Slowly working my way through the prototypes of my upcoming designs, yesterday with the second sea slug magnet!
I’m super happy with it, though I might adjust the shape of the foot flappies a bit.

Coral reef collection should arrive mid to end of September!

Picture of a handmade felt magnet resting on my fingers that are held up flat, overlooking lush gardens. The magnet represents a purple sea slug, it is the size of two phalanges of my hand. It’s body is two shades of pink and its foot is made of two pink an ivory flaps that are sewn through the body. It has yellow antennas on its head, and flower-shaped gills on its back. Little white eyes are embroidered between the antennas, and a few pink iridescent pearls decorate its back.

In other news, I've been working on this bit of embroidery for far longer than I should have, and am in the process of unpicking bits of it to redo them...
The bumblebee isn't at all as defined and fresh looking as I'd like, and needs more dimension... But here we are.
Also I don't know how to use my photo editing software yet. 😭

#Embroidery

A sort of purple or lilac daisy embroidered onto a bit of patchwork. There's a bumblebee, half finished on it. The leaves are done in two different variegated green threads and leaf stitch, with the stem a multicoloured split stitch. The satin stitch of the flower petals looks a bit bland and flat despite there being a bunch of colours used... On the left side there are two petals with a little more life to them, and a third one with a bit unpicked and showing the area being reworked. It's fiddly. Sini's pale fingers in frame. The colours are all a bit off and lacking the usual vibrancy.

Nice. I embroidered two little flowers on the other shoe.
They're hugging! There will be a purple patch on the toe cap so i left space for the patch. I'll probably add more flowers to the shoe once the patch is on.

One more flower. This one is crocheted and then i stitched a little bead to the middle and embroidered around it. It's like a pink daffodil now.

Only took me 3 years to finish! It is 8x8 inches, 18 count Aida. Over 20,000 stitches/pixels. #crossstitch #embroidery #sewing#StarWars

I picked up cross stitch when sick with #LongCovid. As I got healthy, and ran out of a couple thread colors, I set it down. Did not pick it up until I went on vacation a couple weeks ago, and needed a project. And I finished it!

The pattern designer is Awesome Pattern Studio on Etsy, and they are a Ukrainian pattern maker. Love the use of color and color blocking. Have done a couple of her pieces and they are always striking.

Not sure I will do another all over cross stitch due to the amount of time they take, but I love the results.

An all-over cross stitch design, resembling a tapestry. The design is from Star Wars, and had 2 at-ats (tanks on long spindly legs with wide feet) walking on a beach. In the background is palm trees, the Death Star (that's no moon!) And a moon. The design is in a pixel art style, color blocked in shades of black, blue, gray orange and white.
