TatiMitStiftI've done some embroidery. Unfortunately I ran out of yarn, so I had to leave some spaces empty. Still looks nice, if you ask me.

It is not completely done, but I wanted to show it off. I'm also not really satisfied with the shadows, because the letters obscure them quite much. And so it more looks like blots of dark blue. But I'm learning as I go.
InarticulateQuilter@t_robinart gorgeous and timely!
(Your flowers are so different from anything I’ve seen stitched on Aida cloth; very cool and well done)

Thank you! 🌻
I initially did them in cross stitch, but it just didn't look nice. Maybe because I'm unexperienced, maybe because the wrong ct, I don't know. But I once saw a picture of an embroidery on what I think was linen. Flowers of different colours surrounding the word LOVE. And so I tried that style. And I'm glad it turned out that nicely. 😅

@t_robinart I’m so glad I mentioned them then. I only occasionally cross-stitch and just thought it was a technique I was unaware of. I love that instead you saw something you liked and made it work; very innovative!

Thank you again!
This is just the second time I've embroidered something, and I only did cross stitch once, so don't expect me to do something super fancy, haha.
I guess my main problem is my lack of patience. I see something that I like (a technique, colour palette, etc.), have an idea, but don't want to put my all into perfecting it. So I then just try to make it work somehow. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. This time it did.

Monique van Munsteranything with curves, such as flowers, don't look really nice in cross stitch, because you cann't make curves... this is well done!
