It’s a Stitchin Riot!

Check out these hot new stitches from Johanna at Cross Yr Stitches

We have to excuse the pics because apparently the only camera Johanna has is on her mobile. Goodness do you think we should all pitch in a and get her a proper camera? These are such great pieces of work I think they deserved to be properly captured. But in the mean time I do love them, especially the riot one. I’m on a whole floral buzz right now, who woul’ve thought that flowers were such fun things to stitch!

And some of you might recognise the feminist symbol from this site cause the pattern was made by our resident ninja. The pattern is here if you want to make one yourself, and don’t forget to send us pics!

I’m getting into a bit more public xstitch tomorrow in honour of the long awaited apology. So if you’re in Melbourne city, swing by Section 8 Bar for some awesome music, conscious souls, and see the fence intervention project.

Pretty!

Even though I would have liked to, I wasn’t me that came up with that feminism symbol. All I did was to embroider one for myself from a photo i found in an old issue of the Swedish craft magazine Hemslöjden. The original was apparently made by Gunilla Thorgren.
