Never Had One Lesson!

My sister gave me the most awesome Hanukkah gift this year: A cross-stitch pattern featuring the characters from Ferris Bueller’s Day off, complete with canvas and threads to complete the project! As you may know, I have a love for all things ‘80s… so this was absolutely perfect.

It came from weelittlestitches on Etsy and they have tons of adorable pop culture patterns. Right now I’m eyeing up some super-heroes for my son’s bedroom.

Here’s the finished product – I can’t wait to frame and hang it!

My latest obsession: cross-stitching. I know, when you think of cross-stitch you think of intricate Thomas Kinkade-ish scenes embroidered on pillows. Or fancy samplers hanging on your Grandma’s wall.  Are these things that I would EVER make? No. (Apologies to your Grandma – No offense intended).

Instead, I have taken the traditional sampler and turned it on its head with snarky sayings and song lyrics. These have been a lot of fun. Let me know if you have a clever one you’d like to see!
