This project just makes me giggle! Mr. Plum and I are slowly amassing some of our favorite pop culture references to make into an art wall. To add some mixed media texture, I decided to take on a little counted cross stitch. I haven't done this in ages, but it was super easy to pick back up. I think this is a project that anyone could tackle.
I found this fabulous The Big Lebowski pattern from weelittlestitches on Etsy. The level of detail in the pattern is hilariously amazing! I was seriously laughing out loud while I stitched Maude's bowling ball boobs!
Some of the detail got a little muddy. I think there wasn't enough contrast between some of the colors. Can you even tell Walter has 6 pockets stitched onto his vest? They are there, I promise!
I got a little carried away on Donny's pants and forgot to give him his bowling ball. Oops.
This project came out great and was relatively quick (ok, everything seems quick after that seven year sweater!). The counted cross stitch was pretty relaxing and methodical once I remembered what I was doing. Now I just need to find the perfect frame!
Wow, you did really good job here, I wish I could do half of what you have done here. Thanks for sharing such lovely post with us and keep posting such posts
