Rapture Giveaway – Lot 7
Lot 7: I Welcome All Comments sampler
Fantastic hand stitched sampler inspired by this post.
It’s a beautifully made piece, and a wonderful way to say “hey, shut the fuck up.”
I’m sorry to say that I when I opened this piece, I inadvertently threw away the envelope and the enclosed letter, so I can’t remember who made this. If this is your piece, please let me know so I can credit/link you.
UPDATE: This steller sampler was stitched by Impossiblerocket!

Even God appreciates a little Simon Pegg.
May 21, 2011 at 5:10 pm
I’m an idiot. I thought that was a sink and the scale was throwing me off. “What is that? A tampon and a pamphlet….oh”
May 21, 2011 at 5:10 pm
OMG, I love Simon Pegg!!
May 21, 2011 at 8:14 pm
Me too, it’s why we’re married (A pillow with an image on it is legally a person, right?)
May 21, 2011 at 5:20 pm
Mmmmm-hmmmmmm!
May 21, 2011 at 9:26 pm
It seems silly, but it took me five or six shots to get the ‘water moving’ look just right.
May 21, 2011 at 5:01 pm
That’s one way to get out of a wedding.

She always called me her little devil!
May 21, 2011 at 5:05 pm
it’s HTML love. Hopefully that works.
May 21, 2011 at 5:07 pm
Oh thank you so much!!! You’re an angel, well maybe not since you are still here.
May 21, 2011 at 5:11 pm
Did you tell her to “look sad”? because that is one sad-looking little one.
May 21, 2011 at 5:16 pm
I did, and out of about 10 pics this is the only one she looked sad in. In the rest she is just cracking up.
May 21, 2011 at 5:16 pm
I have that “monkey business shirt” with googly eyes!
May 21, 2011 at 5:17 pm
Oh, poor evil child is sad! And such a good book too!
If you give a pig a pancake, he may give Mommy enough good Karma to be raptured. So eat the little porker.

May 21, 2011 at 5:51 pm
She wasn’t sure whether she wanted to sit or to stand on the empty clothes so she chose to sort of do both.

Love your screen name!

Raptured while sending a smiley. Bitches love smileys.

The cigs rapture, just more slowly.
May 21, 2011 at 5:45 pm
What’s in that box? It looks like some sort of sweet yummyness. Cheesecake, perhaps?
May 21, 2011 at 7:08 pm
Yes it was actually cheese cake, acompanied by low carb beer… have to watch my figure you know…

One minute I’m kicking back, sipping Champagne and eating melty girl scout cookies, the next…
May 21, 2011 at 5:32 pm
I call dibs on the cookies, Jabba ain’t got shit on me.
May 21, 2011 at 6:29 pm
How do you still have Girl Scout cookies? Did you find them under the sofa or something?
May 21, 2011 at 6:40 pm
Take two:
You’ve still got Girl Scout cookies? That’s the real miracle.
May 21, 2011 at 7:20 pm
they are delicious when frozen! I still have many boxes in my freezer…
May 21, 2011 at 5:07 pm
Why did I blow my whole inspiration wad so early in the day? I should have known there was something incredible coming up. That sampler is so beautiful.
May 21, 2011 at 6:14 pm
Premature Illustration is a common problem for some people. There are techniques and medication to help you overcome it.
May 21, 2011 at 5:08 pm
Such a good boy! He was raptured while wearing his Boy Scout uniform AND eating greens! No wonder Jesus took him! Jesus loves greens — he was a hippie after all.
May 21, 2011 at 5:19 pm
And he is a boy scout. They can’t be gay or atheist, so they are all gone. Girl scouts will rule the scouting world!!!
May 21, 2011 at 5:29 pm
And thankfully it happened before I made that last payment on summer camp!

May 21, 2011 at 5:08 pm
Remember: No calling out in the forums. Okay, I’m going to wrap this up about now.
May 21, 2011 at 5:26 pm
Oh god, the Breaking Dawn fanart in the background totally made this rapture worth it. Lol.
May 21, 2011 at 5:08 pm

May 21, 2011 at 5:13 pm
Pity the dog…first she was viewing them on the kitchen table doing something with whipped cream which she didn’t quite understand. And then it was just her and the whipped cream.
Oh. Wait.
May 21, 2011 at 5:15 pm
Damn. I was one shift away from vacation. Figures.
May 21, 2011 at 5:16 pm
Ahhh, what a nice evening…
May 21, 2011 at 5:16 pm
Raptured when I was just starting to enjoy dinner and a stiff drink while allowing the munchkin to destroy the kitchen… at least I don’t have to clean up that mess now.

