Evelyn's Geology Primer

I have been working on the following project for about 2 years now, off and on of course. It's kind of like a book made out of felt with a geologically relevant item for each letter of Evelyn's name. I plan to drop it in the mail soon, hopefully it will get where it's going before I reveal all of the pages.
The first page is : EMERALD.

Hand Embroidered Patch Swap IV

This is the last patch... my favorite flower!
(Sorry, the picture's kind of crummy.)

Hand Embroidered Patch Swap III

It may be common knowledge that I am a dork. It may not be common knowledge that on my list of dorky attributes, a long time love of Dr. Who ranks fairly high. This being said, I jumped at the chance to incorporate my infatuation with daleks into this patch.
This seemingly nice fellow called Alden Bates posted a schematic of his interpretation of dalek innards and I couldn't help myself. Line drawings are so perfect for embroidery. I left off the labels so you'll have to refer to the original for reference.

Hand Embroidered Patch Swap II

Patch 2 of 4 for the patch swap. The theme for this one was "rockabilly." I'm not sure what that means, and this might be more billy than rock, but I thought it turned out OK. It's based on a drawing by Mitch O'Connell. Sublime Stitching has a new set of transfers based on his work that are really nice, but I liked this one a little better (plus she's wearing a shirt.)
