These look so good! I love how you added the colors from your logo with the watercolor and border stitching!

Hoop 3 in the series. These have been challenging to make (both emotionally and skill-wise because I’m not used to stitching on cardstock), but they’ve also helped me process feelings of worry and sadness. #embroidery #mixedmeida #embroideryart #embroideryartist #fiberartist #handmade

A piece I made for one of @ajpritchett.bsky.social β€˜s Stitchtober challenges. (I was overambitious with the details and ended up finishing it much later than October πŸ˜….) I love the dark fantasy look of this one. πŸ—‘οΈπŸ›‘οΈ #embroidery #embroideryart #embroideryartist #handmade #slowart #fiberart

Using this fun thrifted fabric to gain more sewing machine practice. I started with a bandana and realized I had enough leftover to try my hand at a small tote bag (with a little embroidery). They’re not perfect, but I had a ton of fun working on them!

One of the nice things about being on a new platform is I can share some past projects if I don’t have any new ones πŸ˜…. This was a Buffy hoop I made as part of a secret art exchange last year (hosted by lovetoembroider on IG)!

A new hoop that’s a bit different from my usual horror movie/gothic fiction/Halloween-inspired style. Sometimes the real world is scary enough.
I have an older card deck that’s missing a few cards, so I figured I’d repurpose it for art projects.

A mixed media hoop inspired by the movie Nope, featuring OJ Haywood, Lucky, and Jean Jacket. πŸŒ₯️ πŸ›Έ I used a combo of painting and hand embroidery on fabric from an old set of sheets with a cowboy-themed print. #embroidery #nope #embroideryart #handmade #fiberart #embroidered

This was an embroidery project I made as part of a mythical creatures-themed art collab a few years ago. It was inspired by selkie folklore, and I thought it would be fun to take some photos of it at the beach!

Embroidering over the past several has led to me wanting to expand my sewing skills in general. I’d like to gain more experience making and mending/altering clothes. Here is a pair of jeans I hemmed recently. I added a red trim and decorated the pockets as well! #sewing #embroidery #mending

I remember watching it around that time! I was maybe only 12 or 13 then, but I still think about it to this day!
