Want some embroidery with attitude?

I made Midnight Mischief — 5 neon-bright embroidery pdfs for anyone who wants chaos, curses, and petty dragons in their hoop. 🧪🐉🕷️

Grab a pattern or the whole set and stitch up some trouble:
ko-fi.com/fraydikat/shop

Five circular embroidery hoop patterns on dark fabric with vibrant thread, advertising a 'New Release! PDF Embroidery Patterns.' The five designs feature whimsical, witchy-themed text and imagery: 'Essence of Chaos' (potion bottle), 'Hoarding Grudges' (dragon), 'Spun From Spite' (spider and web), 'Manifesting Mayhem' (cat and potion), and 'HexPress Delivery: Karma' (bat). Colorful embroidery floss and iridescent scissors are visible as accents.

The design features a stylized potion bottle with an eye and mystical symbols, embroidered on dark fabric in vibrant neon colors (pink, blue, and yellow). The image includes the overlaid text: '5 Vibrant witchy, whimsical designs' and 'Digital Download Hand Embroidery Pattern.'

A close-up photograph of a hand holding a circular embroidery hoop displaying the 'MANIFESTING MAYHEM' hand embroidery pattern. The design, on dark fabric, features a stylized purple cat knocking over a green potion vial, with a yellow crescent moon and stars. The words 'MANIFESTING MAYHEM' are embroidered in neon blue thread. The image includes the overlaid text: 'Playful, chaotic charm' and 'Digital Download Hand Embroidery Pattern.'

A close-up photograph of a hand holding a circular embroidery hoop displaying the 'HOARDING GRUDGES' hand embroidery pattern. The design features a grumpy, stylized dragon outlined in orange and purple, sitting atop a pile of colorful neon gems, with the title embroidered in neon green. The image includes the overlaid text: 'Patterns include stitch guides' and 'Digital Download Hand Embroidery Pattern.'

Anyone else out here surviving current events purely out of spite?

My spiteful spider weaves his web with glittering spite. He's gonna sparkle and shine, and he’ll be damned before he lets anyone erase him.

Part of the Midnight Mischief embroidery collection

Fray Dikat Studio @fraydikat.bsky.social · 7h

It's awesome! I was working on one that's about 2/3 done but got distracted by other projects.

Fray Dikat Studio @fraydikat.bsky.social · 7h

Holy crow! I want one. I have a couple antique Singers, but they aren't this cute.

Fray Dikat Studio @fraydikat.bsky.social · 2d

I really like that one too

I will, i promise!

Fray Dikat Studio @fraydikat.bsky.social · 2d

You're right. Spookiness is demanded right now. I must answer the call

Fray Dikat Studio @fraydikat.bsky.social · 3d

I really wanted to finish this piece before I started another cross stitch, but at the rate I'm going if I don't temporarily park it, I might not get any of the spooky patterns I've downloaded done before Halloween!

Pattern by @badstitch.bsky.social

I love the chaos. It really catches that cute but slightly unsettling vibe

Fray Dikat Studio @fraydikat.bsky.social · 3d

Who else is too tired to play nice today?

Manifesting Mayhem is a mischievous feline familiar, ready to knock things over (literally or metaphorically) to make a point.

Pattern: ko-fi.com/s/e4917f7ddc

A close-up of an embroidery hoop on a purple, patterned fabric. The embroidery is on dark black and blue fabric and features a purple-outlined cat knocking over a glowing green potion bottle. The text "MANIFESTING" is embroidered in turquoise above the cat, and "MAYHEM" is below the cat. A pair of rainbow-colored embroidery scissors and two bobbins of floss are visible next to the hoop.

That's amazing. I love that you used your art that way

Fray Dikat Studio @fraydikat.bsky.social · 4d

Cute!

Fray Dikat Studio @fraydikat.bsky.social · 4d

Oooh, I love quilting with scraps, too. Have you tried any collage or confetti quilting, or mostly patchwork?

Fray Dikat Studio @fraydikat.bsky.social · 4d

Nice! Cross stitch is a new addition for me, but I'm loving it.

Fray Dikat Studio @fraydikat.bsky.social · 4d

I forgot to include felting and spinning! I'm sorry, fiber friends!

🐑 Felting
🌀 Spinning

Fray Dikat Studio @fraydikat.bsky.social · 4d

Omgoodness they're adorable!!! I totally forgot to include felting and that's something I want to try someday

Fray Dikat Studio @fraydikat.bsky.social · 4d

I'm curious: what fiber arts do you do? I'm betting a lot of us do more than 1, and I want to see if it's true.
