Subversive Cross Stitch: 33 Designs for Your Surly Side by Bill Milne, Julie Jackson

3.0

It seemed like such a great idea; take a slightly ho-hum craft that I happen to love, and bring it in to the 21st century by adding some spicy language. It fell a little short for me though, in the sense that it's not enough to just stitch a piece that says "Go F*%#k yourself". It actually has to look good and be creative too. Although the sayings made me laugh out loud, the designs were too simple for me, too boring. And I must admit, if I ever did create a wall hanging that said "Happy F%^@#ing Holidays, I could never invite my Mom over again. Nice try, but better luck next time.
