And one more just because I couldn't resist:

Sick Day

January 7th, 2010:

There's a winter snow storm going on outside and I'm inside on a sick day. I probably shouldn't/won't venture out today, which is kinda sad considering how lovely the snow makes everything look. On the other hand, I get to be lazy, snuggle with Sponge and catch up on Netflix.

Stay warm, kids!

A Late Christmas Present....

So, let me explain this piece....I made this for a very good friend of mine from college for Chrismas this year. We were in this class together called Great Ideas here we read books like Candide and Frankenstein and then discussed the philosophy behind those books...at 8:30 am! Our teacher was a character who often spit out little soundbites (I think) to see if we were paying attention. Well, one week we had to read The Communist Manifesto and at one point during our discussion (I'm sorry I can't recall exactly why we were on the topic of Jesus) our teacher said, "...so it's like, Jesus was the first socialist, which is...problematic." My friend and I burst out laughing in the middle of class. To this day it's one of our many inside jokes, so I felt that I should immortalize it in embroidery. :)

Tura Santana

I finally finished the Tura Santana addition to my Badasses Drinking Through Straws series. She took a while because I was having a hard time with the size of the pop bottle she's drinking from. Eventually I got over it and just finished the piece.





So far in the series we have:
-Darth Vader
- Napolean
- Pam Grier as Coffy
- Genghis Kahn
And now Tura.
Next up is Queen Elizabeth drinking from a juice box.
