This is one of the strangest craft projects I’ve ever seen. Becky Stern says she plans to continue working on different segments of the MRI to see how her project will turn out.

    Haha, love it! For some reason I had always wanted to be a knee surgeon. :P And I love anatomically correct things! Skill- you has it.

    I sent this to my sister. She's a student nurse who's been embroidering as a hobby for years.

    Of course, my reaction is more "ew" than "ooh!", but that's why she's the nurse and not me.

    It does look a lot like bacon, and maybe a little less than an actual sagittal image through the knee. There are small things wrong with the image (patella too high, orange thing doesn't correspond to anatomy .. unless it's supposed to a baker's cyst in which case it's in the wrong spot, black thing coming off the back of the femur should be the PCL by the way it's shaped, but the tibia is shaped like a hockey stick instead of a golf tee, which means that it's the lateral plateau... the PCL comes off the femur medially not laterally), but overall good effort. I applaud.
