CMYK Starship Enterprise

CMYK Starship EnterpriseWhen sci-fi geekery meets ink cartridges and a little creativity, it turns into some really amazing art!  Artist Faith Pearson made scenes from sci-fi movies and tv shows using a ton of empty ink cartridges donated by Ink and Media Ltd.

My favorite is of course the Enterprise, but there are also amazingly photographed scenes from Godzilla and King Kong, and a pretty convincing space tunnel!  Check out the full gallery of images at Ink and Media Ltd.

So long and thanks for all the fish!

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 work with… however, it looks amazing!!  The colors work perfectly, and font selection is spot on – this so tops my current favorite crafts!  (and inspires me to finally finish my own cross stitch)  Kudos, Tracey_K, I love it!

The Only Alien At School – Free Embroidery Pattern

I recently made this embroidered patch for the Quentin Tarantino/Robert Rodriguez craft swap on Craftster for Ralph. It’s inspired by the movie “The Faculty” where aliens take over a high school… you should watch it it’s great… and heck, I don’t believe in keeping ideas to myself so here…

Have the embroidery pattern for free!!

I’m pretty certain there’s people out there who could sew it up better than me anyhow… all T+C’s on my blog.
