𓆟𓅥

Trying to learn how simplified my initial drawings need to be before they get turned into fpp patterns. I think this one was still too complex and curved to translate how I wanted it to.

I don’t think I have a lot of nostalgia for my own work, but I frequently experience a thing where I’ll be okay or even a little disappointed with something I made, and then later I will find it again and because enough time has passed that I no longer associate the design with me, I see it more objectively and it’s so much better than I had thought at the time. These are legitimately charming. And in this particular case, I’m pretty sure I was half thrilled and half dismayed because the biggest box wasn’t as stable or square as I wanted it to be.
