Got so much done on my double dog embroidered portrait yesterday! Hoping for another good day and will have the end in sight!
Finally have some good progress on this double dog portrait embroidery! It’s a reference to my favorite podcast, I Said No Gifts!, featuring the host’s pets.
My first finish of 2026 is deeply silly but I’m still happy with the likeness I was able to achieve of this Elrond and Frodo Lord of The Rings meme! I added a ribbon border to fit the matte board I chose (and somehow wildly missized), and like how the brass frame sets off the piece!
Happy #NationalBirdDay Here are just a few of my hand embroidered bird themed artworks. Find all my work on my website www.emilytull.co.uk #birds #BirdArt #embroidery #WildlifeArtb
Nearly have his whole face done apart from the rest of the jawline and the forehead, then onto the curls (and avoiding the hands). #HeatedRivalry #Embroidery #BeadEmbroidery

Antonia Keithahn@sewfresh.bsky.social · 8mo agoI’m so pleased with how this is turning out! The high-contrast lighting is making my beading options so much more dynamic. #HeatedRivalry #ConnorStorrie #Embroidery #BeadEmbroidery
It's fascinating to see the changes in one company's logo over the years.

Antonia Keithahn@sewfresh.bsky.social · 8mo agoThe shadows are going to help this portrait come together.
WILL be updating my daily cursing of every shitty feature I am forced to use at work (or have to spend time disabling, unclicking, ferreting out how to thwart) to Microslop.

I have largely resisted Reels and it 100% has limited my reach on Instagram, a platform which now disincentivizes non-moving and audio-free posts.
Reallllly pushing the limits of how small I can realistically bead embroider but I do feel like this looks like Connor Storrie so far. #HeatedRivalry #Embroidery #BeadEmbroidery
My #ArtVArtist2025 featuring a few faves from this year! All bead embroidery: Lady Gaga, Irving B watermelon head, The Reluctant Bride, and the “This is fine” dog. Embroidery and mixed media: Chappell Roan, Kim Kitsuragi, Fun Feast, Oh, Mary! and the Severance MDR team.
Got a perfect shaft of light and caught this image of my bead embroidery of The Reluctant Bride. You can actually see the beads sparkle better in the half-light.
I hate how everything is now labeled “ai” to make it sound sexy, but the innovation seems to be “we’ll send this info to cops.”

Impossible to get photos of this, I think partly because of the low opacity muted color story.

Finishing up the edge on this bead embroidery piece before delivering it to my client in a couple days!

#ArtAdventCalendar Day 24 I haven’t even completely finished yet but I consider my bead embroidery masterpiece: a beaded version of Auguste Toulmouche’s The Reluctant Bride. I beaded this in 4 sections and transferred and joined them on the backing fabric which is in a stained 16” quilting hoop.
This was a delightful trip through my own art archive and a great way to find other creative folks on here! Thanks for hosting and brightening up the season, @jayispainting.earthskyart.ca!
JayIsPainting 🍁@jayispainting.earthskyart.ca · 9mo agoThat's it for me for #artAdventCalendar 2025. Thanks to all 630 of you who participated. We finish with over 8500 images with 97% AltText usage. That's remarkable. Know that you made a difference to someone in the last 24 days. Sam approves.
Merry Krampus to all! I never took a finished photo of this ornament because I was rushing to get it in the mail, but this was a fun stitch up last year.
Yes, here’s each section in a 7-8” hoop (I had two I used for stitching)!
