life's a stitch.

so that last post of my embroidery was quite frankly terrible, needles (haha) to say i started again!
i spend two nights doing that instead of uni work and it's now ready to be given to liam, who i'm hoping will see the funny side rather than the insulting side of my cheeky cross stitch.
Here it is in a pretty little ikea frame!



i took a picture with the mirror effect on my photobooth so one of the images would be the correct way round! xox

subversive cross-stitch.

like a dumb ass, i left my crochet at home when i went back for easter! i miss it so i've started a new crafty hobby (source of procrastination) i've begun my subversive cross-stitch!
my first attempt isn't going great since i'm trying to make it up as i go along which makes alignment difficult...
theres only one person who would appreciate my finished product, so i'm giving it as a present to my friend liam.
it is going to read

"there's no "i" in team, but there is a "u" in c**t"
(without the stars but i censored that for the eyes of my followers)

i think he'll find it funny, i hope he will.
i'll let you know how it goes...



it looks awful so far and it's obviously backwards on my macbook image but once i finish it and add some hearts and patterns it will look AMAZING!
