This week I wanted to take a look at the embroidered eye. I found several, so get ready, there are a lot to see. 
This huge, detailed piece by Mrs Gibson is so realistic, it looks like it was sketched in thread.
A cyclops flower is weird, fun, and totally unexpected, like a lot of the great stuff made by Crazy But Cute.
Luiza Chandy embroiders with and on usual materials – something you can see in her flickr photostream. This piece is stitched with cooper wire.
This wearable eye patch was embellished with a portrait of her own eye by the talented Nicole Wolfersberger. You can see Nicole modeling it here.
This gang of giant eyes was created and herded together by Spooky Daddy. Spooky indeed.
Sometimes the right frame takes an embroidery to the next level. Kirsty Neale used vintage glasses as a frame from this piece. Works very well, don’t you think?
This pair was embroidered by sallytheskellington one day when she was snowed in and decided to practice the long and short stitch. I love the way the colors blend into each other.
Corrine B made this creepy contribution. Her work is always so fabulous and freaky!
This famous eyeball was stitched by manbroiderer extraordinaire Johnny Murder for the Phat Quarter anatomy swap. I feel as though it is looking into my very SOUL.
I hope you enjoyed this perusal of peepers. (I’m sorry, once I thought of it, I had to type it!) See you next week!
Beefranck’s Emporium is brought to you by Kreinik‘s gorgeous silk and metallic threads. Go get some!
