My latest project has grown weary of me asking what it wants to be. "I am what I am. Why isn't that enough for you?" Alrighty then. It will be what it is: a scattered rainbow. I call it that because I select my thread color and order by singing the Rainbow Song: "red and yellow and pink and green..." 😊🌈 #Embroidery

I’ve been desperately trying to assemble all the items I have already cut the felt for ages ago. Once that’s done, I will need to remake some keychains. THEN, I will finally be able to start working on my little magnets!
I swear I am so excited to drop them but my part time job takes up most of my mornings and it’s slowing me down so much :blobugh:

Two little felt beetles on a branch, surrounded with leaves. One beetle is pink and blue, the other one is blue and orange. It’s their first date. Their horns are almost touching, you can feel the electricity in the air.

A while back, @gwenbeads posted about the book “A Stitch in Line: Mathematics and One-Stitch Sashiko” by Katherine Seaton, and it was so relevant to my interests I had to get hold of it. I’ve been working through it ever since, stitching the samplers and playing with the maths.

I’m currently paused at the end of chapter 8 as I wait for new thread (Retors d’Alsace!!!) to arrive for the next sampler. Here’s a photo of all my samplers so far, done on my hand-dyed muslin scraps; my plan is to patchwork them all together into a hanging once I’ve finished.

Gwen’s review of the book is in a paywalled journal, but she’s put a link to free copies (of the review, not the book) here: mathstodon.xyz/@gwenbeads/1140

Seventeen small-to-medium square and rectangular pieces of cotton fabric dyed in shades of pink, purple, and blue, laid out on a cutting mat. Hitomezashi designs have been stitched on them in coordinating colours: crosses, squares, and fractal-looking designs, some regular and some random.

Zum Thema #GuteDinge ist am Wochenende ganz ganz knapp (aber pünktlich) die Geburtstagskrone fertig geworden.

Dieses Mal habe ich in Wasser auflösbares Stickvlies genommen und bin mega begeistert. Nur der Vorzeichenstift der dritten Iteration der Blaumeise hat durchgefärbt :/

Von Tempo und Technik komme ich endlich dahin, wo ich hin will.

(Und den Namen in der Mitte zeige ich natürlich wieder nicht, obwohl ich so stolz auf die techn. Umsetzung bin)

One side is finished! Getting so close I can taste it! I did the fat side first so I'd get the skinnier side will feel lightning fast by comparison.

I was very worried I'd not have enough of the bugle beads to finish (a problem with Joanne's closing!) but I should have enough to finish.

I'll probably need to frog one section on a curve where the beads are popping. You push one down and another one pops up. It is very temping to snug them up but they need more room than you think! Tiny adjustments to boot, a millimeter here or there, just enough for a bit of movement.

My Black Sea, mined, polluted, tortured. Home to over two thousand species, despite having no oxygen on the bottom of it. The excitement of seeing dolphins play near the shore, diving for rapa shells, now memories of the past.

In their colonial conquest, russians burn, kill and demolish everything. Then repopulate the ashes with their own that are willing to bark for a bag of buckwheat.

Embroidery of nine fishes, that are arranged in three rows of three. The color scheme is very 80ies windbreaker, teal, deep cobalt blue, orange, yellow and magenta. The fish is in pixel-like squares, which are large and each square is 8 vertical parallel stitches.
