LET THE CROSS STITCH HIT THE FLOOR
#my art#fiber arts#cross stitch#god I wish I had picked a simpler border this took foreverrrrr#I did take a break for like 2 or 3 months and didn’t work on it as often#but like I literally knit a sweater faster than I stitched this#also credit where credit is due raven came up with my catchy title#I wish I had swapped the light and dark greens also but it’s too late#I learned some bitching new techniques for this and also got a like. round clampy frame rather than a hoop#the big font and the border came from dmc I believe and I think I googled for the words#anyway. I have a really cool pattern that I wanna do but also I think another cross stitch might kill me#or maybe I’d have more fun with it bc it’s a pretty picture

woaa I think I never shared this. cross stitch I did of the dame of hearts from samuel’s playing cards. I really loved the art and I wanted it bigger for display purposes so I took matters into my own hands…
#pentiment#when my grandma died I got her whole catalogue of cross stitching thread so every now and then I take up a project with it#there are some minor changes i’d make if I did it again but I WONT because it took FOREVER

so lol for anyone wondering where I disappeared to for all of December. guess who decided to do crafts as gifts.
only one of the irl friends is still on tumblr anymore, so there is in fact. a fourth cross stitch. on top of the hand bound gift book pile where she can't see it. I am so tired.
#usually the irl friend group meets and exchanges gifts on the new year#this year there was a Conflict and instead we're meeting. this Sunday.#an entire week and a half of deadline time lost#and that's the story of how I died#katie don't look#personal#cross stitch#the books took up most of november lol. lmao.

After 2 1/2 months, I'm finally done! I'm sorry, Mr. Redacted, but merch is expensive, and thread is cheap. I also like being able to control how subtle a reference I'm making, and some of your merch doesn't fit that vibe. This is about 3 in x 4.5 in across, centered over the left breast of a jacket I've decorated previously.
[Photo ID: cross stitch image of a constellation, the letter "Epsilon" underneath one of the stars, and a large needle & thread symbol /end ID]
(pleaee ignore the fluff. I don't have a lint roller)
I don't blame you if you don't immediately get the reference; constellations can be hard to identify. This one in particular is Carina, and the focus is on a particular star that makes up the constellation, Epsilon Carinae (that's the one above the fancy E)
[Photo ID: image of the constellation Carina matching the first image, with the names of the stars labeled /end ID]
The common name for that particular star, however, ought to be familiar (and not exactly surprising).
It's named Avior.
#i was thinking my thoughts and came up with this#redacted asmr#redacted avior#you would not believe how much blood and tears this took#or maybe you would. cross stitch and embroidery is a vicious hobby#it'll be a minute before I'm willing to take on another project like this#but i might not be opposed to showing the process of how i make my own patterns at some point#im sorry I messed up the spacing for Canopus too#but if I kept the actual resolution and dimensions#that star would literally be in my armpit. I'm calling it “creative license”

Soooooooooo happy first finish of the year/first finish for this blog, everyone. I read i love you, i made you tea and Can you see me? (Or should I keep waiting?) by @oh-snapperss and I've been rotating them in my brain at high speed. Something about their ethubs characterization really just rings true for me I think. It was, frankly, I big inspiration for Ethubs in Rift AU and that was in no small part helped by the fact that Laurie and I did start talking and both utterly ruined each other with those two.
So - I wanted to make something to commemorate that. The phhrase 'I love you, I made you tea' just makes me so warm inside, and this galax-tea that I found by SunnyCrossStitches on Etsy was just...too perfect for the combination of those two fics. SO! Here it is in all it's glory!! I really like how it turned out and now I have a minecraft cross stitching font I can use for all sorts of things as a bonus. And no one IRL is gonna know this is about gay block men unless I tell them, which tickles me to no end.
I don't know if I want to make a separate taglist for stitching versus writing but for now, taglist below VVVV if you don't want to be tagged for stitching/would prefer I make a separate taglist for writing and stitching, let me know
@atherix @braxiatel @greatbridge @ellalily @lesbianwilby @em-mermaid @loombarrow @sparksnevadas @aceofthefandoms
#Stitch's Stitches#Hermitshipping#??????? TECHNICALLY??????

This little guy is a test for my "basic" amigurumi creature/animal body shape, so far adapted to a teddy bear shape (with different ears), and a baby dragon (with a back frill and wings in progress!)
I'll try to write a beginner-friendly pattern so there can be more of them 💓💓💓
#crochet#amigurumi#my partner took some photos for me back when I thought I'd be able to sell them#turns out we're both sentimental fucks and he got attached to half of them#and I to the other half#it's.... a problem#I've kinda been thinking about an etsy page for patterns#both crochet and cross stitch#but.... yeah that's far off still#I've just recently started making up my own patterns; there's not many yet

The moral dilemma of "I want to make things as accessible and affordable for everyone as possible" and "we live in a capitalist hellscape where my disabled ass needs to be able to afford to live, and I put a ton of time and effort into my art so I deserve to be fairly compensated for it"
#I'm trying to make my cross stitch album covers into like. actual legible patterns to sell on my art store#and I was thinking of putting them up there for like. $5 because it's just a digital file. but that comes out to like 40 cents an hour#for the time jt took to design it initially and then make it into a legit pattern. which feels like I'm selling myself short#but also. I want as many ppl to b able to enjoy making their own as possible. eugh#armchair speaks#same goes for my brush packs I was thinking of posting it for like $10 but it took Hours and Hours to make each one#sobbing screaming rolling on the floor distraught etc
