The future keeps creeping up on me at the moment, so I thought I'd share these two future based ladies. I embroidered them onto pillowcases using this most excellent Sublime Stitching pattern (purchased as part of this expedition), and embroidery thread from a box of scraps which belonged to my Grandmother. I believe the stitch is called split-stitch- I followed the instructions here...
Unfortunately their rocket packs were not quite powerful enough to carry them across the Atlantic, so I had to resort to Royal Mail to get them to their destination in LA
In other news- I've been boinged! They linked to Craftster, not here, but I nonetheless felt I ought to spruce up my sci-fi crafting credentials...

Well, look at them all ready to go! Fabulous embroideries. I've always wanted to embroider pinups on a pillowcase or something, but have no patience for it - yours are great!
Love the space girls - will add them to my list of sublime stitching kits to find over here. Where did you find them?! Lx
awesome space mamas! those sublime stitch kits get better and better with each release!
I knew you would post them eventually!! Thank you again... there really couldn't be a much more appropriate gift for me, could there? :)
moonage daydream, oh yeah . . .
These look great! I love their boots ;)
They're awesome! I've just been reading about Space Craft: apparently NASA and Etsy are having a contest involving space-themed craft. Sounds like fun.
they are amazing- makes me want to get out there and embroider!
these are fantastic :)
sweet ladies! I should use my Sublime stitching patterns soon.
Gosh, those are fabulously awesome.
I love the space girrls
....so adorable!
I love you! That is all.
Aren't they great transfers! I recently embroided a cushion using the same set and next on the list is a set of pillow slips as you have.
