Spooky Swifty Collection: Update

Image
I failed to get this on Etsy yesterday for...reasons. But it's there now! You can get it here . I'm feeling deeply fatigued so I shall not wax poetic about it too much. I do like embroidering trees, I think. I did this cypress with Spanish moss because I think they look spooky. A good tree to be D Y I N G-ing in. I want to do a willow and I want to do some wisteria murdering an innocent tree as wisteria is wont to do. And...I can put T Swift lyrics on both and one day a T Swift fan will buy these things and if not they will languish away in my shop and be found when my home is cleaned out after I myself die.  I will probably die after being completely overwhelmed by my massive disappointment in every single person I have ever known in my life, but that is neither here nor there.  Here are some close-ups.  

WIP Friday?!?! More SPOOKY SWIFTY COLLECTION.

I might have some more free patterns from Pillars of Eternity next week, so keep an eye out if that's your thing. This week, I've just got another Spooky Swifty item, which isn't finished. I thought this one wouldn't take as long as the Conjuring one I made last week, but...well...I decided to do a cypress tree with Spanish moss (it turns out that I really like embroidering trees), and I decided to do the Spanish moss in the most incredibly tedious way possible AKA Palestrina stitch (which I don't think I was doing right for some lol). Anyway, I really like it and I'll be finishing it up today, so it will be available in the shop tomorrow hopefully. Until then, check out these WIP pictures!  This is shortly after I made the decision about the moss. Now here's some more and also tree trunk and you can see which lyrics we have happening on this one. I don't even really like this song, but well...again...here we are. Even more moss and about 6 hours or s...

The Spooky Swifty Collection?

Things that I like include (but are not limited to): professional wrestling, food, horror movies, and Taylor Swift.  Some holiday seasons ago I made some really fun little Mari Lywd/Taylor Swift embroidery hoop ornaments that DID NOT pop off as I anticipated, and I don't know why. I thought it was very clever. I still think it is very clever. I thought everyone found the Mari Lywd charming? Horse skulls always look so happy! "tis the damn season" is also such a delightful little song, so I don't know what the hang up was except that other Swifties are not fun? I have one left and you can get it here . I'm going to make more at some point so they can languish away in my Etsy shop with everything else as America collapses. Instead of assuming that no one in the world wants Taylor Swift mashed up with spooky stuff (as I should probably assume at this point and I should probably learn from my massive failure business endeavors too, but here we are), I am simply going...

FREE Globox Crochet Pattern

Image
This is a pretty easy pattern and it's based on Globox's design from Rayman 3 on the ye olde PS2. If he's a little wonky, it's ok because Globox is a little wonky! I think this is a decent beginner crochet pattern, but you should be familiar with the abbreviations or willing to use Google - this pattern will not teach you to crochet, but you can use it to practice! If you want to snag an ad-free PDF copy you can get one here . It's a pay-what-you-want pattern, so if you want to throw in a little extra $$$, it is always appreciated. The PDF version also has some extra images to help with construction and assembly that aren't included below (that is me trying to upsell). Oh, and the $$ allow me to keep making cool things without being homeless, which is neat, right? Right??? RIGHT?! Otherwise, may your ads be targeted properly and you can just stay where you are.
