Look at how fuzzy he is!!!! 😍😍😍 . . . #emroidery #threadpainting #art #frogcircus #frogs #brachycephalusdacnis #bumblebee #bombusdahlbomii #fuzzybee

Got me a cute little helper today! She’s always a willing lap-warmer and string-chomper. 😹 . . . #embroidery #cats #art #houseportrait #watercolor #cabin #landscapeembroidery

First of the Frog Circus done! She’s dying to look into her crystal ball and tell you your fortune. And she definitely hasn’t trapped lightning bugs (or are they glow worms?) for her lanterns….. #embroidery #frogs #circus #redeyedtreefrog #fortuneteller #art #beading

I’m making a new series!! I might or might not be waaay too invested in this little frog circus…. I 100% did entirely too much research about which species gets which role 😅 But they’re gonna be so cute!!! #embroidery #wipwednesday #art #frogs #frogcircus #embroiderypattern

LOOK AT HIM!! Out there living his best life playing with the lanterns while the sun sets. 😻 #cats #embroidery #stumpwork #watercolor #art #beading

I’m getting lots of help today… 😹 #cats #sewing

Drafted a new piece today! No idea when I'll ever get around to it, but it'll be so cute when I do! The lights are going to come out and around the hoop on the left (cat) side, and maybe one of the cat's arms and his tail will be stumpwork... #embroidery #stumpwork #art #cats #watercolor

I think I’ve finally lost my mind - why did I (and am still continuing to) choose to fill the majority of the brown space with these teeny tiny chain stitches?? It’ll be worth it, but 🫠🫠🫠🫠 #embroidery #garden #houseportrait #art

A slight deviation from the usual to show off my cute nails! Inspired by the adorable photos I see floating around of cats roaming in Monet paintings. #nailart #monet #waterlilies #impressionist #cats #nails

Y’all… Look at this teeny tiny garden! I don’t think I’ve ever made such small flowers with actual details; I’m usually a right-color-french-knot-is-good-enough kind of girl. I’d bet money each little coneflower is about 1mm wide! 😳 #embroidery #art #garden #miniatures

l'm trying something new - l've got a ko-fi and Patreon! (Is it a bit overkill to have both? Probably..........) It's mostly for anyone that buys patterns so that all the tutorials l've made, but I also just released a free pattern! Links in my bio, or just type in this same name. #embroidery #art

Being able to capture the memories of y’all’s homes is always special, but even more so when it’s a home that’s been lost to natural disasters. I’ve absolutely loved every step of piecing this landscape together to keep those wonderful memories alive! #embroidery #houseportrait #art #wipwednesday

The Ladybug Serenade is finished! A new favorite, for sure. 😍 #embroidery #art #watercolor #bugs #moonlight #crewel

A ladybug moonlight serenade! Is he giving a soliloquy in awe of the moon while the others look on enraptured? Is he making magical music so the others can dance under the moonlight? What do you think? #embroidery #art #moonlight #crewel #ladybugs #bugs

Halfway through another piece! I think this one might be a new favorite… 😍 #embroidery #art #ladybugs #moon #watercolor

Today’s sewing adventures: I made a belt! My 30s/40s dress had loops but no belt, so I found an art deco belt buckle and attached the belt to it. Now I’m thinking I need to make all the fun belts…… 😍😂 #vintageclothing #sewing #antiquebelt

Trying out some #sashiko mending on one of my vintage dresses! I was torn between matching the thread with the pink or the taupe, but then decided the pink might be a touch too busy with the pattern. #visiblemending #embroidery #vintageclothing

A new favorite!! Inspired by my favorite illustrator Arthur Rackham. I have always been enthralled by his (and others of his era) illustrations ever since I first saw them in fairy books! #embroidery #dryad #fairy #arthurrackham #artnouveau #belleepoque #art

It’s always the ones that give me the most grief that end up being a favorite! I almost hate to part with this one…. #embroidery #houseportrait #art #watercolor #garden #cactus

Making some progress! #embroidery #houseportrait #watercolor #art #crafting

Another little one complete! It was fun making distinct flowers; usually they’re so small in my house portraits they’re just tiny colorful knots! #embroidery #landscapes #mountains #flowers #art #sunrise

A rare look at a unembroidered canvas! I never remember to take a photo at the beginning until I’ve already got all the windows done or something. (Really I just never remember to take any photos but the ones at the end….. 🙈🤷‍♀️) #wipwednesday #embroidery #art #watercolor #embroiderypattern

Another piece off to its new home! #embroidery #houseportrait #watercolor #art #sunset

Doing some painting on a previously abandoned WIP, and of course she had to help out by making sure I couldn’t close the lid so I could paint the lid…. PaY aTtEnTiOn tO MEEEE mOtHeR 😹 #cats

I'm super proud of this piece! (Not showing the whole design for privacy; it's a logo.) I absolutely hate long and short stitch as a filler because it's sooooo incredibly time consuming to get done nicely (and the adhd says ‘no’ 😂). #embroidery #longandshortstitch #art #coffee

Making some progress on this house portrait! #embroidery #houseportrait #commissions #watercolor #art #sunset

Three new tiny ones! 3” hoops, and they all took around 9-12 hours each. Watercolor, embroidery, and wool roving. #embroidery #art #miniatures #sunset #flowers #landscape

Finished a new piece yesterday! About 9 hours of work, and (for once) very little actual embroidery. Circuit boards for skyscrapers, wool roving tree limbs, iridescent flower sequins, and chain stitched leaves. Not what I first planned, but it works! #loreolympus #webtoon #embroidery #fanart #art

We went to several beaches (of course). My favorite was the grassy, tree covered section of Waikiki near their house, but this one on the North Shore was fun to try and photograph some waves at! #photography #hawaii #beaches #waves #nature

We made a snail friend at Waimea Botanical Garden and watched him much away on a leaf! I also wished for my old Nikon so that I could’ve gotten some really neat macro shots of all the mossy rocks… #photography #hawaii #moss #snail #animal #art

Get ready for some vacation photo spam! 😂 I just got back from visiting family in Honolulu and (as usual) took ALL the photos. Waimea Botanical Gardens got the bulk of the photos; so many neat plants! Here’s my favorite flowers from there. #flowers #photography #hawaii #nature

Sparkle cat! When you have to choose between a solid void or a sparkly void, always go for the sparkle! #art #embroidery #cats #voidcat #garden #gardenembroidery #catembroidery

1/3 of the way done! As always, I got the fun part done first, so now I’m stuck with the less-fun rock wall and door. 😂 #embroidery #art #watercolor #garden

Stealing some time to work on a new piece! It’s going to be two layered hoops with a working door 😍

A twisty cat snake to show off my read books from last year! I love how it looks like she’s jumping through circus hoops or something. 😻 #embroidery #cats #booklist
