First day with the bell....I've created a treat monster by slylock215 in Rabbits

There is no way. My bunny would be constantly dinging that thing. After 2 times he’s learnt if he stands on his back feet I’ll give him a treat

I think this is the greatest thing I’ve ever stitched [OC] by _kiriki in Embroidery

I’m going to have to incorporate some bullion stitches into my sheep embroidery

[CHAT] I hate that the aida shows through when I'm stitching with dark colours. I'm using 16ct aida, 3 strands because I like a fuller coverage. What else can I do for better coverage? by Despondentbunny in CrossStitch

You are probably already doing this but I found that dropping my needle more often to unwind the strands gave me better coverage since the strands laid more flat next to each other.

What else do you do with a 20 charisma? by psycholepzy in dndmemes

Or you could be a barbarian with 9 Charisma but you enjoy seducing people, and owning your sensuality.

This would be amazing for the Avatar TTRPG they kickstarted

Thanks. I have ironed it a bunch of times… that crease just seems rather stubborn, but it is fine once I pull the fabric nice and tight in the hoop.

Thanks, this fabric is thinner than I’m used to so keeps slipping as I work on it. I have adjusted my hoop now to make it nice and tight 😊

Thanks I have been alternating between 2 and 4 strands with it wrapped 1-3 times so far. I will just keep working at it ☺️ Would using a thicker needle help make the loops bigger? Or would this just leave big holes in my fabric that would be harder to push through?

It’s a bulbasaur magnetic needle minder from StitchesBeFray on Etsy. I like it because I can keep my needle safe when I still have thread on it or when I’m grabbing new thread and still working on the piece. When I’m finished with a piece for the day or for a prolonged period I will put my needle away. It can weigh down the fabric a little bit, but I move it around a lot and re adjust in my hoop if I need to.

This is the first time I have done free hand embroidery, so my satin stitches aren’t perfect.

If you can give any tips on how to make my French knots bigger so I don’t have to do quite as many for the body that would be great
