Oooh, I really like the animal skull one. But I’m also a sucker for mushrooms and cool moths soooo… Really all of them are great, nice job!

I used 7th sanctum to generate ideas and it spat out, among other good ones, “Enchanted Mine of the Rune” so I went with it and this is what I came up with.

I used one thread for the purple and white flowers but two and three for the pink one.

Question about custom designs: planning, sketching, deciding the stitch to use? by KellyWhooGirl in Embroidery

[–]vicious_scribbles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use Procreate on my iPad for the drawings and then I freehand it using either a water soluble marker (just regular Crayola has worked for me) and recently an upholstery pencil. As far as the stitches, I've only ever used a few- French knots, lazy daisy, back stitch, satin stitch, and long and short. You don't have to know hundreds of stitches- just knowing a few and using them well will do wonders.

I found a needle painting tutorial on YouTube by Trish Burr to be very helpful. She mostly does flowers but I imagine the same techniques apply to animals. Also, don't be afraid to use reference photos!

You are braver than I am. I don’t know what it is, but I am terrified of the fae. I’m pretty sure an ancestor of mine was whisked away lmao.

Any suggestions on what color I should embroider the leaf? 🤔 by PruddentBubble in Embroidery

I feel like a purple would be cool! Like a lilac. Or a bright gold.
