  1. Giving away for free the business idea. For the better of humanity.
    Behold - baseball cap with the two front panels made fully from vercro loop fabric. Not some small square patch, but whole front. Or even full cap. Might be also valid idea.
    To put colorful, meaningful, or silly, or depending on your mood, embroidered Velcro patches whenever you want.
    I have checked, no such caps are being sold on the internet anywhere.
    Just send me such a cap when you are running a big velcro cap and velcro patch business 😏

  7. Bayeux Mania!

    Books are just one of the many ways to interpret and record history. The 11th-century Bayeux tapestry, is going on display to the public today in the UK. The tapestry has more than 220 feet of embroidery detailing the events leading up to the Norman conquest of England in 1066. And the public is loving it.

    British Museum Opens Bayeux Tapestry Exhibition

    Inside the exhibition on Thursday morning, the first visitors made their way along the tapestry, snapping photos as they went. They were all quiet until one — Cheryl Prax, 71, a retired property manager — spotted some of the nude figures in the tapestry’s borders and laughed loudly. “I love quirky historical things like that,” Prax said afterward.

    (And what would this type of storytelling look like with more modern topics? Artist Edith Pritchett drew a modern-day version depicting “today’s battles with online trolls, social media addiction, the manosphere, AI agents” and more: The trollers v the scrollers: Edith Pritchett’s Bayeux tapestry for the modern age)

    Want to see the tapestry in person but can’t get tickets to see the original? You still have options!

    Where to See the World’s Bayeux Tapestry Replicas

    Here are links to just some of the animalspeople, and other items depicted (the astronomical object included, and some less safe for work items) in the tapestry. And if you can’t make it in person, check out this high-res digital version from the Bayeux MuseumExplore the Bayeux Tapestry online.

    Fair warning, though, many of the main websites linked to the tapestry are slooooow today. Because history is cool, and Bayeux Mania is real!

  10. Using #Inkscape to plan #embroidery because why not.
    Also using shape builder templates off label, as pre-defined grids. You can add an axonometric grid doing the same (File>Document properties>Grids>Axonometric grid), but with more motions.
    If you are here for embroidery part, the plan is to backstitch, with each branch consisting of two stitches. I'll have to draw this on my fabric as I'm famously not good at keeping stitches length even. I consider it charming for contours of rounded stuff, and useful in the corners, but not so much for such geometric designs.

  11. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🧵🪡 The nearly 70 m (230 ft) #BayeuxTapestry is an embroidered #linen cloth ending abruptly with the death of King Harold at the Battle of #Hastings, leaving scholars to wonder if a final coronation panel was lost.

    Ahead of its #London debut, organizers launched a #competition asking #children to stitch their own hopeful ending. Winning classes earn a trip to see the #artifact and visit the #battlefield.

    #PastAndFuture Craft Exchange

    Apr 18, 2026, 1:00 PM – 3:30 PM

    506 Main St #18, Westbrook, ME 04092, USA

    Cost: $35

    About the event

    "Did you get an embroidery kit as a gift? No idea how to start the thing, but you’d like to? Did you buy a cute embroidery kit and are a little trepidatious about starting it? Maybe your aunt taught you a little about embroidery when you were 10, but now you are 40 and the stitches didn’t just come back to you? Or maybe you have seen a cute embroidery kit at Past and Future Crafts that you would LOVE to buy, but you have no idea how to get started?

    And then you see that all the 'Learn embroidery classes' require you to buy their kit and materials?

    Never fear! Tree Heckler is here to help! Dig that thing out of the closet, the junk drawer, or wherever you stashed it. Bring it to this class!

    This class is for learning freestyle, crewel work, or cross stitch embroidery ONLY.…"