Oh no, your hat got left behind! Where do you live? I’ll keep it safe for ya
May 21, 2011 at 8:29 pm
There’s a matching coffee sleeve too
The boy snuck into the picture.
May 21, 2011 at 6:02 pm
Not the hat! NOOOOOOoooooo!
Surely God would want that in heaven!
May 21, 2011 at 8:06 pm
God already has that in heaven. They’re the new halos.
May 21, 2011 at 8:30 pm
That hat would match my sock monkey pajamas and slippers! I must have it…
May 21, 2011 at 10:26 pm
It matches my slippers, pj pants and coffee sleeve. Back off!
May 21, 2011 at 10:40 pm
I just want to know where you got it! They made more than one, right? Right?
May 21, 2011 at 5:19 pm
so who’s with me on the post rapture looting ?
May 21, 2011 at 5:46 pm
There certainly does seem to be a lot of laptops left unattended…
May 21, 2011 at 5:21 pm
Pretty much self explanatory… It’s the rapture blah blah blah going to to meet Jesus in the sky blah blah blah giant bajingo with bloody teeth.

Oh yeah, 75 year-old singer and she runs like a champ! <3
May 21, 2011 at 6:07 pm
Replied in the wrong spot cuz I’m a doofus.
May 21, 2011 at 6:34 pm
And what a beauty she is, too!
May 21, 2011 at 11:20 pm
I actually have a similar one, not quite as old, that used to be my grandma’s. I love it. They used to make them so elegant and sturdy–what happened?
May 21, 2011 at 6:06 pm
Rap’d. It’s a thing.
May 22, 2011 at 12:28 am
Shitty plastic parts happened. Only bad thing is I can’t do zig-zag stitches or sew in the round, like hems on pants. D: But Betsy, my machine, is mine and I love her! <3
May 21, 2011 at 6:00 pm
On what looks like an antique machine, too, awesome!

Could someone tell a moron how to put a photo in their comment? (FYI, I’m the moron).
May 21, 2011 at 5:35 pm
Nevermind, the moron put in some effort and figured it out.
May 21, 2011 at 6:57 pm
I’m still a moron. The best I managed was a link to my flikr. At least it worked.
May 21, 2011 at 5:25 pm
NOOO! I can’t go now!! I JUST PLANTED FLOWERS!! I’VE GOT TO HARVEST PEPPERS ON MY OTHER FARM! NOOOOOOOOOO!!! SOMEONE HELP ME! JESUS, SAVE ME! Oh, wait…

Okay, this is my first try at putting a photo up:
May 21, 2011 at 5:50 pm
When I saw that sampler, I thought it looked like a lot of work. Either you’re tenacious like bull (I like) or I’m mistaken.
May 21, 2011 at 6:06 pm
Ooooo Are you working from a pattern? Can we see it when it’s done?
May 21, 2011 at 6:16 pm
It’s a steotch pattern, I think.
May 21, 2011 at 6:29 pm
It is indeed a Steotch pattern, purchase-able here:
http://www.etsy.com/listing/66030111/a-fair-young-lass-pattern?ref=pr_shop
True fact: I’ve been working on it for about 3 months – I’m a fairly half-assed cross-stitcher.
May 21, 2011 at 6:36 pm
I take forever to finish a knitting project myself. I don’t see how some people can just take mere days to finish a sweater.
May 21, 2011 at 5:37 pm
where can a zombie chick get a drink in this post-apocalyptic dump?
May 21, 2011 at 5:41 pm
I don’t know how Grover’s really bad day ended … perhaps with a Rapture?
May 21, 2011 at 6:06 pm
Your boobs got left behind. They must have been REALLY bad, or you were REALLY good.
May 21, 2011 at 7:02 pm
She was wearing her wonderbra. I almost put a wonderbra in my shirt for my pic.
May 21, 2011 at 7:13 pm
Ah, thats it! I just have a gutter mind, I guess!

No Rapture Butthurt Edition.
May 21, 2011 at 5:42 pm
Okay… I said I was out, but what the hell. You only get raptured once. (or twice if you count 1994)

Inspired by the Royal Wedding Plate my husband and I decided to experiment in the bedroom. Little did we know our fun would be interrupted by the rapture.
May 21, 2011 at 6:16 pm
Ooops..this is the correct image. I’m going to go flounce myself now.

My best one is a lovely raptured-during-sex-with-lots-of-condoms-and-lube shot (including a teddy that looks more like a Phyllis Diller costume). Oh well..just spent an hour talking to AT&T about it. Now I KNOW I’m in hell.

I’d love to enter a photo but I’m too stupid to figure it out. When I try, I don’t see the photo, I see only the tag. So many talented people have posted photos much better than mine that I didn’t have a chance anyway. I don’t envy HK’s task of selecting the winners.
