If you're a LOST fan then chances are you're, like me, knee deep in the Final Season, and have been running around a mysterious island being chased by a column of black smoke for the last month now. You know who you are. You have theory-battles over your cornflakes of a morning and you possibly use 'the numbers' for the lottery each week.
For all of us LOSTies with crafty leanings I've dug up a handstitched LOST cast to distract you in those empty days when you wait impatiently for the next episode.
Crafty McGee creates applique and embroidered LOST figures which she shows off along with her ideas on where the final season is heading. Warning: there are spoilers ahoy for those who haven't yet caught up with the island action.
You can see the process she uses to make some of her fabulous fibre figures here.
The figures are even backed with a Dharma-printed fabric she made herself. Something I fully intend to track down and make myself an entire wardrobe full of LOSTness with.
Inspired by this example of LOST craft dedication you could make your very own LOST ensemble. Acting out your own ending in the medium of felt and thread, with a stitched Sawyer and handmade Hurley, may be the only way of getting through when it's all over in May.
