Move over Martha. Welcome to Subversive Cross Stitch. Saucy stitchery for the modern crafter.
Julie Jackson pairs traditional hearts and flowers with snarky sentiments.
These tiny tapestries spell out saucy messages such as:
- Bite Me
- Get Lost!
- Happy Fucking Holidays
Julie sells her naughty needlework kits on her website, subversivecrossstitch.com
Check out her new book: “Subversive Cross Stitch: 33 Designs For Your Surly Side.”
If we bought the Babies Suck one my mother would never visit us again.
ReplyDeleteI think she could handle the rest of them but not that one.
Geoff: Perhaps you could cross-stitch something sweeter on the other side and flip it 'round when your mum comes to visit. Something like "Bless This House" or, if that's too treacly, "Bless This Blog." For your household, however, it would have to say, "Bless These Blogs."

I just found out my friend in Norway has cancer and had a masectomy (sp?) a few weeks ago.
