I stitched this Louise as part of a trade! I added some beads and felt for dimension and texture! #bobsburgers #louise #embroidery #beading

Her skin is stitched with peach-colored thread and she is shooting ketchup and mustard, which are beaded with different red and yellow beads. A close up of Louise, with a green felt dress and pink felt hat. A close up of the ketchup and mustard bottles. They are stitched in red thread for the ketchup bottle and yellow for the mustard.

Sometimes a quote gets stuck in my brain and I have to stitch it. That’s what happened with this scene from #thewhitelotus last night! #parkerposey
Two embroidery hoops on a wooden background. The top hoop says “the coconut milk is off” and the second says “have you ever heard of wine?”

I’m really struggling with losing Bunny Bunny. I want to share things that make me feel better, and the Avett Brothers’ music always helps. I made this in honor of my favorite album, many years ago. #emotionalism #theavettbrothers #embroidery

Today's #MakersMartch theme is #pin which brings to mind this image I drew for the cover of my latest collection of stories but I think it works as a stand alone piece. It represents for me deep melancholy, sorrow, grief, but also the eternal circle of existence the carries on with or without us.
Art piece of a drawing of a white rabbit at top of image weeping blood tears and a red rabbit at bottom with skeleton exposed weeping blue tears. There is an anatomically correct heart with a pin through it in the middle of the image and the rabbits and their tears form a loose circle around the heart.

Sweet Bunny Bunny crossed the rainbow bridge yesterday 💔 He was 10 years old, and we adopted him from a shelter when he was almost 8. We only had 2.5 years with him but 250 years wouldn’t have been enough.

PSA: Please do not buy bunnies as gifts. They are A LOT of work.
🌱They have specific diets, and if they are not followed you will end up with vet bills out the ting tang.
🫡 They are cute but mostly NOT cuddly. They can become aggressive which is not not a fault just nature. 1/
