This is a thing that exists

The Gene Kelly Cross Stitch Pattern.

I haven't cross-stitched in ages -- never even finished the Snoopy I was making for my goddaughter when she was born, six years ago -- but I am so tempted to get this, you have NO IDEA.

In other "this is a thing that exists" news: The Narnia Wardrobe Ring. We've finally found a ring I wouldn't wear: For one thing, I'd have to sell everything I own, ever have owned, and ever will own, plus any potential firstborn child, to afford it. For another thing, the sheer size and weight of it would drag my hand all the way down to the floor.

But the concept's kind of cool, don't you think? Wonder if they make a pendant . . .

I might feel kind of bad for sticking a needle repeatedly into his face...

That ring is amazing! Very clever, but I can't imagine anyone who would actually wear it.

You'd have to have ENORMOUS hands. Funny -- just this week I was asking my piano teacher if there's ever been anyone with hands big enough to play the left-hand part of Beethoven's Pathetique sonata without a little help from the right hand. The stretches are just huge. So if there is anyone who can, that person could probably wear that ring! :-)

I also haven't cross stitched in ages, but it's so easy I think I could pick it up again pretty easily. I do think it's interesting she picked a black and white still of him - I think that would be difficult to get across in cross stitch. I do admire the concept though, Gene should be immortalized in as many forms of art as possible. :-)

That ring is amazing, what a gorgeous work of art!

That cross-stitch pattern is amazing! Etsy is such a dangerous place . . .
