Artist Tomoko Kubo is embroidering all 46 hiragana characters with each piece including images that show foods, animals and activities that begin with the character. Just beautiful!

@bammerlaan@pixey.org @sewing Further process pictures of the thrilling development of this #sashiko patch pocket. Doing this on the train to and from a Groningen concert turned out to be a good activity.
The back of #hitomezashi sashiko is supposed to look as neat as the front, with the excess thread tucked between two layers of fabric. I don't have two layers of fabric, but you'll only see the front, anyway. So 
Get yourself a man that a) shows real interest in all your little hobbies and crafts, b) picks up on your throwaway comment about how you wanted to try tambour/goldwork but gave up when materials proved very hard to source in your country and c) GOES AND ORDERS A HAND & LOCK KIT FOR YOU and gives it for your anniversary 
this is the Bernadette Banner/Hand&Lock collab, ans yea that's the same Hand&Lock that's been arpund since the friggin 1700's. I can't fuckin WAIT to dive into it all.

@bammerlaan@pixey.org @sewing A little progress pic of the #sashiko pattern. Going for a hitomezashi pattern, a specific type of sashiko. See for an explanation: https://www.athreadedneedle.com/blogs/blogs/what-is-hitomezashi-and-how-to-do-it
Here’s my finished March green & orange mini quilt!

I guess the closed contours of an SVG font is normal. I thought again about the process of Relief Single Line font where they make a simple search/replace to reopen the contours. → <https://github.com/isdat-type/Relief-SingleLine>
I added this search/replace in the script. Now we can have proper stroke fonts for #Hershey text in @inkscape for #plotter or #embroidery. :)
I will stop spamming here and get back to "real work".
Purple witch bag made from reclaimed fabric.
I cut fabric from a thrifted skirt, appplied iron-on interfacing and lined it with black cotton. Then added a tiny pouch for charms and embroidered a pentagram with yellow neon thread on it.

Il reste à dissoudre le non tissé et à installer la broderie dans son tambour définitif (Violette bouquet, And Other Adventures).
Here it is, with the rough idea of a plan to move forward with after ripping out the surface weaving on the bottom quadrant of the X.
I just started the first of 6 lengths of gold work down in the lower right corner (it goes up diagonally to the top left). Placing that first row against the French knots is delicate and tedious, a task most suited to the morning for me. I tend to lose momentum late in the day, particularly when I wake up at 4am like today. 
#WIPWednesday • About 2 hours of work of this black on black texture. I’m very pleased with it, but it will take many more hours to do this section. #embroidery 
I had to make more of those sweet hexie flowers (that I posted the other day), for my Bits & Bobs collage quilt. 
A birthday present I got. I wanted a stencil for #sashiko. (I'm bad at drawing grids, especially on fabric.) This was what I got—the local sewing shop apparently recommended it.
You use a hot needle to poke holes into the plastic, then I pinned it to my fabric and used a heat-erase pen to draw dots. I started out going row by row but then thought of a different strategy, as I'm connecting the dots with a ruler, anyway.
Promising results, so far! Though the hot needle poking part was a bit tedious.

And the prints have arrived of Silver Surprise. As always I'm thrilled with the quality of them 
I will be showing them for the first time at the @peakdistrictartisans #SpringArtFair 12/13 April, and they will be listed on my website soon. I will also have the original with me, I pick up the frame later - watch this space!

En detaljbild på leksandslivet där maljorna och laskningen syns bättre. Maljorna är i tenn och laskningen (flätsömmen) i silke. Själva livet är sytt någon gång under 1900-talet och ganska slitet.

Per @alxd request, I'm posting a #solarpunk patch of his design, with small addition of my own creativity – #embroidery of daffodils and vines
As a knitter I did consider trying my hand at micro knitting to make this kitten, but I don’t love working on double ended needles even in normal size. I think the chainstitch gives a really nice knitted texture, though. #embroidery #wip
I shouldn’t have to keep making these, but I will continue to make these until all fascists are out of office and off the planet. These are all available on babegangpatches.com

Happy to finally reveal one of the official product picture for my upcoming magnets! 
Before releasing them, I will create listings with 0 stock, that way if you want one (or several) you can activate the notification, this will give me an idea of how many to make for the release! 
Hoping to have them ready by the end of April at the latest~
I'm busily prepping for my next show which is @peakdistrictartisans #SpringArtFair 12/13 April in Buxton. I will have new work and prints avaialble which will include a number of small #AffordableArt pieces. This is part of last years collaboration project with dark room printer Natasha Braithwaite. An experimental study of stitch on her #cyanotype - I've finally framed it!
