    I love the idea of stitched graffiti - graffiti with love...or something.

    But that fence seriously rocks. What a fantastic idea, and beautiful - for something that I would never have thought could be.

    No. 14 Prelude to the Final Solution

    (From the picture):
    "September 1942. This was a prelude to the Final Solution that followed. At dawn, the Gestapo made a surprise raid and in our nightshirts, lined us up by the river and terrorized us with their guns as our Polish neighbors looked on."

    Embroidery and fabric collage, 1992.

    yeah, that is very nice. interestingly, i saw something similar on a tv ad tonight (i think) involving barbed wire. nice to see that advertising is the lowest form of wit 'borrows' from other media :D

    Jack Spade releases a new wallet as an ode to their history of being robbed. It has 'Don't steal my fucking wallet' gingerly stitched across the front.

    now, i believe that it is printed, but i'll post it here as they would be awesome cross stitched like this. rakugaki (apparently) translates as 'scribble'

    belOga: not your grandmother's sewing machine.

    ...circular touch-screen which replaces the usual scheme of buttons and controls. This sewing machine concept was designed by Kristine Brückner, an industrial design graduate from the Munich's University of Applied Sciences with an impressive portfolio.

    Apart from its less than ordinary shape, the belOga makes sewing more fun. By laying in a spool of thread the machine automatically conducts the thread through the machine - all you have to do is put the thread through the needle to get started. The centre display allows you to see what the stitch will look like in advance, this means less unpleasant stitching surprises. You can even enjoy the inner life of the belOga through two little lenses on the side of the body.
