup.. this one not framed.. but with the same fabric, color and all. So I hope she gets them safely and loves them!






The next piece is so weird I had to buy them.. Plus if you know anything about me, you know I use to "attempt" at skateboarding.. That I grew up in the home of Jamie Thomas, if you don't know who that is just think Zero Skateboards.. I also spent my very wholesome youth hanging out with wholesome skateboarders, who'da thought those exist right? Nah, I am from Alabama.. there are the troubled youth and the good youth. I was part of the good youth, still am to an extent.




So when I saw that Sublime Stitching did some patterns with their local skateboarder Michael Sieben, outta Austin TX, I had to endulge myself.. And I can't wait to do some more of his art, because it is more art like than basic embroidery. DON'T get me wrong, I just bought some retro patterns and I am really excited to try them, but art is really cool adapted into another art form, embroidery.

Now for what is expected of me.. another dirty cross stitch. The bisexuals out there will appreciate this one! So one of all time favorite shows is Strangers with Candy. It should have never been canceled!! So that show is great, Amy Sedris and Steven Colbert were two of the creators and writers.. LOVE THEM BOTH! So this piece is kinda like a piece of my heart.. for real! So if you have never seen the show its about a 47 year-old recovering drug out who goes back to school, the same school she dropped out of to become a junkie whore. It really makes fun of shows like Saved by the Bell, which kill me if that is on.. it is just as bad as the Brady Bunch.. ugh! Stangers with Candy is very unpolitical correct, racist, sexual and brassy.. I love it but I do realize why it got canceled.

This piece is intitled " I like the pole and the hole" Notice the dried up flower.. kinda like Jerry Blank returning to high school.. haha

i am not that quick.. i don't do the insanely huge cross stitches you do, which i wouldn't have the patience for anyway.. so i think you are comparing apples to oranges.. we are both fruits thought ;) and there should be tons of zombies out there.. sheesh catch up guys!
