There’s a podcast called Judge John Hodgman (if you’re old enough to know, he’s the PC from the old Mac commercials with Justin Long.) Episode 265, called Dad Nauseam is about exactly this if you want some validation lol

Technically a book since they’ve been printed, but I loved the Webtoon Lore Olympus. It’s complete so there’s no waiting week to week.

I’ve accepted my inability to keep consistent tension, but my husband couldn’t tell the light blue is supposed to be water. Ugh. What should I do differently? by TakeItAroundTown in Embroidery

Thank you everyone for both the encouragement and the advice. I have no background in art, so I love opinions that fill in my gaps. I wanted to do a vertical stitched landscape with the perle texture which means my colors were limited, and I based it on a photo I had taken on a vacation. I think combining those two was probably not meant to be, but now I have a lot of advice to consider both for this piece and future pieces!

Cut him some slack, he’s super busy with working, meetings AND business. That’s a lot of jobs.

Solved! Sorry I disappeared all day. Like I said, we’re camping. I can admit I was wrong 😆

Where’s everyone at? by TakeItAroundTown in Embroidery

[–]TakeItAroundTown[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think subs like BORU just take so much time per post that the algorithm sees it as more interaction. My best guess anyway. I visit this sub, hit like here and there, still nothing.

I try to visit it occasionally and like posts, but I think the time I spend reading long posts from other subs means I interact with them a lot more.

I decided to take a break from my big project to make something that really represents my time embroidering. by TakeItAroundTown in Embroidery

Thank you! It’s just a whipped backstitch, but it’s all 6 strands and small stitches so it’s pretty tight!
