What it says on the box

i embroidered my jacket!

(there are also some various progress photos and close-ups)

learning sashiko has been so much fun and i'm still working on making my stitches more straight and less wonky, but for not having used a stitch guide for any of it and just drawing the pattern myself, i think it turned out pretty decent! it's not perfect but it's made with love and patient effort and that is what matters more. i might also do some stitching down the placket/outer trim eventually...but i like it for now :)

That's right folks, it's the photos from Operation Babybara are now live.

There are now a few hundred photos of adorable baby capybara on the repository page for the species! But I can't just say they're up and not show you immediately...

For those just tuning in, the trip to photograph the cute potatoes was completely funded by the site's incredibly dedicated - and apparently capybara obsessed - supporters.

See the rest here:

The Animal Photo Reference Repository is an independent, permanently open-access project and funded entirely by donations. Artists creating derivative or transformative works (without AI) have blanket permission to use all photos in the repository as references.

Finished stitching my Oversight series.
