Brief Description: @LovelyMiss sent this wonderful cross stitch kit as part of last season’s Nerd Games prizes. Having never cross stitched before, I though I would give it a go. I really enjoyed it. It was a very zen project is a time of chaos. How does it relate to the 00’s? When I was away at college in the early 00’s my mom sent me this shirt in a care package

this cross stitch pattern strongly reminds me of it, which is part of why I like it so much I think. (and now my daughter wears the shirt as PJs, so it is still getting love).
