There are two types of amateur sewist.

Type 1: People who want a fun hobby, making their own clothing/accessories/ soft furnishings all the while developing a lifelong skill.

Type 2: People who want to fight God.

Neither are interested in hemming your trousers

Give it a go!

I mostly cross stitch and do a bit of freehand embroidery, and at first it did take me a while to get my eye in - but I was moving and grooving in no time.

I'm going to try the biscornu pattern next, I think.

I was too slow for the brain moth stickers, but I've put in my order! Really looking forward to seeing them in the flesh. I love your style.

Thank you 😊. It's my first go at blackwork and I'm pleased with how it turned out. The outlining stitch is a stem stitch.

Have had a bit of a hiatus with my needlework for health reasons and it's been months since I felt well enough to pick up a project.

But today, I finally finished my #blackwork from @loosethreadstitch.bsky.social

Photograph of a blackwork embroidery depicting a stem of pink and white orchids, with green buds at the top of the stem. The blackwork is stitched on deep green Aida fabric.

Are you spooked? 😏

#inktober #heavy #digitalart #halloween #spooky

An old car driving down a country road at night. Conifer trees overhang the road, telephone poles line one side. In the foggy background a huge jotun is shown stepping over the road.
The jotun has a ridged back and has large hand-like appendages with long, menacing claws extending from them. Their head is of a huge deer skull, with antlers extending, and an eye glowing like a full moon.

Day 9: BEWITCHING 🧙‍♀️🐈‍⬛

#SuperBatober #Inktober #inktober2025

SUPERBATOBER 09: BEWITCHING -- Catwoman has just pulled of another of her classic and witchy heists, a cat-eared diamond and cauldron full of jewels in her mitts. Batman is too entranced by her beautiful "spell" to do much about it (at the annoyance of Batgirl and endearment of Supergirl).

“Changing leaves” ✏️ ❤️💙 #Caitvi #StillFantastic #Inktober

Colored pencil drawing of a maple leaf divided into red and blue halves, filled with intricate gear and jewel-like patterns inspired by Arcane’s Vi and Caitlyn. The leaf rests on beige paper with red and blue pencils beside it, symbolizing change and duality for the ‘changing leaves’ theme.

Quite the opposite.

Our 2026 Wall Calendars are great for writing in those important events you don’t want to forget. For example, pick a date next year and write in, “Topple Government”. That way you’ll remember to topple the Government.
