Miss Trunchbull from Matilda was a big fan of cross stitching (because she was always cross).
I currently see a huge gap in the cross stitching market for Irish celebrities. Now is the time to strike.
So I’ve taken the liberty of immortalising some of our most famous Irish faces by affixing them to fabric with various coloured threads. The following series of cross stitchings were years in the making. Hopefully, the chosen celebrities are all still relevant.
Teresa Mannion – Don’t take cross on treacherous stitching
Samantha Mumba – Baby Come On Over to cross stitch
Mikey Graham – Boy, stay inside the cross stitch zone
Bella from Fair City – “I’ve been stitched up”
Brendan O’Carroll – This cross stitch is 10x better than Mrs Brown’s Boys.


Louis Walsh – It’s a yes from me
