Emily Beer produces all kinds of art, including lovely embroidered works. Her series called Jaime le Cinema (I Love Movies) recreates familiar movie posters in embroidery, with some patchwork and crochet involved as well. Click to the right to see some of the finer details of The Wizard of Oz above, or Singing in the Rain below.
Beer's taste in movies is not limited to classic musicals, though. She has stitched posters for The Shining, King Kong, Jaws, and E.T.: the Extraterrestrial, along with other movies, including French films that you might not be as familiar with. While the details are somewhat limited by the medium, the themes are well illustrated by her design decisions, like the ethereal chiffon skirt on her poster of The Seven-Year Itch, or the semi-detached lower jaw on the shark in the Jaws poster. See more of Beer's embroidered movie posters in this gallery and at Instagram. -via Messy Nessy Chic
