STICKERS!!!! I’m in love with them! They are transparent on the edges, so it looks like you’ve got a bear/owl/bat stitched on whatever needs something bad ass on it.

Song of Achilles was my favorite book in Feb! I read Circe last year they are both top tier books in my rankings!

February reading round up as a break in your (and my) doom scrolling. The Song of Achilles was my favorite out of the bunch! Ps always love new friends on storygraph 🙂📚

Wrapped up my intermediate embroidery class last week and my students absolutely killed this pattern, truly it’s hard to tell which the example piece is 😂 I LOVED teaching this class and all of the unique stitches!

Walleye! I stitched this custom hat for someone that wanted a really special gift for their walleye biologist partner and I was so thrilled with how it turned out!

In third grade I got sent to the hallway because I couldn’t contain my laughter over the Gulf of Alaska and was disruptive, I thought it was a joke about the Gulf of Mexico. But now Gulf of America is the actual joke and it’s all come full circle I guess and sadly it’s not funny, it’s stupid.

SUPERBOWL actually is SUPERB OWL and I especially mean that this year as I cannot stand the chiefs 😂 Owls all the way, baby, followed by Eagles. 🦅

Ah!!! That is awesome I hope she does!!

#blueskyartshow today is #reflections. I’m reflecting on my time spent watching Cara Cara’s on the texas gulf shore, reflections in the water, and on my past #scenicspecies series. Hard not to absolutely love this one.

Participating in #fishyfeb, here is another of my #scenicspecies series. Based on a tide pool, depicting a little sculpin, gumboot chiton, anemones and ochre sea stars. This one remains unclaimed, and currently discounted! If you are a tide pooler, maybe it’s the hat for you!

#embroidery #artyear

That is so sweet!

Okay obviously I love this. So fun!
