It's been a while since I bombarded you all with a swarm of beetle photos. So here are some beetles I've stitched, including some little peeks under 'the hood'. :D

Many questions - so editing to add:

If you'd like to learn how I make these, I do have a work-at-your-own-pace online workshop that shows how I make them: https://pardalote.teachable.com/p/embroidered-beetle

If you just want to look at more of my beetles, there are more photos on my website: https://www.pardalotemakes.com/
