So i was going through all the blog posts that i star to follow up and found this gem from Wooster Collective the awesome fun Melbourne group Architecture in Helsinki embroidered clip for Like it or Not. Seeing as i don't really watch music TV these days i'm assuming this has been out some time but it still doesn't make it any less impressive.
It makes my embroidery efforts look tiny in comparison, as shown here by the Crafty Librarian at the first 2009 Sydney Brown Owls Meeting.
Yes it really is something i have hoarded since 1989, with intentions of completion. At Brown Owls the other night i made progress on it for the first time in years and have nearly finished the bow.
I'm yet to recall the colour of thread i used for the eyes but have most of the other threads from my yr9 T&D class in my stash. Mr Blue-eyes didn't seem so keen to have it on the couch with our modern ikea cushions but i'll work on him.

I enjoyed my first Brown Owls meeting, being able to talk crafty goodness with kindred spirits is a nice change from work etc. And meeting lovely gals that either have creative jobs or manage to be creative in other ways is very inspirational.
And having never been a girl guide etc i'm looking forward to earning some merit badges.
