- Well, it's been a long (8 months to be exact) journey, but here we are at the end, with a finished embroidery piece and sore fingers. Thanks to everyone who watched Part 1, who followed along on IG, and who gave me encouragement along the way... when it's hard to keep stitching on a giant piece like this, those things really help motivate me!

glad im not the only person that can't sit correctly while doing art
Haha art requires the most creative of sitting positions!
If legs didn't just randomly fall asleep, we wouldn't have to keep adjusting them all the time XD
Try using a layer or two of tulle as interfacing, each rotated slightly from the last -- it's ridiculously resistant to stretch at exact right angles, very light, and feels like stitching through plain cloth. If you don't like the scratchy feeling of tulle against your fingers on the back of the piece, you can always put another layer of cotton to protect the back. Good stuff!
Maybe use an arrow instead of a straight line for direction in the 1 colour to distinguish it from 1 to make it less confusing
That's an excellent idea!
Absolutely gorgeous! You inspire me to learn the art of embroidery and master it
Thank you! I certainly hope you give it a try!
That piece is phenomenally gorgeous! I’m working on my own epic beast of a project. It’s a cross approximately 36” x 24” on 28 ct evenweave. I’m just doing 1/2 the cross with 1 strand because it’s so small. It’s a pattern from Heaven & Earth designs called Ye Olde Craft Room and I chose the supersized max color version because I wanted lots of detail. Of course this translates into lots of confetti. There are 237 colors listed (although for any color that has less than 100 stitches in the whole project amidst a sea of confetti, I use the next closest). The pattern has 700,000 stitches. I’m 13% through and I estimate that if I work steadily on it (avg a couple of hours a day), it will take about 10 YEARS. Of course it will actually be longer, because sometimes I just want to do some black work instead (one color, repeating patterns, what a relief). And darn it if I don’t have to add satin stitch embroidery to the growing list of crafts on my someday list now!
i love your stories and i love your attitude of do it the you want and just start that project. please keep ALL of the babble and stories coming theyare great
I have automotive finishing tape all round the edges of my fabric where I hold it with my hands. it keeps the fabric clean, and the tape only has slightly more tack than painter's tape. It holds down well, but peels up without leaving residue.
amazing
Loved it
I was waiting for an update about this work . You really did it great... ❤️
Thank you so much!!
Gorgeous!!! Your next big project is going to be AWESOME!!!!
Thank you and I certainly hope so! (I'm kind of super duper excited...)
@@gettheetothestitchery I'm excited, too!!
I really hope you see this comment since it's an old video. I am currently working on a small, but similar project and a question arose. What went into your decision of the stitch direction of each piece? Just random directions? Anything that feels good? Or different colors, same direction for something and why? I would love to learn/hear from you what your thought process is there.
That is a masterpiece. My mom did embroidery. I did not. I did teach myself to candlewick to put in a vintage quilt i did my hand and mach8ne. Yours is stunning
It’s really lovely. If you are going to frame it you could always get a mount cut for it which would cover the corners.
Another possibility is to use a little bit of washing soda, which is awesome for removing grease from garments (& off kitchen cabinets too, LOL. It’s what ‘sugar soap’ is for degreasing prior to painting).
Oxy powder, like Vanish might do it, too.
Omg I love this
Шикарный результат! Я в восторге😍 Сил и вдохновения вам для других проектов 🍀💪🏻
That turned out so beautiful!
Magnificent!
It’s probably different for a stained glass style but I start back to front.
That is STUNNING! And after eight months of work, you should sell it to some really rich person for $50,000 (ok, not really). What's sad, though, is that like the work of any great artist, it appreciates more hundred of years after the artist has lived. But it is stunning! ❣
Absolutely gorgeous, I love seeing the process!
How big is your Q-snap frame? I’d want to try and make this project about as big as you have :D
wait holy crap 3 TIMES THE SIZE??!!
It's a 15x15 inch square on the inside, and I am so excited that you're going to give this piece a go! (And yep, the next piece I'm doing will likely be around 3 times the size of this one. Yikes!)
that is so cool i want to be as good as u some day
Aw you are so sweet, thank you so much!
Is it long and short stitch embroidery?
👋👌👌👌👍🏻👍🏻👏👏👏😍😍😍🤗
Why did you hair dry it?
I use a heat erasable pen to draw patterns, so when I'm finished, I hair dry it to remove the marks!
@@gettheetothestitchery the hair dryer works! Ive been using steam from my iron but it Shrinks my yarn causing puckers. Thanks going to try my hair dryer.
I do love your work, but you do complain A LOT as of late. If it's that hard, please quit before it becomes a burden.
Haha stick around for much, much more complaining from me - that's just how I communicate.
Steve, and those that can’t do, complain about those who can do. Strange and unnecessary comment. Bet the women in your life wish they could get away from you. Her work is absolutely gorgeous and you could have left your comment at that.
