Trying to scrounge some festive joy, with help from this jolly little squirrel designed by @pigeoncoopdesigns. (Had to replace the lovely natural color palette recommended in the pattern with jewel tones to match my purposefully tacky holiday decorations.) #embroidery #stitchsky #crossstitch

A frankly adorable cross-stitch piece depicting a festive patterned brown squirrel holding a pink berry, surrounded by pink and green snowflake-like flourishes

Thank you! The pattern suggested black, but I had navy blue on hand, and I really love the result.

Another BZ Creations finish! This one was a must-stitch for me, since it references a beloved character and is also the shortest way to summarize my gender experience 💜🤍💚 #embroidery #needlework #stitchsky #lotr

A small embroidery piece depicting branches with red berries, a helmet like the one worn by Eowyn from Lord of the Rings, and the words “I am no man”

These days, it’s hard AF to keep believing and keep pretending, but we’re still out here trying -- the lovers, the dreamers, and me. Pattern: BZ Creations. #embroidery #needlework #stitchsky #muppets

A painted and embroidered fiber art piece featuring a rainbow, a banjo, cattail plants, and a ribbon bearing text that reads “Why are there so many songs about rainbows?”

It’s Pride weekend in my city, and eternal “just let trans people live FFS” day for me & mine. Here’s one more pattern from Dee’s Twenty Stitches. #embroidery #crossstitch #stitchsky

Close-up of a cross-stitch pennant on navy blue aida, featuring the words “gender-affirming care saves lives” along with two rampant lions, a crown, and flourishes.

I was itching for some more blackwork, and this design by The Urban Stitches offered the perfect chance to use this variegated Cosmo floss. #crossstitch #blackwork #embroidery #stitchsky

Close-up on blackwork embroidery stitched on white aida fabric. Multicolored variegated floss creates a square backdrop of a dense blackwork design. Within the square are the words “how empty is life without color.” The words are outlined in black in a gothic font.

Many months after the auction closed, here’s the final set of my garter commissions from the OFMD Craft Fair. Sueded silk with a woodland scene + antlers to illustrate a silly pun inspired by a historical poesy ring. Close-up below, because I’m pretty proud of my tiny hart. #embroidery #stitchsky

A set of ribbon garters. The ribbons are pale yellow grosgrain. The fabric is cream sueded silk, with detailed embroidery. The first garter features an embroidered woodland scene of trees, flowers, a stag with antlers (aka a hart), and the words “you have my hart.” The second garter features embroidery of two antlers bedecked with flowers, and the words “please give it back.”

More garter commissions! Velvet ribbon, hellebore, and Icelandic poppy, with a steamy (for the time period) motto from a poesy ring. Close-ups below for fiber freaks who wanna ogle some tiny thread painting. (Cross-posted from my fandom account.) #embroidery #stitchsky

A set of ribbon garters. The ribbons are mustard yellow velvet. The fabric is white, with detailed floral embroidery of hellebore and Icelandic poppies in shades of yellow, pink, peach, orange, red, and purple. Embroidered text on the garters is in a gothic Old English-style font, and reads “I long to have but blush to crave.”

Did you know that getting called a crybaby as a neurodivergent child will mess you up so much that your therapist encourages you to make weird art about it decades later? True story. (Photography, watercolor, cotton, and beads.) #fiberart #embroidery #stitchsky

Close-up of an embroidery piece with white fabric and a printed photo outline of a crying human eye, painted in green watercolor and embroidered with various shades of green floss and beads. The iris of the eye features smooth, tidy stitches; the tears are stitched in a textured, unruly style.

The penultimate design phase for the final set of commissioned garters from the OFMD Craft Fair. (Text blurred for more of a reveal once I’ve actually stitched them.) Cross-posted from my fandom account. #embroidery #needlework #stitchsky

Pencil-drawn designs for two floral garters, with text that’s blurred out. Around the designs are several skeins of colorful embroidery floss and some lovely velvet ribbon in mustard yellow.

A new patch for my swim gear bag! From a pattern by @badstitch.bsky.social. I tried a different finishing/edging technique, and while it looks a little wonky, I think that only adds to the charm. #crossstitch #embroidery #needlework #stitchsky

Close-up of a round patch made of white aida fabric and featuring a stylized mushroom design with a rainbow stripes for the gills and stars on the cap.

Another finish from the Let’s Make A Statement series by Dee’s Twenty Stitches. Happy Pride Month, keep fighting for a world in which this statement is implicitly understood and respected. #embroidery #crossstitch #stitchsky

A pennant of navy blue aida fabric with these words cross-stitched on it: “Trans folks always have been and will be.” The words “trans folks” are stitched in the colors of the trans flag. The words are embellished with little images of planet Earth, as well as a bird and some vines.

Got this far as of last night. It will soon be time to take it off the hoop for completion of this square. Improvisational hand stitched modular #FiberArt #SciArt - one piece of a NeuroArt piece

A hand holding a blue hoop with canvas that is mostly covered with yellow and blue embroidery within the hoop circle. All embroidery is hand stitched in different stitches and colors. Lots of swirls, a heart and some flower shapes stand out. There are also beads and sequins

Close up of hand embroidery - yellows and oranges on top with blue tones on bottom. There is a huge variety of stitches and colors within the primary tones.

This original goldenrod piece uses shimmery gouache & gold floss for highlights. It's inspired by 2 brilliant humans who love me enough to forage goldenrod & turn it into tincture to help w/ my intractable allergy migraines in ragweed season. #embroidery #stitchsky #needlework

An embroidery hoop with white fabric that’s been painted in a shimmery yellow ombre, and stitched with a diamond shape in the background and a detailed, flowering yellow goldenrod plant in the foreground. The diamond and several background sparkles are stitched in metallic gold floss

Custom garter commissions from the OFMD Craft Fair! The lovely donor wanted a set inspired by a certain ineffable duo 😇😈. Stitching all those teeny tiny feathers and scales took awhile; worth it, though. (Cross-posting from my fandom account.) #embroidery #stitchsky #needlework #goodomens

A set of two embroidered ribbon garters. One garter is stitched on beige linen with light blue satin ribbon. It depicts a cup of tea with a halo, flanked by two books and a white feathered angel wing on each side. The other garter is stitched on charcoal linen and blood red satin ribbon. It depicts a red apple and black snake flanked by stars, plants, and black feathered demon wings on each side.
