It's not super clear from this pic but the text goes along the tail. I'll do Sideburns, Patchy, and Three next, possibly only when I put zippers in them. It's hard to manage the #embroidery knots otherwise.
Also tried FlossCross yesterday, made this crosstitch pattern of a Tiger Barb with a watercolour I painted years ago as a base image.
If anyone would like to try it, let me know!
It has 19 DMC colours.

Trying KXstitch (on Linux) to make crosstitch patterns, a bit of a learning curve but pretty cool!
Now let's see if I can export it in any way :)
Le ptit #défiBroderie qui avance tout doucement (c'est hyper dur parce que j'ai une épaisseur de tissu pas possible entre le tissu éponge + un patch en coton très épais derrière histoire de reboucher le trou dans le torchon...)
Wow. This university student is doing memes in needlework, and I believe they are a wizard. You must see #GrumpyCat in blackwork #embroidery
And Harambe in #needlelace. Among others.
Just go.
I’m getting ready for a tea dying experiment, with some of the cotton threads I thrifted last week.
I’ll let you know how that goes! 😁👏🤞
My favorite pair of home pants developed holes on one thigh. This shall not be borne!
I've been trying #VisibleMending lately, so here's another try. The biggest leaf is large enough to cover all of the holes, but I wanted to add two more leaves for pure visual balance, and embroidered some decorative elements as well.
