Friday the 13th Necklace

I must hang my head in shame. I — a self-proclaimed horror film geek — have never seen any of the Friday the 13th films. Unless you count Freddy vs. Jason, which I kinda don’t. Doesn’t mean I’m not immune to the bone-chilling effect Mr. Voorhees has. Just looking at his hockey mask scares me…even … Continue reading Friday the 13th Necklace

Plushie Oy from Stephen King’s The Dark Tower

Okay, so I’ve never read any Stephen King books and have seen only a few movies. I don’t usually do scary and his work definitely qualifies as scary in my book (pun intended).

My favorite is of course the Enterprise, but there are also amazingly photographed scenes from … Continue reading CMYK Starship Enterprise

So long and thanks for all the fish!

Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy is probably one of the greatest movies of all time.  The opening credits are one of my favorite parts of the movie, and Craftster user  Tracey_K made this needlework bundle-of-awesome as a housewarming gift!   I’ve never worked with metallic thread before, and she says it is no fun to … Continue reading So long and thanks for all the fish!
