    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.

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

  7. 🧵 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!

  14. Here's a shot of a vintage navy blue Kettle Creek Canvas shirtdress that I'm refreshing for #WipWednesday . Anybody remember them? It needed colour so all additions, including buttons are bright and multicoloured. I've changed the buttons, removed patch pockets, added belt loops, inset side pockets and a back kickpleat, lined the belt, and pinned on whimsical embellishments. Just started the multicoloured embroidery on the collar, more embroidery to come.

    (Edit for clarity)

  15. Kihada.

    This yellow comes from wood chips — not a synthetic dye.

    Same slow process, small batches, and a lot of testing to get it to this tone.

    I love how it sits on Lugana — warm without going neon, soft without going flat.

  16. @swachter Ah, thank you. With that name to go on, I can see about doing something similar myself.

  21. As I have begun on my next cross stitch project, and the sheer scale has made me realise it may take a few months at least, I will instead look to my last completed one, a small neat thrush bird! A small finish is nice between the larger ones. Pattern by Jane Greenoff "Wild Birds"

  22. What do you folks use to ink embroidery designs on to fabric? Does it have to be a special kind of fabric?

    Sure, I could ask Google, but I like people more than faulty AI.

    I saw someone mention drawing their own embroidery designs and thought, 'hey, I can do that!'

  24. Progress on a trimmed version of Battle, artwork by Daniel Eskridge. I’m stitching the sky section first, with lots of sunset/sunrise colors. It’ll be a while before I get to the ship, but I’m really pleased with these early colors. 🧵✨

  25. Latest progress on Dark Queen of the Earth by Autumn Lane Stitchery. Just started Part 5, which sits between the teal/green dress section and the rosy petal dress section. The forest colors make this a very satisfying SAL to stitch. 🧵✨

  26. I was a little quiet over the holidays, but I’ve been stitching along. Here’s my most recent progress on The Grand Library by Heaven and Earth Designs — slow, steady, and very satisfying.

    I also have a big restock coming soon, plus two new colors on the way. More details shortly. 🧵✨

  27. Progress share 🧵✨

    I just finished a very detailed section of the Extraordinary Birds SAL by Lola Crow Cross Stitch — the peacock, complete with lots of intricate backstitching. I.

    I stitched this on my Beach Vibes fabric (available in my shop if you’re curious): etsy.me/49bJ977 It’s been such a fun base for this piece. Onward to the next section!

  28. Does anyone know of good digital collections for historical research re: textiles in early America (say, 1700s to early 1800s)?

    I have a student doing a project based on needlework from this period. She has found a few print volumes with good images of needlework from the time, but I am wondering if there is a digital archive or collection out there that might be of use.
