If you love men and embroidery (or if you like one or the other) then you’ll love the Manbroidery Group on Flickr. Like dudes in general, these projects are a little bolder and tougher… certainly not frilly… but still Totally Stitchin’. I adore so many things in this pool, especially this Twin Peaks-themed project:
One of the group’s most active members, Mr X Stitch, has an incredible blog (“the number one contemporary embroidery and needlecraft blog on the planet”, in fact) where he shares both his own work and cool embroidery from boys AND girls. I highly recommend checking out his site (and so does Kendra. We are serious Mr. X Stitch fangirls). Embroidery and photo by him, below:
I now have a full-blown crush on Rosey Grier (the needlecraft expert pictured up top). And I know that the below picture is crochet, but y’all, can we make Kenneth from 30 Rock an honorary Stitchin’ Woman?

This is si great. I love the NBC bikini top!
We’re glad you like it! When Stephanie and I found all these man embroiderers we were amazed at the crazy and cool stuff they made.
[...] then another cool surprise was this article by the gals over at Totally Stitchin’. Gotta love them [...]
I remember when Rosie stitched. He was really cool even back when!
hahaha - we need to embroidery a TS bikini top.
