  5. #ScribesAndMakers Day 18: Post an image (with alt text) of needlework you made or admire

    An old cross stitch I did years ago called "I :underheart: Chocolate in any language" and had pictures of bears from China, France, Russia, the Netherlands and Greece, with "chocolate" in their languages"

  7. All of my patterns (45+!) have been updated, so all stitches and symbols should be Pattern Keeper compatible!
    I've given everything a little refresh and love in the process, because cross stitch is fun, and I want others to enjoy it with my patterns as well!

    Check them out over at katuend.etsy.com

    If you have any problems with a pattern please let me know. The floss may not import, but all symbols shouldn't have a problem now! It's been a little labour of love for the past few weeks. I don't like making these self promo-y posts, but how else will people find me lol

  12. RE: ec.social-network.europa.eu/@E

    TIL #vyshyvanka is the traditional #embriodery of #Ukraine. i have been a bit obsessed with it. in #nyc you could find a lot of clothes with their distinct #redwork, but their needlework is in other colors, especially #blackwork.

    btw: Palestinian’s #needlework is also incredible. #Tatreez is some of the most beautiful wearable art from the Middle East.

    it guts me gringos want to destroy these two cultures; which have some of the oldest and most beautiful artisanal traditions.

  14. Playing around with G'MIC. It has some interesting image processing effects that can make e.g. Hitomezashi stitching patterns

    I cover: fabric (Aida, cotton, linen & even denim!), thread brands I actually trust (DMC, Madeira, Anchor), how to pick the right hoop, needles explained simply, and why your scissors really matter.

    Whether you're building your first kit or just curious — this one's for you.

  17. 🧵 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!
