Stitched Saturday – This weeks challenge

Remember the Crypt keeper from (the often awesome) Tales from the Crypt? He'd be introducing these pictures with a cackled "Greetings boys and ghouls, and welcome to another Stitched Saturday Challenge!". Sadly, the Crypt keeper isn't available. He frankly charges too much by the hour, and he's next to impossible to work with. Therefore, you're …

Stitched Saturday

Welcome to another (belated) Stitched Saturday! The pictures for the inspiration this week were suitably gothic in theme, and we have two tales for you this week.  The razor-sharp mind of Mike L Lane gives us a smart slice of horror entitled The Dedicated Fool, and there's a little something from me called The Evil …

It was two years ago this week that horror legend Christopher Lee departed this mortal realm at the age of 93.

Stitched Saturday

What horror do you imagine in the dark future? Last week, I posted a themed challenge prompt, to paint a vision of a future very much removed from our current times. Only a few people were able to participate this time around, Mike Lane, Nick Paschall, and myself. Here they are, with the inspiration picture …
