I’m Garrett, I’m basically a human Muppet with ADHD who works in finance (don’t ask for advice) and likes to cross stitch, felt appliqué, watch true crime and collects Wizard of Oz stuff.

On a yellow fabric a white house with a brown roof is sitting with purple socks and brown shoes sticking out from under it. A brown tornado with grey-green wind marks is next to it. It is surrounded by yellow bricks. To the left of the tornado is Dorothy, in a blue dress with white apron and Toto. To the left of her is a purple and pink floral archway with the Witch of the north in an orange hat and dress with yellow cape and the Scarecrow in a blue tunic and green pants with a crow on his shoulder, surrounded by corn. Above the Scarecrow are the Tin Man and Lion. Around Tin Man are yellow flowers with blue stems and blue flowers with pink stems. Around Lion are pink and orange motifs. Above Dorothy and the tornado are a poppy field in blues, reds and pinks, the queen of the field mice, a white stork and a Kalidah. In the center, the gates of Emerald City are stitched.

Image Description: On a sparkly blue fabric, a brown cow, a winged pink pig, some fairies and a big blue and a big orange flower have been stitched. A brown split rail fence with flowers separates them from a sheep, chicken and two baby chicks. A bee skep sits above the sheep. To the right of the pig is a purple wishing well with a red roof, a blue watering can and some stalks of corn. Above the watering can is an orange cat, a duck and more fence. Above the wishing well a winged goat, a duck in a pool and a goose are hanging out. Some vegetables grow next to them. In the upper left, is a barn and some clouds are stitched.  A purple winged kitty soars over the trees. On the other side of the trees is a blue chicken coop. Next to the corn are four pumpkins, a fairy and an orange dog. Above the dog is the fence, a hen and a large treasure chest. In the upper right, a brown house with a green roof and a pink door is stitched.

This is definitely a step up. I enjoyed the 2011 film, but it was more because of them than the quality. This isn’t perfect but it’s a strong start

I got blocked. And then unblocked. And then gained like a ridiculous amount of new followers. So I consider that a win for more people not liking gen AI

The premiere of the new Muppet Show was well worth it. I’m not a big Seth Rogen fan, but he largely got the assignment. It’s not perfect, and I’d have preferred “Pigs In Space” or “Veterinarian’s Hospital” over “Pigs With Wigs” but for the first time in a while, it’s felt more like Jim than Disney.

Hands Across the Sea. She got a lot of heat for it and I did an IG live about how bad Gen AI is and she did remove the post, but she made another one later so no lesson learned.

So this wasn’t a kit, I actually bought the pattern, fabric and floss separately. While the kits are great if you are curious and want to learn how to stitch, the themes and variety of kits are pretty small.

Image Description: On a blue mottled fabric with yellow and green highlights a mansion is being stitched. The roof is black, with shade of blue wood panels on the dormers. Ghosts, bats and clouds surround it. Of the eventual nine rooms, three have been stitched in full. On the top floor, in the center is the Phantom of the Opera with red stage curtains, a pipe organ and a chandelier. On the right is the Creature from the Black Lagoon with vines and water. On the middle floor in the center is a Mummy with a sarcophagus, urn, cat and torch with heiroglyphics.

Same. No one bats an eye over retellings/reimaginings but disliking Tilda Swinton as the White Witch seems to be tantamount to kicking a baby.

That said, I am very much over the Wonderland retellings that are all riffs on American McGee’s Alice.
