Really, this won't hurt a bit!

Ah, those sneaky saucepans, luring shy, innocent veggies to their saucy deaths!


I, for one, was so shocked by this saucepan's behavior that I added a stern message below:

In addition to the "death by saucepan" motif, there's a cute cooking boy as well:
Baker got back

If you were around for the first time I shared this pattern, you may have been privy to our comments on the baker's generously-sized derriere. The baker pattern was hereby christened, "Baker got back." See, I don't even have to come up with this stuff. I rely on you guys for the really good ones. :) Also on my sheet, there's a teacup-headed baseball player "stepping up to the plate" (har, har), a smiling flour canister making eyes at a scoop, cross stitch borders and veggies, salt and pepper shakers and salad dressing, smiling milk and mixing bowl, and moustachioed frying pan brandishing a faceless frankfurter while a horrified egg looks on, (whoa, violence galore on this one!) a baking girl that says "Bake on Saturday", and a mammy-looking pattern with a cake. By the way, thank you to my stitching friend Drewzel, for sending me the rest of this pattern!

Knowing the weight of my vintage saucepans -- yes, it will hurt! How about "Sadistic Saucepan" or "Veggie Violence"?

OMG! I just found your blog...it is outstanding! This is just what I have been searching for for so long...often trying to find certain Aunt Martha patterns, etc. to no avail! You are so kind to share these vintage patterns, and I have read back through your whole blog. What a delight! I will have to do the cactus ones, for sure!!! Thankyou!

Hello,just wanted to let you know that this pattern is meant to depict "Little Jack Horner" of the popular nursery rhyme.

Little Jack Horner sat in the corner
Eating his Christmas pie,
He put in his thumb and pulled out a plum
And said "What a good boy am I!"

Thanks very much for sharing these patterns.
