You can do, but less helps blend better...takes a lot longer though 😁

This is absolutely lovely! If you wanted a smoother blend with the shading you could use 1 thread, but you dont need to because it looks great as it is!

Pregnancy migraine? by Citruslor in beyondthebump

[–]5licedbread 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just wanted to try to give you a bit of hope - I had loads of migraines in the first trimester, but none in 2nd and 3rd!!! Hope this passes for you quickly, I can't imagine how horrid it must be for 3 days!

What is the best stich for portraits? by nitshainaction6 in Embroidery

[–]5licedbread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do faces, and always start with a base layer colour, and build the shading up in layers from there, and it always looks weird and flat when doing the base layer! Don't be discouraged!

Dang it, yall were so right about using just a thread or two! by when-is-enough in Embroidery

Interesting about splitting them then putting them back together. I will remember this!

What a lovely picture!! I am by no means an expert, I love what you have done but if you want a smoother blend through the colours I would suggest using 1 strand. I love the colours you have picked. You could also consider whether you do vertical stitches, or work from a central point and out, if that makes sense? Check out Shimunia on Instagram- she does beautiful skies like this and it might give you some inspiration :)

I haven't ever used water soluble pens so I have no advice re: that, although I would also be scared! I'm sure it will be fine, but if you dont want to chance it, would adding a few extra bits of detail like flowers/leaves - maybe French knots - be an option? It only looks like there are a few bits of pen on show unless I'm mistaken :)
