Hello Zrivie!! That's so funny! We truly must be on the same wavelength! I've recently been listening to TAD for some comfort and it ended up giving me the inspirtation to start stiching again 💖 I've just finished getting my design prepped and transfered so I'll start work on it soon! I do have a Twitter account specifically for my embroideries (@kell_stitches) but I haven't been on Twitter a whole lot either. I should make an instagram, though! If I end up making a handle I'll be sure to pass it along 💖

I feel like you'll snigger to hear I listened to Unwanted Animal 87 times in one Spotify wrapped...... in two months.

I can whole heartedly agree that TAD is my comfort band. There's not a bad day that can't be made better with their beautiful music!

"And you rip my ribcage open and devour what's truly yours"

Here we are, dear hearts, at the first truest anniversary of the release of The Horror and the Wild. An absolute masterpiece of an album that teaches us that we are capable of not only great fury and sadness, but beauty and kindness as well. I really looked into the meanings of flowers for this one, incorporating poppies, marigolds, and yarrow. Flowers that can represent anger and hurt, but also remembrance, passion, and healing. Anyway, here's my tribute to That Unwanted Animal by The Amazing Devil.

I made this custom jacket patch for my most lovliest friend for Christmas and she finally got in the mail so I can post it! We've bonded over many things, but our mutual love of Paramore is a big one. Brand New Eyes, especially.

Aaah it made me so happy to see another one of your beautiful creations

I know I told you before but you're legit a reason why I taught myself how to embroider so I can make things like this 😅

I just wanted to ask, do you use a cricut cutter for the letters? Cause I remember you said it's vinyl?

I bought some sheets recently for a bookbinding project and found that it's very hard to cut it nicely by hand but those machines are expensive 😅

Hope you have a wonderful end of the year and if you're celebrating anything, I hope you have a beautiful celebration

💚

Hello my darling Ty! I'm so sorry for the super late response, but I hope you're having the most wonderful New Year! You're so very sweet 💖

And in answer to your question, yes I use iron-on vinyl and a cricut machine to do all my lettering. When the cricut machine cuts it, it's actually a very shallow cut that only goes through the vinyl itself and not the attached backing so that may be where the problem is. I know the machines are expensive and I was lucky enough to get one as a Christmas gift from my family.

Embroidering the lettering isn't impossible, just not my own prefered method since I'm usually stitched out by the time I get to that part. You could potentially try using a fabric marker or a fine sharpie to write it in by hand? I would suggest typing/writing out your line first on separate paper to make sure it's exactly the way you want it, then use some method of backlighting (like a sunny window or a tablet/computer screen) to trace the line directly onto the cloth of the piece. I hope that makes sense 😅

"Stop asking why I'm sad, just know, it's enough to know I'm sad"

I know it's been awhile, but I'm simply couldn't let Madeleine Hyland's birthday pass without a little celebration. So here is a tribute to our benevolent queen, Madeleine, and the heartrending wonder that is Little Miss Why So by The Amazing Devil
