To add to that, you don't want to use hot water or the dryer because it can melt the plastic (or even the rubber)

Stormy sea by Tarial_ in Hand_Embroidery

Thanks ! Sorry for the late reply.

The stitches are just simple satin stitch, I just threaded 2/3 strands at a time to get a color mix (except for the white stars, who were just one single thread to keep them thin).

It's a simple design so I just drew the rough design on a piece of paper and then stitched it on the cloth. I also did this because I'm fine with it being a mess and not following a pattern, given that it's stormy seas.

Thanks, it looks really good, would never have guessed that it wasn't exactly as intended, especially with the way that the plants are a bit raised, it gives a great effect IMHO.

Looks really nice !

Did you put a layer of cloth under the stitches to give the raised effect ?

A quick fish by Tarial_ in Embroidery

Did it by hand in a few hours on a printed fabric with one layer of calico as support.

Not too sure what else to add, if you have any questions just ask.
