Auction Title The Sandman Cross Stitch
Alt. Auction Title(s) --
Auction Donator(s) Sarah Serinde
Auction Description Neil Gaiman's Sandman series is full of engrossing stories and beautiful art, and The Sandman: Overture is no different. Based on the book's gorgeous artwork by J.H. Williams III and Dave Stewart, this cross stitch features Morpheus soaring towards home against the colourful background of the Dreaming. It took roughly 350 hours to stitch over the course of four months, and uses 111 colours of thread. The hand-dyed fabric has an opalescent shimmer to it, and there are hints of sparkle in Dream's robes. The piece measures 10.25 by 14.25 inches, and is framed in masterwork acrylic, which is lightweight, shatterproof, and protected from UV rays.
Craft-Along?
Crafter Bio Sarah has been a crafter since her early teens and a geek since she learned how to read, so it was only a matter of time until she found a way to combine the two. She also works as an editor, where she gets to be a geek about the English language. When she isn't busy with overly ambitious embroidery projects (and sometimes even when she is), Sarah is a moderator for Desert Bus, LoadingReadyRun, and several other communities. This is her twelfth year contributing to the craft-along, and she's excited to finally get around to doing a Sandman piece for Desert Bus. It's been a long time coming.
