Little things that count

By in Art!, making stuff is good

Shannon cast a bunch of Ari’s Barbie faces the other day so I got to work painting the smallest one as a zombie. The eyes were drilled out and I sewed it onto my jacket and I think it looks totally adorbz.

It’s scary AND cute. Just the way I like everything in my life.

Speaking of which, I was recently looking at various cross stitch samplers and thought, really? What the hell! I think I could do that! So, inspired again by my favourite 8-bit artist, I came up with this:

I have NO good idea for what to do with it, it’s small, like the actual sewn part is about 3″ square. Blah.

Blah!

Ooh, and guess what I found at Walmart!??!?

I know, right? Not perfect but still!

    Zombie barbie=WIN! I <3 it!

    As for the little wee cross stich (also awesome) maybe just save it for a random quilt piece? You just never know…
