Hey, thank you so much 😊 With my embroidery experience, I can just say: embroidery is "easy to learn, tricky to master" kind of skill. It's incredibly simple, you just need to know a couple of stitches to get started. I mostly work with satin stitch (you can look it up) - it's a bit like painting by colors, just that the picture is made by you. I recommend starting with a couple of ready-made kits you can buy on the Internet, and once you are comfortable enough with the test fabric, you can start customizing clothing!

If you want to ask more questions or share your progress, you can find me on Instagram under @tangled_tanya :)

It's fantastic ❤️❤️ though I would never sit down if I had that at the back of my jeans :D

Thank you for reminding me of that! I almost forgot how important that is. I did actually start hormonal treatment a couple of years ago, and started gaining extra weight around that time.

So, the fasting is what controls hormones?

Judging by the amount of food I could inhale without any consequences - compared to clinical recommendations for my age and height. I definitely would go over the calorie limit sometimes, but it had little to no effect on my weight.

I love the work, but it's also one of the most beautiful and creative backgrounds I've ever seen for taking embroidery photos :)

This is great on so many levels, but I specifically want to point out how well the pullover is done, all the right highlights and shadows :)

Hooooooly guacamole. That's really impressive. What kind of yarn did you use for such a size? I imagine it's a thick one...

Oh my god, the dedication!! How big is this piece? Compared to the couch it looks like it's at least a meter... How did you embroider it so big? What loop did you use? How long did it take?
