OK this is more like what I mean





It comes from a site called Radical Cross Stitch (Australian):
Earthsharing Australia has a campaign to visually demonstrate the true picture of the housing affordability crisis. Every time you hear the real estate lobby arguing for more land release on the fringes of cities, ask yourself what they’re doing with the land that’s already zoned residential, already has infrastructure and in heaps of cases already has a house on it!

So we decided to do a cross stitch about the I Want To Live Here Campaign to highlight to the people of Newcastle the madness that is going on in their own city.
I'm not only interested in fabric/sewing related things, but I suppose they are stereotypically 'anti-masculine'. I'm not even looking for that really... It's about resistance without the blood and sweat, and probably without the bombs to be fair. I don't know... but it's absolutely not about feminism.

Matt's right in that I have no content. I have no target. This is what I need.

But if my target had been property developers, I think this is how I would like to have approached it.
