Election Special

My head had been so full of thoughts about the avant garde and post modernism this week that I was feeling in need of some light relief...

a certain amount of silliness was required...

So what better when staying up late on election night watching the results come in than creating a few of my own monster raving loonies...

And so I bring to you in no particular order... Dashing Dave...

Naughty Nick

and grumpy Gordon.

My own post modern trio.
Which one would you choose...?

Looks like they might have to hang around together after all!

Well I'm not sure which one I'd choose to Hang with, I think I'd have to have a good look at their seat first!!!!!

Fiona said...

I don't like the way Naughty Nick and Dashing Dave are smooching up together.

Give me Grumpy Gordon any day!

Hello! I just caught up with you and recent posts. Always enjoyable reading. Always inspiring work.

Wonderful fun Gina - better than the BBC's over-complex 3D animated paving slabs or a bleary eyed Dimbleby anyday!

PS I fell asleep very quickly!

I like Naughty Nick's colours... Shallow? Moi????

Just found your previous post too.... when did you sneak that one in? I SO recognised those Laura Ashley fabrics!!!!!!!! I had them too..........

Angela said...

Very good.

Mavis said...

Just a thimbleful.....

Talk about strange bedfellows... I notice that Dave is head and shoulders above the other two !!!

But where are all the coloured worms?!

karen said...

it's amazing how much sewing you can get done watching election results come in, I got loads done!!

sandra said...

I think they all need to hang out together. I am wondering if they had botox??

pam said...

Oh wow they are great and much better than the real one's - We should call for a new election immediately!!!

Kitty said...

They're all gorgeous, and could possibly do a much better job than their real-life counterparts!

I have a strong suspicion we're all going to be doing this election thing again within a couple of years!

So, are Nick and Dave chatting happily away cooking up some plans then?

Lucy Locket-Pocket said...

Hee hee! They're fabulous!

Heather said...

I went to bed early and let them get on with it! I like the look of your trio and they'd probably do as good a job of running the country as those we have to rely on.

jude said...

Can you do an Alex Salmond (gotta be a kilt in there somewhere), a Nick Griffin and a Nigel Farage (without any banners or propellers)?

sharon young said...

Fabulous! Just because he looks so great and for no particular party reason (politics are not my thing ) I love Dashing Dave :-)

On this occasion - Gordon gets my vote - but only because he's pink x

I have so enjoyed your entertaining blog. I made a worn and washed quilt for my daughter for Xmas and I can feel another one coming on!
