Motif a day

Two more

Another fricking flower basket with a bird,
a little alien spaceship beneath it,


and a one armed bridesmaid.  Or is that a scepter and a levitating crown? I guess with a crown that size and feet that small, she wouldn't have a chance at staying upright.  There's another figure further down, quite thin, with such a crown atop the head.  That one appears to be holding a baseball bat, or large salami.


Wonky motifs are so forgiving.  No frogs required.
It does bother me to not have some symmetry, but if Ann chose to dress her in a crooked gown, give her two mouths, and miniature feet, I will follow her lead and relish the opportunity to hide errors.

Marly, I'm so glad you're able to do some stitching. Your sampler is beautiful. I especially like the "fricking basket of flowers" and the little bird perched on top! Enjoy your day! Cherie in WI

So happy you are able to continue to stitch!
It looks like winter is here for a couple of days. Darn.

LOL!!!!!Wonky is the word... just think of the errors you can make and who would know the difference? There is a cheese here called "Drunken Goat Cheese" Me thinks
the stitchery can be proffered as the drunken stitcher's redemption....LOL Thank you
for the laugh on this rainy, drab day, Marly dear.

Marly: You always make me smile, I love the word wonky, I have had designs in the past that I wonder what the designer was think when she stitched it.
I do like this design.

I love all wonky motifs...I vote for salami for the one further down (I'm hungry at the moment)!

Hi Marly,
I could not stop laughing after each sentence!!! Thank you for your humor!! I am so happy to see you stitching all of these delightful "Wonky" characters and they are truly beautiful!! I thought of you the other day as I was stitching a very small piece for a special order that was one over one!!! Not the best idea for someone who has not cross stitched in years!!! What was I thinking??? Apparently, I wasn't, but it ACTUALLY TURNED OUT!!! Miracles STILL HAPPEN!!!
Hope you have a good weekend and enjoy that sampler!!
Heart Hugs~
