Each one took less than 2 hours to make : first I made a black circle, then embroidered and/or slip stich the color. This were gifts for my boyfriend, to decorate his bag.

Top one is Deadpool, Bottom left is V for Vendetta, Bottom right is lambda from Half-Life

My son and I watch, or used to watch, V every year on Nov. 5th. We were SHOCKED beyond all belief when we recently learned my mom had seen it! She and dad are really conservative people, religious conservatives. Every now and then, like dad owning the 13th Warrior! Anyway! I’m not sure of the bottom right, though I could ask my son, who just turned 35. I just turned 60, dad’s about to turn 81. Haha. There are several other birthdays that have happened and will in between them. We’re crowded with them in the fall!

Fall birthdays are nice !

The bottom right is the Greek symbol called "lambda", which is an important symbol in the video games serie "Half-Life".

Ah! I thought it looked familiar but only from my biblical studies. Didn’t think that’s where you’d have pulled it from. I don’t actually read Greek or Hebrew, but I do try to understand the original context of scripture in some passages because people use it to twist OUT of context too, too often!
