This account will scratch the itch of 'mes doigts maladroits' (my clumsy fingers, in french) for some hardcore...

#embroidery.

Yep.

Brace yourselves.
😅
Note: I am republishing this post because I browsed to this profile on my main fediverse account and it is not shown there. Hopefully this republishing fixes that. AND YES, I'm still embroidering, bit by bit, organizing things and missing posting here. I'll post more very soon!

I know, I know. But I'm back. My 5th one is still on-going but look at these new things I got for my 6th and so on projects.


I got 100 of those flat plastic spool things, a nightmare to pickup from the floor after exploding out of its plastic wrap so I had to group them as such, on a need basis.

Also, I just realized I need to spool 15 skeins.

This
#embroidery abomination is finally done! (it's the black fabric😂)

Am I saying no to black fabric, yes, but just for now. Even though I agonized doing embroidery on black fabric, like a few fellow embroidebuds here on the
#fediverse said, it is worth the end result.

I'm back and here's my 4th #embroidery pattern! I will follow the 2-strand instruction on this pattern since it seems that it would look better that way when the individual stitches are thinner and theoretically, would "blend" better with other stitches. #MDM004 And it's black. :black_sparkling_heart: 📎

@Judeet88 Chaos shirt, for when you need to go out all dressed up but you don't want to go at all. Just blame the buttons.
Weather is getting better, not the previous meltingly-hot and icky, so I was able to stitch some stitches in this black abomination each night. 😂

I'm really glad I got this white marker helping me stay somehow in "grain" (I don't know the word for it).
#embroidery #wip #stitchON!
Yes, I am still here.

Among other things that took priority over my
#embroidery bit, it has been hotAF lately. So damn hot. Even at night. And I can't relax and meditate as I embroider without dripping wet in sweat.

But still, tooting along this challenging abomination that is black fabric.

@ashleyspencer Punch needle embroidery looks relaxing.
My current embroidery is kind of giving me unease.

My eyes get tired too easily when doing embroidery on black fabric. I'm not pushing myself so I only get to do little by little.

Aside from a headlamp that still hasn't arrived, I might outline everything first and then fill it in. Like do everything that's hard to see first and just go ham filling it all in.

I wish there are white-plated needles.

@ejk I can't see it yet because my eyes get too tired with the black fabric.😭😅✌️But I'll definitely stitchon.
@earthtoneone I might use an overhead LED light along with a lamp to somewhat ease this embroidery burden of mine. 😆
@popchicken Thanks!
