My current project: tarting up my slipknot knotfest vip baseball cap!
First i sketched a rough design on it in white pencil. It had a funny bump just above the patch that made it sit funny so i had to put in a stitch to try and tuck it in a little
Then i had to scour the internet for skeins of charcoal and silver metallic embroidery/sewing thread which was like pulling teeth. The silver isn’t here yet >.>
Then i started embroidering! Of course i had to throw plenty of french knots in there, because i hate myself
(It looks fucking filthy but the camera catches every tiny fibre of fluff and oose that you can’t see irl, i promise it’s clean lol)
Looking forward to updating this thread as i continue!
I actually updated this yesterday but tumblr ate the fucking post so here’s yesterdays work
God i hate how every photo makes it look absolutely boggin
Aaaaaaand todays progress. My silver thread finally arrived so i could get the roses started
BONUS! My poor blistered finger. Eejit-features here forgot she has two embroidered patches to make for buyers, so I’m going to have to stop work on the hat for a few days so i can let my fingers recover enough to get them done. One is an easy make but the other is my most sewing-intensive design (the “bite me” patch) that i absolutely adore but cry internally every time someone buys
