Fresh, new awesome!

I have wanted to make tissue box cozies for a while now, but was stumped on how to make them interesting/awesome.

The answer came to me in a flash: embroidery!

Taking yet another antitquated handicraft and turning it on it's head in my own unique way.

Just in time for the swine flu brew-ha-ha, my pandemic-chic tissue box cozie! (Also, experimenting with taking pictures on my porch)



And, a close up on the embroidery:



To be honest, this embroidery began after a viewing of "28 Days Later", but it's as topical as I've ever been, so I'm running with it.
