  2. Any #embroidery experts in the room? This is my first attempt embroidering a patch (of the sort people put on bags) on a Brother machine..

    The thread seemed to bunch up a little at the top of the left arm but recovered. When the machine started on the right arm it struggled a little, then the thread snapped. I found this mess underneath when I untangled the thread from the machine.

    Stitch rate was 350spm.

    What did I do wrong? Any advice?

    Und nun sind auch Jahr, Ort und meine Initialen mit auf dem Bild.

    Das finden von jemandem der das Ganze rahmen kann wird jetzt die nächste Herausforderung. Hat irgendwer mit dem Rahmen einer Stickarbeit schon Erfahrungen gemacht?

  8. @ConnyChiwa That is so amazing, not just the handcrafting of the stitchwork, but also the interpretation of the photo in fabric form. Very nicely done!

  13. I did not know that #JoAnns was a corporate sponsor of Loose Ends, the world wide organization that helps get creative projects finished for families after a loved one passes away. They've apparently struggled a bit since JoAnns closed, but donations of time or money are always appreciated!

  17. Not just 'Grandma Hobbies' - #DIY and #woodworking ( #GrandpaHobbies ?) are making a comeback as well!

    The Comforting Resurgence of ‘ #GrandmaHobbies

    In search of calm and community, new generations are learning centuries-old skills.

    By Kate Brennan, July 18, 2026

    Excerpt: " 'Younger generations’ appetite for hands-on activities — what the internet has dubbed 'grandma hobbies' — has reached far beyond Michigan. In North Carolina, John C. Campbell Folk School, the oldest folk school in the country, has a long waiting list for its teen program; just a few years ago, it was struggling to fill all the spots. Ely Folk School in Minnesota has also reported a post-pandemic influx of younger volunteers.

    " 'Grandma hobbies reconnect us to ourselves,' said Cal Newport, a professor of computer science at Georgetown University who writes about technology, focus and productivity. 'These activities are hard, in that they require time and concentration to master. But they also offer clear and fulfilling rewards.'

    "Mari Sanborn, the communications coordinator for the Folk School Alliance, a nonprofit that supports #FolkEducation across the United States and Canada, said learning #handicrafts offers a way to reclaim a sense of community as well as #TraditionalSkills.

    " 'It’s a way of holding onto things that might one day be lost,' she said."

  26. 🧵 People often ask me, how they could test, if they like #stitching without having learnt #embroidery. I recommend #intuitiveStitching, it's like #doodles with a needle and you see quick success. If you like it, you then can start to learn simple stitches. Just be wild and play like a child!

  27. 🧵 A new project for our #museum animations (a table with volunteers working on different embroidery ideas. Everybody is invited to ask curious questions or to learn how to stitch.)

    #Embroidery on gauze and/or paper for an #artBook. Working title: Blessures - injuries - Verletzungen. I'll add the coming photos as a thread.

  28. Wow. This university student is doing memes in needlework, and I believe they are a wizard. You must see #GrumpyCat in blackwork #embroidery

    And Harambe in #needlelace. Among others.

    Just go.

  29. #ArtAdventCalendar In my childhood, I dreamed of having a cute, small and real dragon in our garden. I imagined dragons to be green (and did I say cute?). For my first bigger embroidery I tried to paint with the needle. Even adults could use dragon power!

  30. Ik ben nog met een ander borduurwerk bezig, maar deze lonkt ook.. Gescoord op Marktplaats, uit de jaren '90 en nog niet opengemaakt. En: beagles. Welke bordurende beagle eigenaar kan daar nou weerstand aan bieden?

  38. 🧵 And more photos of my Sunday #museum work on the #ScrollBook. People's reactions were interesting: from almost undisguised laughing by people unfamiliar with art to great conversations with interested people and enthusiastic children.

  39. I've just learned that Havering Museum, Romford is holding an exhibition of the phenomenal art and craft of my late aunt Wendy Pidgeon until 25 April. Doesn't seem to be listed on the Havering Museum website - details came from Romford Embroiderers, which Wendy helped establish.

  40. 🧵 1/3 I like embroidering on paper in art journals. Because it's a challenge to design the reverse side. On the front, I decide how the embroidery will look to match the surroundings. On the reverse side, the embroidery will inspire me to further design.
