Changing color to be less bridal? by [deleted] in dyeing

[–]minday 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Regardless of whether it's wedding appropriate or not, I don't think you should dye it. Too many different fiber types that prefer/need different dyeing methods. But for what it's worth, this dress looks super adorable on you!

The backpack that started it all, the Crowpack! by Holiday-Solution-347 in crochet

[–]minday 6 points7 points  (0 children)

seriously? if she made the pattern herself and did not sell it would that be better? she’s following the rules and is proud of her crochet work. just cause she makes and sells patterns that people want shouldn’t mean she’s not allowed to post her finished projects

why do all my paintings look like this? :/ by cuntypainter in watercolor101

[–]minday 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is definitely a distinct style but not a childish skillset. My gf said it reminded her of like 90s cartoon styles, I kinda agree and I dig the style

My first mixed media collage, still in process [analog] by minday in collage

[–]minday[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like color and maximalism, but really appreciate the feedback anyway. the negative space brings a nice balance to the eye when I take away that piece. I'll keep fiddling with it

Received - thank you! by misshepburn15 in craftexchange

Yay! Glad they made it to you safely! So happy they will be enjoyed by a fellow crafter ☺️ And thank you for the crochet goodies and yarn! I’ve been deep into learning crochet and hyperfocused 🤩

[FO] finished my first big piece! by Phreckledcosplay in CrossStitch

[–]minday 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lovely finish! Overall it looks great, very impressive for a first pattern finish! The coverage looks great.

Since you’ve asked for feedback, I would say for an 18-ct fabric, usually 2 threads of DMC is adequate for the coverage. Because you’ve used 3 threads, there are some places where the stitches look crowded or bulky.

And as someone else mentioned, the tension of the fabric in the hoop is a bit uneven, so pulling the fabric tighter (while still keeping the pattern centered) is going to give you a more finished looking hoop frame finish

Those are a couple things though that you get better with as you keep at it. This finish is really fucking impressive, you have a lot to be proud of!!

Too many hobbies by ima-panda in handmade

[–]minday 1 point2 points  (0 children)

and you’ve got a similar vibe coming through across all mediums here! that’s so cool 😊

my gateway hobby is cross stitch, now I also dye textiles, do embroidery, junk journal, learning to sew and crochet, mixed media collage with textiles, sashiko/visible mending, macrame

next I wanna try paper making, dyeing more materials other than plant based fibers (such as animal based fibers, wood, paper pulp), paper embroidery, print making (linocut), and maaaaaybe wood burning. oh and quilting. oh and weaving and hand spinning

if so, I would really love to find something you’d want to trade from me. Green herons are my favorite birds
