How strange it is

Stitched by mel.sundquist

I'm loving this quote from a Neutral Milk Hotel song, very gorgeously embroidered by Mel. Her embroidery is based on a print by Fionn Breen. Beautiful work, Mel!

I feel like this today

Makes me feel better to see it captured in stitches...

And what lovely stitches! I love how the words are connected. :-)

A Present For You!

And, a gift from us to you, now - here are all your faves! (Except for the few I couldn't find...) You'll also hear a few of my faves, like that awesome Raveonettes song and, frankly, would it be Christmas without the Chipmunks song? I think not. And to those of you that hate Christmas carols / holiday songs - sorry guys. I know this playlist must feel like a kick in the pants for you. Well at least I didn't set it to auto-play. :)

Thank You!

Hope you all have a wonderful holiday - thanks to everyone who took part in the giveaway, and everyone who drops by, leaves a comment, or picks up a needle because of anything you see here. You all inspire me and make my life so rich - with creativity, inspiration and love. However you celebrate your holiday, may it be full of peace and joy and blessings. Much love to you from all of us here!!!
