#FavouriteFriday
Hey makers and creatives, show me your favourite make, or favourite bit of a make, as small as you like 😊. Anything that makes you happy because it came out exactly as hoped, or way better than you'd hoped.
This Victorian inspired #maninthemoon always makes me smile even though he's only a couple of inches across and just a small embellishment to the main #embroidery

Nao-san was quite skeptical when I mentioned the "Man in the Moon", so here's a rough idea of what he looks like... ...I'm not sure it's strengthened my case🤔
From far away it looks a lot more like a face, honestly!😅
Who Is the Man in the Moon?
You’ve seen his face hidden in the moonlight—but do you know the story behind it?
In Roman folklore, the Man in the Moon is no mystical spirit…
He’s a punished peasant, burdened by thorn bushes for working on a sacred day.
A cosmic warning etched in the sky.

Have you ever seen a face in the moonlight?
In German folklore, that face isn’t just imagination — it’s a warning.
Meet Der Mann im Mond — a man cursed for working on the Sabbath, doomed to carry his burden across the night sky for all eternity.
A bundle of sticks.
A shadowed face.

Did you know the Norse saw a boy in the moon—not a man?

Who are they? Why were they taken?
