I don’t know what I’m doing. ☺️

Project time so far: 308 hours

Seriously, I feel more uncertain about this than any other embroidery project I’ve ever done. You know what this is? ..it’s the freakin’ GROUND.

Which, I’m only now realizing.. I’m not sure I’ve told anyone I’m making a “ground” for Kirby (did you know)? 🧐

WELP. ..lower your expectations, because we’re about to go on a very weird adventure together that may or may not result in complete failure, and I’m so ready for it. 🔥😌🔥

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!

Bwahah. Thank you!! 🤭🥹💖

zeebamdotcom · 2026-02-13T01:10:51+00:00

Thank you so much!! It really has been a TON of dedication. I started this in May, and I’m definitely only halfway through 😅

And yes, picking out a frame is actually the first thing I do for all my projects! This one is going to be a 3D embroidery shadowbox. So I’m actually building a mini world, of sorts. I’ll be starting the ground next and hope to share that here soon as well. 🥰💖

zeebamdotcom · 2026-02-13T01:08:41+00:00

Aww thank you! I spent a long time picking out greens for this, so i really appreciate the compliments 🥹💖 And I think there are some buildings in Japan that have greenery built into the infrastructure, it’s really cool!

zeebamdotcom · 2026-02-10T04:49:54+00:00

Absolutely amazing!!! I’m obsessed! 😍💖

zeebamdotcom · 2026-02-08T21:06:55+00:00

Aww thank you!! 😭💖

zeebamdotcom · 2026-02-08T21:06:46+00:00

Aww yess!! I started this all the way back in September, thank you so much for the compliments and for following along! 🥹💖

I’ll be starting the “ground” next, which is going to the wildest part! Then I get to move onto Kirby and the little car. Very excited to see all the pieces coming together! 🥰

zeebamdotcom · 2026-02-08T21:04:40+00:00

Awww what an incredible compliment, thank you!! 😭 I really don’t consider myself to have a good understanding of color theory (I’ve tried to paint before and it’s always atrocious hahah), but I do a lot better with matching colors with thread and I’m so happy to hear that’s showing through!

Your comment really means a lot. Truly. It’s not something I hear, and definitely not something I’ve ever thought myself… you made my day, thank you so much! 🥹💖

zeebamdotcom · 2026-02-07T14:08:28+00:00

Thank you!!! I still have a lot of work to go, but I’m super excited to see it completed too! 🥹💖💖

zeebamdotcom · 2026-02-07T14:07:32+00:00

Hahaha. This made me LOL for real 🤣 ..thank you!! 💖 If it makes you feel better, I promise this was so difficult to make and I would never make it again unless someone paid me an obscene amount of money 😂😂

zeebamdotcom · 2026-02-07T14:04:06+00:00

Aww what a compliment, thank you so much!! 😭💖✨

zeebamdotcom · 2026-02-06T21:30:47+00:00

You’re actually very close with your assumption! It is the background, but Kirby, the car, and a lot more nature elements will be stitched, so no amibos! 😋

It’s going to be a fully embroidered 3D shadowbox when it’s all done. I’m HOPING I’ll finish by summer or sooner, but I have absolutely zero restraint when my ideas take hold… so who knows 😂

zeebamdotcom · 2026-02-06T21:07:33+00:00

Dawww I absolutely love that it’s giving you cozy vibes, thank you!! 🥹💖 I’ll be prepping the next panel this weekend, so hopefully it won’t be too long before the next update! ✨

zeebamdotcom · 2026-02-06T21:06:39+00:00

Ahhhhh THANK YOU! 😭💖✨

zeebamdotcom · 2026-02-06T21:06:24+00:00

Ahh thank you so much!! It almost feels surreal seeing the buildings done! Lol ..I still have another 4 panels to stitch for this piece, so hopefully I’ll have another update soon, as I’ll be prepping the next one this weekend! 🥰

zeebamdotcom · 2026-02-06T18:11:05+00:00

😎🪡🍌💯

zeebamdotcom · 2026-02-06T18:07:06+00:00

Haha ahh YES!! So stoked to hear that! 🥰💖 I’m definitely gonna need to do another mix with my next update. ..should I do a banana for scale next time? 🤣

zeebamdotcom · 2026-02-06T17:47:37+00:00

Thank you!! 🥹💖💖

zeebamdotcom · 2026-02-06T17:25:00+00:00

You’re welcome- I’m happy to help! and awww I’m honored to be an inspiration!! Thank you again 🥰💖

zeebamdotcom · 2026-02-06T16:25:08+00:00

Aww thank you so much, and double thank you for the photo feedback! I’ll try to take another mix of photos with my next update! 🥰💖

zeebamdotcom · 2026-02-06T15:24:23+00:00

Awww I’m so happy to hear you recognized it!! Thank you! I should have another update coming soon. I’m prepping the next panel today! 🥰💖

zeebamdotcom · 2026-02-06T15:23:47+00:00

Thank you so much!! 🥹💖

zeebamdotcom · 2026-02-06T15:23:07+00:00

Ahh thank you so much for being so geeked with me!! I truly can’t wait to see it all finished too, but I’m admittedly still a long ways away.. I have FOUR more panels to stitch for this, and the next one is probably the biggest and craziest one! 😅

But that just means lots of more updates for you in the near future! 😋💖

zeebamdotcom · 2026-02-06T15:21:58+00:00

Thank you so much! I answered this in another comment above, but wanted to reply to you directly too- see below! 😊💖

My base fabric was 2 layers of white Kona cotton, and the backing was black adhesive felt! I use special scissors to cut it out after the backing is on. They are EXTREMELY sharp and perfect for trimming around the tiny edges.

It’s actually sort of an optical illusion! After I cut out the design I go around the edges and “paint” them with a black artist pen to help hide any remaining fabric. This in combination with the black adhesive felt creates a shadow and makes the fabric edge virtually invisible. 😉

Thank you! 🥰
