Throw back to that time I made a scalemaile top. I tried so many ways to crochet scales to speed up the process but in the end just making it with the chain rings turned out to be the quickest way.

You can stitch the most frightening things you can think of in these skull embroidery hoops! Like math tests, and someone using your fabric scissors on paper!

The Bambu A1 Mini was the first 3d printer I bought. It's a great little guy. It's also why most my hoop designs are the size they are. =D We can print bigger now, but I still love the small hoops.

Throw back to that time I was obsessed with making soap. This one was done with chlorophyll. I have since learned that most cold processes methods turn chlorophyll brown. It did eventually turn brown after a few months, but it was pretty while it lasted. =D

The natural conclusion of the frying pan hoop is of course, full frying pan embroidery kit. I thought of the bacon text at 2am one night. It was like waking up and the idea fairy had left me a full design! =D
