Very nice idea but the strips look a little fake to me

What idea, people?! Stitches'n'lips huh... now where have i seen it before?.. oooh riiiiight, IT'S BEEN DONE A ZILLION TIMES!!! ure lucky ive no vp author

Thanks Akassa. Stoli4naq...yes it's been done a zillion time, kind of like butterflies and faires I suppose. I feel with the the colors of the image, along with the symbolic "stitches", to be more representative of my feelings. Thanks for the input and be glad your freedom of speech has been heard.

I like the color. The eye of the needle needs some work (bottom seems to be transparent) and the SBS is incomplete.

Oh that must hurt...lol...nice

Ouch That Looks like it Hurts, Well done

What about some blood dripping? Soooo gothic... Good work

Nice job, author! The needle really accents this!
