And it's a wrap on my very first #embroidery project. I did a lot of mistakes. I posted a close-up photo so they can be ogled and hopefully, learned from (what not to do).

I have 3 patterns awaiting to be embroidered and I'm going to draw from a hat tomorrow what to do next. Here's to getting better at it!💪

PS.
Please allow me to title and put a hashtag/counter on each finished work so I can see them all in a hashtag click.

@mesdoigtsmaladroits Whatever the perceived "mistakes" might be, this is absolutely beautiful. Both far away AND up close!

@mesdoigtsmaladroits mistakes? Your French knots are beautifully done.

@CatDragon Thank you very much. They're the most convenient stitch because when I mess up, I just cut my thread just so since it's already knotted on the fabric. 😅

@mesdoigtsmaladroits there are no mistakes, only “design choices”. Beautiful work!

@colettesp Oh, thank you very much. It's been bugging me to make this kind of art and so I just gave in and bought a kit. Here I am now. 😁

@mesdoigtsmaladroits this is lovely! Well done, I look forward to seeing what pattern wins the draw!

@alice_digest Thank you very much. Oh no, pressure. 😅✌️ I drew a cat that looks like an otter. Considerable amount of short and long stitches that I miserably failed to do on this first one.

@mesdoigtsmaladroits That's so beautiful! I would never have guessed it was your first.

It makes me think I could do this kind of embroidery. May I ask where you found the pattern?

@lady_alys Thank you very much for those kind words. I got it in our local Shopee shopping site but I also found them on AliExpress. www.aliexpress.com/i/1005004521769835.html
