Sunday Stitchin'


A group of toggle and Kraftbomb folk had a great time stitching away at the Auckland Art Gallery in the Yinka Shonibare MBE show.
JB Bones completed this work above.
Esther and Kirsten (Cheek Pinchy) helped the public make badges from a huge pile of mad fabric.
City's (NZ Cupcake Queen) lovely husband Chris and Karen's (Luxford St) gorgeous boy Fred made their first forays into the splendid world of stitch.

De Cat Pitation Heads


Love these, had to buy one from ETSY, the maker is Spellwell.
My cat usually leaves the arse of the dead creature rather than the head.
