One of these days, when I get some money(yeah, right, lol), I'm going to get you to embroider a Randall shirt for me, not the "cartoonish" one that is on the Disney pins and the embroider designs put out by Brother Embroidery, but one that really looks like him, that or maybe my Studebaker, since your stuff rocks, seriously.

Those are all awesome, I'm envious.

If/when I have money to spend as I please again, I'll see if I can think of something you can make for me.

That's the bee's knees (Or whatever the teens say these days), Sparky!

Hey that is brilliant, Sparky. Funnily enough we had exactly the same image on the front page of our old website, as my colleage styles himself 'The Green Man'. There are some historical variations of the image from various traditions and cultures here:

The Indonesian one on pictures page 1 is my fav.

Finally got the Beetlejuice logo looking decent...this is a patch, almost 8" wide, with a glow-in-the-dark background on the logo part. It looks a little frayed because I ran it through a wash and dry cycle to see how the glow thread holds up (it was fine, but I'm not sure if its bleach safe). I need to special order some iron-on backing so I can make these iron-ons. These will probably go for $20 or $25; I know it sounds high but these take me 4 hours to make so that's only 5 dollars per hour, ignoring materials cost.

That looks awesome, Sparky! Turned out real well, I think, even after being washed. If on an iron on background, it may not fray so much, too. And glow in the dark always gets a thumbs up from me.
