Some of my textile art. Hope you like it!

[My Good Babushka]

This is a Jacobean/Day of the Dead/They Might Be Giants themed pillow. Approximately 15" x 16", cotton thread on cotton canvas. All hand embroidered and constructed (no machine was used in any part of the making). I think this is probably the world's best Jacobean/Day of the Dead/They Might Be Giants embroidery, but you will have to judge for yourself.

How long did it take to stitch that?

16. I worked on it for about two months

It's the thing I do while I'm watching TV, so I only put in, at most, an hour a day.

19. Conservative Underground

which I didn't know existed has picked this post up to deride it, and heap it with scorn and derision, but it is driving traffic to my Etsy shop, so I just wanted to thank them. They won't let me register, though.

They seem to be wondering about the phone number- it is the number for They Might Be Giants Dial a Song service that was active for 20 years.
