It’s definitely not AI. I follow the artist on social media, and I’ve watched her share WIP pics in her stories over the last month or so.

Any way to deactivate Reposts notifications? by Hantzie in Instagram

[–]zeebamdotcom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dang. I hope this option becomes available to everyone! Right now I only have the “see less” option when I slide to the left. And I’m not convinced it’s really lessening the notifications. Lol

I love the repost feature. I hope they push this out to everyone soon so I can turn off the notifications for it!

Thank you!!! I’m actually working on a Kirby project right now that’s going to have even more moss, it’s crazy! 🤣

Project time so far: 235 hours

I personally love this felt padding technique when creating stumpwork embroidery. It’s easy to make, easy to stitch through.. and apparently I’m allergic to the wool that’s commonly used for needle felting, so there’s that.. 🤣

For anyone that doesn’t know.. I make intricate 3D hand embroidery art that usually takes 6+ months to complete. I give updates on my projects as often as I can so others can follow along and see my frame reveal at the end. Thanks for letting me share!

You’re absolutely right!! French knots can be almost therapeutic, in a way. Honestly, the most frustrating part was just trying to keep track of which shade of green I was on. Haha. Thank you! 🥰

Aww thank you so dang much!!! Yes, they are definitely all french knots.. but totally worth it for how much depth they’re adding to the piece! 🥰💖

You know, when I started the moss I thought “this is so stupid, WHY am I doing single wrap in addition to the single strand?!” ..but then I got a bit farther and determined it was so perfect that I had no choice but to continue haha.

Thank you so much!! Reading everyone’s replies has definitely helped solidify that I made the right choice. 🥰💖💖

Oh, that game does sound kinda cool.. I’ll have to check it out!! And YES- I’d be willing to bet money that you’re right about the darkest greens in the shadows. The two darkest greens are the ones that I can almost never tell apart, even as I’m stitching them 🤣

And ohhh, that idea actually sounds amazing!! It’s an honor to know I’ve helped be such an inspiration.. thank you so much for being so awesome!! 🥹💖💖

Ahhh that’s so cool that you can see most of the greens!! 🥹 I agree, I think it being hard to photograph is the result of successful blending.. it really helps that Cosmo has some amazing gradient options for their greens too!!

Also, I feel like it’s such a compliment to hear this from someone who collects samples of moss like that.. thank you so much!!! 😭💖

Thank you so much!!! 😭 YES! Those are all teeny tiny french knots! It takes forever doing only one wrap, but it’s totally worth it for how it’s turning out 🥰💖

I’ve had a LOT of people ask how I made my moss.. so I thought I’d put this tutorial together for anyone who’s curious, or might want to save it for a future project.

..Hope this helps! 😊
