A Murderable Offense

Pattern from Night Spirit Studio. I did this one back in 2019. I dyed the aida myself and I remember working on it with a friend. She said she wanted to do some cross stitching with me.  I got very excited, even though she wanted to stitch up a stupid quote from some stupid movie. She insisted she knew how to cross stitch already and was stitching it with all 6 strands and it just looked HORRIBLE. The fabric she cut was way too small and so she did a thing where she trailed the words down the side.  She said she was gonna give it to her boyfriend. And I was thinking "WTF why would you make something you know is garbage and give it as a gift?"  I said "I thought you liked him though..."  

What a fucking mess (the cross stitch, the now ex-friend, AND the relationship).  Anyway, not sure why I went on that hateful tangent but I really love this piece :)
