So my gf and I are big fans of the Antoine Dodson Bedside Intruder song... so much so that it's our ringtones and currently one of our favorite things to quote to each other. She's playing hostess for me while I'm in SoCal for a dance workshop, so I thought I'd make her a little hostess gift.
I didn't have a ton of time to put it together as I've been trying to make progress on my sew along raincoat , so unfortunately, there's no border. But I think it still works... :)
In case you are one of the few who haven't seen this amazing phenomenon, here are a couple of links to watch:

Some people think the whole thing is crude, but hey, with his new-found fame and donations from 'fans', he was able to move his family out of the projects.
And P.S. Thanks for Subversive Cross Stitch for the alphabet and the idea to make something other than kitties and unicorns on cross stitch.
You are my idol. I might have to copy this. There's also a text chart generator, with different fonts, here: http://www.stitchpoint.com/eng/tool/alph/_alphabet_generator.php (Of course, I LOVE the Dublin one.)
ReplyDeleteI'm running the song through my head trying to pick the perfect line. They're all so good!
Did she like it?
