Pop Culture Cross Stitch

One of my very good friends and I are
constantly quoting movie lines to each other,
and one of her favourite movies to quote is Mean Girls.

So when I saw something similar on Pinterest,
I knew I had to make this for her birthday present
and send it over to Essex, England for her.


I drafted the pattern for this myself on 14 count Aida.

There are a few mistakes here and there, but
overall I'm very happy with it, and so is the Birthday Girl!

Futurama Cross Stitch - Progress

Here is another progress post
as I've finished Amy and Leela and started Zoidberg



I'm almost half way!

I had put this down for quite some time but 
have picked it up again and do some
more in front of the TV when I'm
in the mood.

After Zoidberg, it's Bender, The Professor and Hermes
on the other side of Fry.

Futurama Cross Stitch

Anyone who knows me
knows that I love the TV show
Futurama

And I've always had an interest in Cross Stitching
I just never really got into it
until I stumbled upon This Etsy Store
I followed along to their blog Wee Little Stitches
and fell in love with their patterns.

And it was just my luck that they had a Futurama pattern
and even better luck that it was FREE!


I started with Fry as he was in the centre
and he is also my fave character

I'm also using a beige/cream Aida in 11 count 
and Semco thread. I chose to use 11 count Aida
as I wanted it to be a bit bigger
and easier on my wrists
