Stephen King Heart Embroidery

stephen-king-heart-embroidery 

 Today I heard the story of a 21 year old, Stephen King loving, video game geek who passed away from congestive heart failure on January 12th. Mikey was trying to “hold on” until The Watchmen movie came out, but sadly, this WOW loving geek passed before it happened. I thought to honor his memory I’d post this Stephen King Heart Embroidery that I found awhile back and was waiting for the “right time” to post.

Antarcticraft made and posted this detailed embroidery of a heart with a famous King quote “I have the heart of a small boy, it’s in a jar on my desk” embroidered in a great “creepy handwriting” style on craftster. This is something I would love to have in a frame next to my Stephen King collection on my shelf, great job, antarcticraft!

Katy Marcus at Cut Out + Keep posted this great Marvin the Paranoid Android knitting project. He’s depressed, paranoid and completely adorable, perfect handmade gift for the Hitchhiker’s Guide fan in your life, or to knit for yourself and snuggle. You know, to cheer him up.
