Party Bear is trying his best to muster the appropriate amount of enthusiasm… for StitchPunk’s first birthday! Yup, we started this little blog one year ago today, and it’s been all kinds of fun since then.
By the way, isn’t Bear cute? He was stitched up by alexishelmrath. I’m loving the vintage applique look.
So grab your party hats and everybody shout!
Yay.
Hello! If you haven’t noticed, there has been a monster take over of the UT flickr pool! I braved past the scary monsters and snuggled with the adorable ones to uncover some other great embroidery projects!
Ahoy! Gaitri Sparkles created this Kindle cover, giving it a special book-like feel. The piping detail around the embroidery really adds to the finished piece.
This baby ninja bib and mustachio is extra fabuloso! By Crystal of Morning Tempest.
An elegant use of the Baroque Punk Heart Locket by Quirky Kim! The white thread on black looks stunning!
My favorite kind of dreams have rainbows, ice cream and ponies! I would love to drift off into this magical dreamland illustrated by One Sweet Stitch.
Ruby Shines Momma must have created this nifty little clip purse with me in mind! I love it! Hopefully all those colorful zippers will transform into many more exciting embroidery projects!
Voodoo doll pincushions are pretty self explanatory. And wonderful. This matching set was made by snifferooski, for herself and her mom.
This classy garment was stitched by Bridget. She was looking for some more elegant creative office wear. I find the neck line particularly posh. How many basics in your closet could use a steam punk embroidery make-over?
A great reminder, beautifully stitched by knottygal.
This adorable bag by Time Wrinkler is sized to fit a Kindle fire, bringing our Flickr Roundup full circle. I am happy to know you Urban Threadsters are keeping up on your reading between stitching incredible projects!

Flickr user Queen Maab has hand embroidered the 9 main Dark Fairytale features to perfection, and to top it all off she’s put them all in these gorgeous dark ornate frames. I am LOVING the embroidery with the antique gold. These must look stunning all hung up on the wall together.
This is just a taste. Check out the whole series over on her flickr set.
Rock. On.
Hands down, my favorite pet costume I’ve ever seen. Crestedcrazy, you are crazy. In all the best ways that count.
Fantastic entry to the Urban Threads costume contest too, with all those lovely lace skulls and bats. Have you started stitching for Halloween yet?
Spotted in the Urban Threads flickr pool…
Jo is one lucky bunny to have LisaLady161 as a swap partner. I think I’d carry this around with me everywhere and ask if anyone has seen the six fingered man.
Swank stitching madame. I’m sure you’ll never have a shortage of swap partners.
