Hello again! Here I am with some more embroidery stuff, this time with upgraded materials (ikr, incredible) 1 & 2. Intended to be a card/gift or sorts. I’m still not sure on how to display finished works, so I kind of just haphazardly stitched the sides back so they look neater- I got this smaller 7cm hoop which is a delight to work with, especially since larger stuff usually requires more commitment, which I’m scared of 3. Another card/gift! The flowers became less of a pain to sew once I discovered some new stitches I was looking up flower embroidery and they had these beautiful 3D ones that seem very complicated, and I hope I can tackle them someday but this project was not the one, seeing as I’m still an amateur and basically had a two day limit 4. NEW THREAD WOOOOO this makes me unreasonably happy 5. A wip of a whale I (perhaps stupidly) decided to hand cut bobbins from card and manually wrap the embroidery floss around them to make things easier in the future. I’ve only done twelve and it has taken me an embarrassingly long amount of time so we’ll see if I carry on with it
Zoom - @colorsnatch (What would I do without them) Art - me The exams are finally over (and have been for several weeks but we’re not going to talk about that), which could mean extra posts, or probably extra time spent staring at the ceiling and wasting time on my phone I’ve gotten into these French learning podcasts and I love listening to them but am not sure how much learning is actually being done It’s probably just me over here romanticising the French language like most other people (it’s not my fault it sounds so lovely), along with various historic fictions and online aesthetics Either way, it’s a fantastic companion to embroidering stuff, and I guess I’ll tell you if I suddenly become a genius Have a wonderful rest of your day <3
