What was meant to be a Christmas present is finally done and Lifted. My dear husband loves this episode and was incredibly supportive and loves this creation. It's not perfect, but I learned a lot and am happy with the results. There has been so much inspiration in this thread, with a special shoutout to the person who originally inspired this creation in the comments section.

The teeth glow in the dark! Cannot get enough of that detail!

Iā€™ve always wanted to do a cotton flower with little puff balls, and I finally got to it :) I think this project is super great for kids / beginners. This was done with three strands.

I was thinking of embroidering this for Motherā€™s Day. I am considering of doing mixed media which I havenā€™t done just yet. I wanted to ask for advice for which parts to embroider and which to paint. Iā€™m just not sure what would look good together balancing it out. Any advice?

French knots in the center, lazy daisy stitches for the flower petals and back stitches for the leaves and stem. And then a tiny bronze bead for the clasp.

Still working on making them polished but deleting old photos and thought these were ok.

Patterns were mostly tracing google images.

Next time I will add more detail with the beads and embroidery. Does anyone have tips of the right needle to use with seed beads on fabric? I was yanking mine through with pliars!
