In these days of looming AI we should focus on what makes humans special. We create things.

Nearly done with my Kingfish/Fishwife piece. Made with mostly recycled/found materials.

Besides #truecrime, I love a good #thriller. Just started one today, and already binged watched it all! Worth every second.

Love interacting with found fabric. This #swirly one was found in a thrift shop in Florida.

I started with an ode to #vangogh and #drgachet then I lost complete control. :)

I love starting with a small bit of #fabric and seeing what happens. So fun to let the #thread take me where it wants to go.

#frigate #birds are kind of cool even if they look like the symbol for a James Bond villain organization when embroidered.

Having some fun while I wrap up some other projects.
What do you see here?

Photo of a small purple felt heart work in progress with a smaller teal felt heart stitched on it. The teal heart has many multicoloured French knot stitches. There is a threaded needle with yellow embroidery cotton just poked in the purple heart with one failed yellow stitch.
After some weird news, I retracted inside my shell trying not to dragon up & raze the world.
I thought a good way to prevent this would be to pick up embroidery again🤔🧐
I haven't touched a needle in years so very amateurish, but hey, no dragon🤭
I'll take the win🪡
🤟🏼💜🤟🏼

Some of my latest #stitchtherapy is test stitching my Camels Hump pattern, to be gifted to my work wife.

A image of cross stitch in progress from the Mrs Claus Cookbook a SewAlong project from Living On The Rainbow on Etsy. It shows a recipe for Sugar Plum in purples and dark brown lettering.
I've nearly finished the most recent page of @livingontherainbow.bsky.social Mrs Claus Cookbook- just in time for the next one tomorrow! I love working on a #SAL! Hoping to get a feed set up as I have left FB well and truly in the past #CrossStitch #StitchTherapy #Craft #CraftTherapy #CraftSky
Trying to decide if she is done. Thoughts?
