calivintage on 365 lucky days!

November 25, 2011

day 66 a

good morning! i hope you are all feeling jolly and well-fed on this glorious day after thanksgiving! i have to head to work, but it was nice to have a short break from the week to celebrate family and food. and my morning was made just a little bit brighter when i discovered that yesterday i was featured as day 66 on 365 lucky days! the incredibly talented lucky jackson embroidered my portrait as part of “blog crush” week in her year-long project to create a new piece of embroidered art every day for 365 days. i first discovered her work through a few of my favorite blogs, so when she approached me about creating my portrait, i nearly died. i mean, seriously, how awesome is that? she even found a fabric that is almost identical to the print on my vintage dress!

in addition to this crazy beautiful piece, which i am so honored to be a part of, she has already created quite a line-up of of impressive portraits. i rounded up a few of my favorites for you to enjoy, but you really have to visit her site to get the full scope. thank you so much, lucky!

That project is absolutely amazing! She is such a talented artist! I really should think hard and find some photography project to devote a little time every day! No wonder you’re thrilled by your portrait! :)
