Harvest Mini Pillow






I just couldn't come up with great project for this month's theme. Then as I was looking for some plastic canvas, I found this little pillow I finished not so very long ago that has a harvest theme! I totally forgot I made it. In fact I should have listed it in my Etsy shop before Thanksgiving and now it's too late. :(
But you can still enjoy it here on the zombie blog. Go NANNERS!

Oh and I told my friend about your group. He thought NANNER was short for grandma (nana I guess). He wanted to know why I invited him to a blog for grannies. LMAO. So if anyone else is confused, nanner is short for BANANA.

Embroidered Love Machine



I was tempted to go at this in several different ways and ended up settling on freehand embroidery on felt. I like this acrylic felt because it's made from soda bottles. I chose hot pink for 'love'. The stitches include split stitch, satin stitch, couching and french knots.

Just Finished My Letter



I'm sooo tired so I'm going to bed, but here is my fancy letter.

Today's Challenge Is Flying Pickle






I couldn't wait to work on my Flying Pickle this morning. I chose embroidery. As I was working on it I suddenly remembered the Pickle Family Circus. I showed this to my boyfriend when I was done and he had no idea what it was, other than something being shot out of a cannnon. Finally I told him it's a pickle. So I said, "What could I have done to make it look more like a pickle? He said, "Make it green." So I said, "It is green." So he said, "Make it curved." And I said, "It is curved." At first it was too curved so I took it out and started over. Ah well. It did make me laugh though, and that was one of the points of this gang. Go Zombie Nanner Gang!
