Finished Project!

I saw this message on Tumblr a while back and decided to do it with my own tweaks! Surprisingly personal I enjoyed making it in my own way.

Cross stitch is in “Parrot” thread which is yellow, red and blue. Straight stitches are a lovely orange/cream thread.

On the right is the neurotransmitter dopamine, the one on the left is seratonin (which when lacking cause depression).

The top chemical is the active ingredient in the anti-depressant citalopram (which is the best AD for me).

I wrapped the Aida around a black piece of card which I cut to shape, then sewed it into place. I might reback it one day, but I like it for now!

So I decided to start a small (heh small is a bit of an understatement here) project when I quit my job back in September for @nightblink. It was meant to be sort of a Christmas/ birthday present. I wasn’t planning on it taking up until a few weeks ago to finish it but there you are. 

The image is 10x 6 on 18 ct Aida cloth and used 51 different colors of embroidery floss and about 3 skeins of black alone. The first image was the inspiration. I’m so excited that I can finally post progress and final shots of it! 

The program I used to create the pattern was free and called PCstitch. 

Happy Easter Nightblink! 

I’ve started a new project based on Sera’s tarot now and hopefully when that’s done I’ll be able to post pictures of that so keep an eye out!

This is bloody brilliant!!! I bow to you @featheredblue!

Maker’s balls! As an embroidery addict this blew my pants away! Woooow!

One project I’m working on- a tree based off of Yggdrasil with my own twist, I plan on filling it in with different browns and some black around the burls and bends.

I really love the grain/bark stitches here. Looks like just a back stitch, but very well done, making it look really realistic.
I’d love to see the completed piece?
