I repaired my jeans with a bunch of embroidery! The knee is done with sashiko and is a lot stronger now, I think I'll go over the back of all the embroidery with fabric glue to hold it in place since I wear these on a regular basis. (ID in alt)

Accidental trans colors. I’m so tempted to reorganize the colors to make it the actual trans flag

thinking today about how much I love literally all fiber arts. I am hopeless at almost every other kind of art, but as soon as there is thread, yarn, or string I can figure it out fairly quickly.

I learned how to knit when i was eight, started sewing at nine, my dad taught me rock climbing knots around that age, I figured out from a book how to make friendship bracelets, I've made my own drop spindle to make yarn with, and more recently I've picked up visible mending. I've learned embroidery through fixing my overalls, and this year I've learned how to darn and how to do sashiko (which I did for the first time today). After years of being unable to crochet I finally figured it out last night and made seven granny squares in just a few hours.

I want to learn every fiber art that I can. I want to quilt, I want to use a spinning wheel, I want to weave, I want to learn tatting, I want to learn how to weave a basket, I want to learn them all. If I could travel through time and meet anyone in the Bible, high on my list are the craftsmen who made the Tabernacle.

I want to travel the world and learn the fiber arts of every culture, from the gorgeous Mayan weaving in Guatemala, to the stunning batik of Java, to Kente in Ghana. I want to sit at the feet of experienced men and women and watch them do their craft expertly and learn from them.

Of every art form I've seen, it's fiber arts that tug most at my heartstrings.

My latest sashiko patch, using the asanoha (hemp leaves) pattern.

This is the second mend I’ve done using a tissue paper template. See below for details on how it works (or doesn’t - I’m undecided).

1. Pin your patch in place on the inside of the item of clothing.

2. Trace grid and design onto tissue paper. My tissue is just scrap from packaging. I traced over a quilting ruler to get everything lined up.

3. Pin in place over the fabric. I didn’t bother removing the original pins, but did leave a wide border round the tissue to help with pinning.

4. Use the pattern guide to sew, stitching through the tissue, original fabric and reinforcing fabric. The tissue will start to tear as you do this. I took out all the pins once I’d stitches all the vertical lines.

5. Peel away the tissue paper and your pattern is revealed! I actually did this a little early, as I had enough lines in place to complete the pattern without a template.

This is the second time I’ve tried this approach. It is really good for getting an accurate pattern - I’ve never had much luck with marking grids straight onto the fabric. However, it does make it really hard to get the fine details right, as the paper obscures them as you’re stitching. That’s why the centre points on my piece look so messy - I just couldn’t see where the other stitches were.

As requested, here’s the progress on one of my “completed” whales :) Naturally, I still have to edge it and attach it to the jacket, but it’s so sparkly.

You can also see my nice antique pincushion in the back :)

#so my plan is #I have three whales that will be all beaded like this #I may do some beaded edging on each #and then I’m going to try to do a sashiko wave embroidery on half the jacket #so the whales will be swimming through the waves #so far the embroidery has taken me a few weeks because I only like texturized stitches #satin stitch bores me to no end #but we’ll get to the jacket after this last whale #so yeah that’s my current project #just a buzzing bee #embroidery #beadwork #threadwork #fiber arts #my art #whale #cetaceans #I dunno more tags I guess

3 visits to the store later, finally I managed to get some purple embroidery thread. Think I’m done with this pattern for right now
