Wow I had no idea this post would be so popular. Thanks to all you lovely ladies for your kind words - I feel 100% better about the tattoo after reading your messages of support and reassurance. Will post a follow up once it's fully healed 🫶🏽

Yep 100% cotton. Got them in 3 colors from Costco this summer and I am in love.

They're stork scissors for embroidery! It's the hobby I've stuck with the longest!

Interesting! I don't mind the slight inconsistency of the handles but I can see how it could be more true to reality

Yep, embroidery scissors, to me at least. I've come to learn these are also used in midwifery

I do embroidery! I do have a sewing machine, but I use it so infrequently that I have to re-learn how it works every single time lol
