had a disturbing experience concerning cross stitch pattern (didn´t know that such a thing was even possible...), i got a quite unusual looking stitching journal at the flea market and when i took a closer look at it at home i was really shocked. approximately 1933-45, Germany, how to stitch certain symbols in a neat Germanic manner...yeah, right...
it never made it into the house and i even had to wash my hands. now what shall i do with it? destroy it? keep it as memento of how even handicraft can become evil? or shall i get very conceptional arty and stitch a German unjust state pillow case using this collection of patterns and stitching twine produced in the former DDR? any suggestions? i surely wont give it away - it could get in the wrong hands...
anything else? flowers!
