EMBROIDERY 2022

Embellishments

Stuff I've put on clothes!

A stylized dragonfly embroidered in purple on a white t=shirt.
A dragonfly I embroidered on one of my old t-shirts to spruce it up a bit. It's on the upper back!
White cotton cloths with blanket-stitched edges in rainbow colors.
I wanted some cotton face clothes I could use to clean my face off, apply toner, that sort of thing. The cloth is a thrifted cotton bedsheet. I'd go on to use the rest to line a skirt later. The embroidery thread I had at the time had the Gilbert pride flag colors, so I did them in that rainbow. I like having these in my bathroom a lot.

Patches

Patches I have made for other people! And probably eventually myself.

An embroidered opossum wearing a flower crown holding flowers.
A patch I made for a very sweet Possum!
Here's a look at the glittery thread on the outside :)
An embroidered brown bear wearing a black shirt with the Slipknot S on it.
I didn't take a picture of this once I got it off the hoop and into a patch, but this is a bear that likes Slipknot for my partner.

Misc and Sewing

I don't really have enough sewing projects to dedicate a full sewing page yet so here's a skirt I made.

View from the front of the circle skirt. At this point I didn't have a waistband; this was just to see if it fit.
Bucky holding one side of a circle skirt out away from them.
It's a full circle all the way around.
Bucky holding up the buttoned placket of a circle skirt. ALl of the buttons are different.
I got some buttons I was excited about using, so I picked some that were mostly the same size and let them mix and match.
The circle skirt laying on the back of a plaid chair, now with a waistband.
Later I added a tie waistband quickly with some very janky ties (I would use bias tape next time at least), and that holds it up and makes it look a bit more finished.
