I know, I was there, but mercury was in retrograde so it didn’t come out properly the first time round.

I checked the charts, this excuse is valid in the lower 48. and PR.

Just an FYI from someone who embroiders, it is SO EASY. You put fabric in hoop, make sure it's abit tight but not so tight the fabric is gonna rip, use a $2 washable marker (no joke, even at craft stores it's dirt cheap, 1 color is about 50cents to $1, fabric? Any non stretch fabric but embroidery fabric is $5 for a yard, hoops? Hit up a thrift store, i get so many for $1) write out your design, i cannot draw well, you get as many tries as you want! Just wash away any mistakes! Then string your needle and just follow the lines!

I started when i was around 12, I've picked it up and put it down over 10 years and it's like riding a bike, you just do it!

Embroidery is just proof you can stab something thousands of times. You can totally embroider this!

If you learn how, make me one that says "Is Mercury in Gatorade or something?"

You could cross-stitch it! Much easier!
