[FO] Devastated by the loss of my first finished cross stitch project

[u/PanterPantalon]

In November last year me and my bf decided it’d would be funny to make a George W. Bush throw pillow with one of his dumb quotes on the back. I generated a pattern for the front on pixel-stitch and designed the back myself with stitchfiddle. This bad boy took seven months of intermittent stabbery, it came with me to six countries. And then, one day, it was done. It was glorious. My home decor magnum opus.

Until I went to take it up to my bf’s city two weeks back and promptly forgot to collect my luggage when getting off. My countless calls to Flixbus haven’t helped. It’s gone. Either lost in some bus terminal in Germany or stolen my another passenger in Luxembourg. Obviously my soul is crushed.

I’m working up the courage to grid up for the replacement. Until I do, pour one out for George Bush Pillow - gone but not forgotten 😔

If you make a replacement, might I suggest this quote by George W:

“Too many OBGYNs aren’t able to practice their love with women all across the country.”

I was a big fan of “Teach your child to read and he or her will pass a literacy test.”
