A little sneak peak at this new Doxie pattern coming June 1st! I felt the peachy roses were to light, so added some mauve and gold roses instead 🐶 #doglover #embroidery

Does anybody else remember the days of club penguin, and when garage had candy at the checkout, and Aeropostale and Wii games? #thursdaynolstalgia #tbt

Two fugitives teaming up! 🦹‍♂️🦹‍♀️ Aureolin Yellow PY40 + Rose Madder Genuine NR9 = soft oranges in a tight value range. Did you know Rose Madder by W&N has a divine scent? It’s from the madder root or perhaps added bergamot oil (sources disagree). 🕵️‍♀️🔎 #ArtYear 🌱✨ #EastCoastKin #art #watercolor #BskyArt

Watercolor chart with 20 colors, all mixed from Aureolin and Rose Madder Genuine. A very tight value range of oranges, from red orange to light apricot and orange-yellow.

Do you ever procrastinate working on the number one priority, but instead, work on other things that need to be done eventually so really you're putting it off, but still doing your future self a solid #selfemployed

Keep making and sharing your art. It is vital, especially now. My energy levels have been extraordinarily low and it has been near impossible to paint, but scrolling and seeing your art has been such a gift. Thank you, beautiful artists!

I think this Colourful Cactus might be my fave new pattern from the Desert Dreams collection 🌵✨ It was very satisfying to pull some vibrant shades & do a bit of layering work with the bigger flowers! You can find this colourful now in shop! ☀️ #embroidery #artistsonbluesky

I know we are going through a wave of non-filtered/edited content right now & I think it’s so refreshing for authenticity sake, but just a reminder that editing can bring SO much back to a grim photo. The contrast, the correct colour matching and even the exposure can do wonders #contentcreation

I’ve been in the habit of posting cameraroll “crumbs” for the past few years every month or so as a way of documenting & reflecting on things that have happened & more recent memories & although it seems obvious, it truly helps draw up gratitude for the day to day + small joys #romanticizeyourlife

Aw I’m so grateful to hear that! It has been super disheartening with AI patterns popping up recently, thank you for supporting a real life artist & handmade pattern 🫶🏻🫶🏻

That is such a happy thing to hear! I hope you love embroidery just as much & enjoy whichever pattern you choose 🤗✨

I think any creator just wants to be appreciated. They want someone to lean in and notice the thought process or the tiny details, they want the hours they spend working on a painting, recipe, poetry, song, etc to be pondered and given light. When that appreciation appears, it’s such gift…

Sharing this as a reminder that learning and growing skills takes time! The first (2021) and the last (2025) are 4 years of struggling, patience, discouragement, imposter syndrome and growth 🍓 #artists #artshare #embroidery

If you’re having a hard time lately, try looking back at old photos/memories! They might give you some comfort or gratitude for the good things or just a reminder that life has ebs and flows 🫶🏻

Did you know that something like 6% or less of the population are working artists? If you're making ANY sort of living as a creative, be so proud of that 👏🏻👏🏻 #artists #blueskyartists
