NPR’s Ira Glass in Cross Stitch
Check out this amazing work of cross stitch. Craftster user postfeminist stitched this meticulously detailed portrait of Ira Glass of NPR’s This American Life. She says she’s working on Elvis Costello and others. I can’t wait to see more of her work!

Happy Mother’s Day to all you crafty moms and geeky moms and crafty geeky moms from Geek Crafts.
Smash Magazine posted this article on pixel art as part of their Monday inspiration series. This cupcake painting by Ashley Anderson is my favorite example. There’s also a great list of resources at the end of the article.

Video Game Sprite Shirts
Geek Crafts reader Kat sent us a link to her awesome blog of video game sprite t-shirts that she hand-paints as gifts for friends. She specializes in NES sprites. I am *so* impressed with how crisp and precise her painting is. I think the Bubble Bobble guy is my favorite.
