Play a stitchy game with Mollie

April 21, 2010 by Denise Felton 2 Comments

I love Mollie Johanson‘s brain. She has invented a stitching game to play while you watch your favorite TV show or movie. She says, “The idea is simple: start stitching, change stitches when something specific happens.” She created the stitchery shown here while enjoying an episode of Spongebob Squarepants. I’m already trying to think of a way to apply it to American Idol — twice a week, starting tonight! Get all the details from Mollie’s Wild Olive blog.

    Thanks for posting this here! American Idol would be so fun…and there’s even a pattern in the PDF that resembles a music staff! What if you assign a stitch for when Simon says something positive, negative or makes a joke…have fun!
