Grab your goggles, because Geek Crafts is taking a dip in the pool…the Flickr Pool! Each week we’ll be showcasing some of the awesome geek creations made by our Flickr group members.
There are a lot of great crafts floating around the pool right now, and it was tough picking just one to kick off the series. As both an embroiderer and a film nerd, though, I was instantly drawn to Ellen Schinderman’s stitched submission.
This trio of pillows features the lovable losers from Wes Anderson’s film The Royal Tenenbaums, complete with quotes from the narrator. Drop by Ellen’s blog, Schindermania, to check out the backs of the pillows, too, which have fabric correlating to each Tenenbaum child’s personality (you can already see the fuzz from the fur coat backing for Margo’s).
If you want to see the pillows in person, they’ll be part of the fifth annual “Crazy 4 Cult” gallery show in Los Angeles, July 8-30. Congratulations, Ellen!
thanks for the shout out!!
I’ll most likely be there. I love going to this galleries openings! If you are attending please drop me a line. I am on both craftster.org and deviantart.com under this screen name
