These are just a few of my favourite things!

This tattoo really speaks to me.  I have to say it gave me a little chuckle when I came across it.  I’ve been sewing for just over a year now and it’s one of my favourite things to do.  A sad, little known fact about me, lately I’ve been making myself guacamole every Friday night.  So this tattoo, combining sewing notions and avacados just makes me smile.  I can only assume these two things hold a similar allure for Tea_Leaves, who submitted the photo.  The ink was done by Justin Buduo out of Piercing Emporium in Worcester, Mass.

  5. Ok I haven’t logged in to Craftster in awhile. I’m going to go do that now.

    Kristen – A lot of embroidery scissors in particular have very ornate handles on them. Some of them are really quite pretty, for scissors.

  9. These are two great things, to be sure..

    Why are they combined in a tattoo? looks pretty fuckin’ ridiculous.

    I really like grapefruit (pamplemousse!) and I’m quite fond of dogs as well… should I get a tattoo of a dog eating a grapefruit?

    maybe with a really ornate spoon?

  11. Mor – Why not? Who’s to say what should and shouldn’t be combined for a tattoo? It has meaning to the wearer so who cares. If it is meaningful to you to have a grapefruit and a dog and an ornate spoon combined into a tattoo, have at it. I certainly wouldn’t call your tattoo idea ridiculous and I don’t think this person’s tattoo is ridiculous either. Actually I think it’s pretty freaking awesome.

  13. Aw, thanks guys!
    To Mor, I say if you love the things you love, why not combine them!
    The handles on the scissors were completely Justin’s doing. He did a GREAT job and I love it!
