Now when I try to think about it, I approach it with the mindset of how the heck I'm gonna use scissors to cut weird corners and then use animation techniques to build a smoother silhouette.

I love how you drew them with fart noises. It's so accurate.

Before I learned to do merrowly edges on watersoluble stabilizer, I was just making appliques and then taking a lighter to the edges. I have been trying to learn on my own, but there's so much to think about. I was trying to make outlines on intricate designs, but now I know why everything'sa circle

A #process pic of #rougethebat on my #embroiderymachine in 2023. This was on a shirt.

I turned a drawing of a #cat and a #moth in my sketchbook into an #applique in 2023. It was mostly practice to see what parts could be felt and what parts I should embroider.

The latter! I spent SO long changing all the directions just to see if it would make it stay inside the lines. This was before I learned about pull compensation! I eventually opted for a single direction and adjusted it from there.

Version 1 vs Version 2 (2023)
Used more saturated colors in #felt. Changed the satin stitch to be more bold + different line weight.

I believe this was to fundraise money for my cat's recently (then in 2023) diagnosed #diabetes. It was very expensive and I didn't have enough money for the vetsulin and the syringes after all the vet bills. I was able to meet the goal. She has since passed. She was spoiled! #cat #patches #imissher

I remember adding heatbond to the patches on the carpet using a cardboard box bc I didn't have any more space on my desk in 2021. This is the most patches I've made in one go. Each hoop held 2 patches. Ran 54 minutes per hoop. My single needle hobby machine was working round the clock! #patches

2023 I upgraded my digitizer software to level 3 and unlocked #merrowlypatches. I thought I would test myself and recreate the scene from #bocchi.

I think this is version 2 of my mascot. I had reworked it up to 4 different times. The hooped ones are #appliques with minky. I was struggling, but determined. This is from 2020.

2021 titty #shark #machineembroidery #patches. Had lots of pull compensation issues (misaligned) and was using the wrong stabilizer. Tried many different colorways.

This is THE first thing I tried to digitize into a #patch when I first got my #embroiderymachine! I remember being so overwhelmed that I cried bc I broke 10 needles in a row! Turns out it was density issues from trying to cram a large design in a small area on DENIM not twill. Left:2020, Right:2021

#Garfield (or more like Girlfield) #plush. I recycled some of my old clothes for her. I used jumprings for her septum, and made a baby chain with a clasp.
She's already in her new home.
