Due to popular local requests, I've created an Etsy page. It's craftivistembroidery.etsy.com. Started by listing 4 of my hand embroidered Progress Pride flag lapel pins, one of my most difficult yet versatile designs. I will also accept custom orders or replicas of any of my previous designs.

Finishing this very diverse hoop of patches! Got the peace in Ukraine flower, artistic interpretation of the leather community pride flag (very important part of pride history!), nonbinary pride flag, and two Gilbert Baker pride flag 70's flowers.

Heard there's a Defund Palantir National Protest today! Coincidentally, I just finished this 1984 themed patch using the #Palantir logo. Tried a few new techniques. It's not perfect, but I love it. Feelings have been expressed.

Black and red patch with a thin white border and the Palantir logo in the middle. Text on top of the logo says "It's always 1984 somewhere."

Bi and pan pride flag flowers! Pan is my favorite because of the CMYK color scheme (missing K though). CMYK can make any color, much like the broad attraction possible in pansexuality. The bi flag is very calming, though.

In honor of every minute spent doing paperwork and calling people to live instead of living (looking at you, governments and insurance companies), I made this patch that doubles as a hazard sign: administrative burden can be deadly.

Yellow patch in the shape of a triangular hazard sign, stating "Warning: Administrative Burden" with a skull and crossbones in the middle symbolizing deadly hazard.

I present... TBH/Autism Creature in a summer hat! Tried a basket weave stitch I saw online for the first time. It feels exactly like a woven rug.

Just finished embroidering another swirl design. This one is in Progress Pride flag colors. I like how smooth these feel. Chain stitch and silk stitch are some of my favorite embroidery textures by far. Used white gold nylon for the border.

Trying a little vent poetry.

#poetry #poem #freeform #bbb #ice #history
How much longer until quoting history is a threat? Until speaking-remembering luring into dark woods with sweet words and a knife someone's son who rips sons from their mothers-wives-children's homes-cars-streets is a threat? How much longer until speaking-remembering they wouldn't bomb the train tracks dark trains slits in sides heavy on tracks Remembering they wouldn't drop the bombs the hope that bombs would fall mixing chemicals placing hope without a flag is a threat? How much longer until speaking-remembering forged documents holes in ceilings cellars walls flipped beds to hide the warmth is a threat?

Thus ends my last-minute #Pride #embroidery dump for pride month. More in progress. Pride #stitchsky is year-round for me because I enjoy it (lovely color scheme) and it's a cool way to radically exist and be visible.

As a final bonus, here's what the finished stuff looked like on an 8 inch hoop.
Hooped embroidery.

Queer question, or questioning queer? Questions and ambiguity are such a basic part of LGBTQIA+ life (both regarding the self and perceiving others) that I just had to express it in stitches. This one is to silently yell "FELLOW GAY/NON-CIS?" at the locals.

Pansexual pride flag themed strawberry! I like the CMYK theme of the flag. CMYK can make any color combination, just like pansexuality can mean attraction to any gender or regardless of gender. Also, CMYK matches every outfit.

Stitched this pair of lesbian pride flags as a gift. The sunset color theme of the community lesbian flags are my favorite of all pride flags. Relaxing and romantic vibes. Added yellows from the butch pride flag as borders.

I was inspired by the Gilbert Baker pride flag flower project I did earlier this month to turn the full spectrum colors into another endless swirl. It's somewhere between candy and seashell. Added a nylon border this time.

A swirl in bisexual flag colors! I really enjoy this shape. Stitching the swirl between the silk stitch stripes is particularly satisfying.

Pair of embroidered pins for pockets. Rainbow pride flag peace signs returned to meaning denuclearization between start and finish. The Norwich stitch triangles are a reminder that LGBTQIA+ rights are not set in stone. We must remain active defending them.

Planetary rings constantly fall into the planets they orbit. Bi rings around the lesbian planet illustrate how I feel: always in orbit about to fall in. Yellow border is from the butch pride flag.

A planet with Jupiter-like stripes in the 7 colors of the new lesbian flag, surrounded by rings in bisexual flag colors. The yellow border around the whole piece is a shade from the butch pride flag.

I stitched this 70's flower in the original 1978 Gilbert Baker pride flag colors, complete with pink, light blue, and turquoise. I like the way the colors blend into a fluid circle. Also my first attempt at the woven rose stitch. Penny for scale.

Just finished this lesbian flag strawberry. Red leaves are a soft reference to the kiss on the early lesbian flag, plus it gives it a color-flipped feel. Lavender border because it's a significant lesbian color.

Sunset flower garden love vibes.

Another pride flag I embroidered awhile ago: the bisexual pride flag. Used raised stem band stitch for the pink and blue and brick stitch for the lavender. Hard to see on camera, but the whip stitch border is glitter étoile. Penny for scale.

Embroidered this pride flag awhile back, but kept procrastinating finding a penny for scale (image 2). Includes chain stitch, backstitch, split stitch, and french knots with classic whip stitch border. It's the first official pride flag I embroidered.

Still working on other stuff in the hoop so no border on this one yet, but had to post it for #TransDayOfVisibility. Base design credits to @lilhoneybunn on DeviantArt. Embroidered over the base design using cotton thread and like 5 different stitches. #transpride #transart #embroidery #craftivism

Doodled then embroidered this egg. Used gay and trans pride flag colors. Meant to allude to the feeling sometimes felt when on the cusp of coming out, no matter if it's the first time or 200th time. #lgbtqia #pride #craftivism #embroidery
Embroidered egg with rainbow stripes, black cracks on top, a blue eye with eyelashes on the bottom, and peach pink border.
