New Release - Candypop Narwal

How many people thought that narwals were mystical creatures like unicorns and dragons? YES they are real, nature is so cool!

I stitched my model on 16ct Navy by Wichelt.

Find this design on my extremely affordable and generous Patreon, Tier 2 or Tier 3 for a limited time. All reshares are appreciated!!

As I have begun on my next cross stitch project, and the sheer scale has made me realise it may take a few months at least, I will instead look to my last completed one, a small neat thrush bird! A small finish is nice between the larger ones. Pattern by Jane Greenoff "Wild Birds"

What do you folks use to ink embroidery designs on to fabric? Does it have to be a special kind of fabric?

Sure, I could ask Google, but I like people more than faulty AI.

I saw someone mention drawing their own embroidery designs and thought, 'hey, I can do that!'

It's hazy and cold here in the South, but I hope my homies being impacted by the ice & snow storms are cozy and warm.

I’m all set for the winter storm, how is everyone else?

🧵📚 Dublin, vers 1833 : un manuel d’apprentissage de la couture… avec de vrais échantillons de vêtements intégrés.
On n’est pas sur “regardez le schéma”, mais sur “touchez la matière, observez les points, refaites pareil”. L’ancêtre très sérieux des tutos, sans pub, sans pop-up, sans “abonne-toi”.

Vous aimeriez avoir ça entre les mains, ou vous auriez peur d’abîmer un morceau d’histoire ?

@gdeyke I’ve only recently started #needlework and I have definitely found a difference in how they feel to work with. The floss is much smoother to stitch with and easier to handle than the machine thread.
