I spent a good part of the afternoon hemming a pair of jeans. But that's not very interesting so here's an embroidery that I did in high school.
sometimes you just need a little sidekick
beetle embroidery by me, 2025.
Finished my cat Eevee's embroidery portrait~ couldnt keep it from puckering so maybe will use thicker fabric or a stabilizer for my other cat's portrait~
Just listed these little guys on my website! I'm super excited to be expanding this species list (especially making my way through all the Psyllobora) so keep an eye out for future sculptures. π

I love how the Aurora turned out! Couldn't decide between the purple and teal, so I did both, lol.

I made this cross-stitched monstera leaf magnet for my friend. I think it turned out really pretty!
The satisfaction when you finish your knit and only have the washing and blocking left to do!
Pattern is the Illusion vest by EMRKNITS, i modified it to have a more boxy fit.
I used the Heritage 6 yarn by CascadeYarns
Took a month to complete, started it on January 15th, finished it on February 15th!
Something like this would be so colossally helpful. I'm sick and tired of trying to research specific clothing from any given culture and being met with either racist stereotypical costumes worn by yt people or ai generated garbage nonsense, and trying to be hyper specific with searches yields fuck all. Like I generally just cannot trust the legitimacy of most search results at this point. It's extremely frustrating. If there are good resources for this then they're buried deep under all the other bullshit, and idk where to start looking.

May I present to you, nationalclothing.org?
It doesn't have everything, but it's still my first source when researching traditional clothing from other cultures.
There's also this resource on historical fashion: Claireβs Historical Fashion Reference & Resources
another addition as far as physical media goes there is the encyclopedia of national dress (that i still need to buy myself bc this kind of thing is super important to my sort of fantasy designing) but yes i do agree i wish there was EVEN MORE documentation on this
I had a hunt round and I think I found the potter. She also calls these 'dignity mugs', which I think is lovely
