Greatful Dead logo

I guess I must have big fingers. I loaned my camera to BB then decided I wanted to take some pictures of the Grateful Dead logo I made for him and must have poked something I shouldn't have. ALL BLUE PICTURES !!

Da Boys...both of them are fans of The Grateful Dead jam band. I learned the craft of Thread Painting a couple of years ago. It is very enjoyable. I hadn't done it in quite a while and had to learn it all over again. The first patch was not totally acceptable but BB liked it so much that he wanted to keep it anyway. I sewed it onto a cap for him today and the pictures are of him and the cap. I think I will take some more pictures minas the Big Finger effect and will show them to you later when I can corral him again.

Hi Connie,
The skull itself is a little too freaky for me, but the threadwork is neat. I'm assuming that's done on a special sewing machine?
Have a great Sunday!
God bless

Looks like you did a good job, but I have a hard time understanding why anyone would want this on top of their head. All that blue is interesting.

How funny, and appropriate, your pictures of dad w/ a Greatful Dead hat were turned pshchadelic blue.

Pure poetry.

Brenda, before I heard the Grateful Dead music I would have turned 'thumbs down' but since listening to some of the music, I know why 'da boys' like it so much. Most of it is just happy, upbeat music...that goes on and on. They simply don't know how to quit, like some praise music leaders '-)

Charlotte: He claims he now has a new favorite hat. The blue was an accident. Probably, being the expert camera person you are, you could probably explain what I did.

Amanda: Oh so right!
