A SEWING TATTOO! The Zombie Voodoo Pin Cushion!

Here he is! He is a BAAAAAD little tomato pin cushion!
He is eating the little strawberry!!!!
And don't you just LOVE the little skull voodoo pins???!!!
BADASS!
I need to get some of the red parts touched up next month. Red has always been a color that heals the worst for me. It always changes color. Pink and blue heal exactly the same as the day they were put on.

This was designed by an artist friend at the shop where I get work done. He and I were talking about ideas for sewing tatoos and he makes these gorgeous voodoo dolls, and the pins inspired me to think of the tomato pin cushion. He drew this up, I love it so much that I didn't change a thing. He says his seamstress friends are so jealous that IT"S ALL MINE!
When I get the touchup I will post pictures again. And I just have to get him a friend for back there. I will be thinking about that!
