Greetings to all Steemit people. I have a surprise for you!
My name is Emily. After I‘ve learned about Steemit and visited it for the very first time I just couldn’t simply sleep at night – it was so desperate to get back to Steemit online and find more and more interesting people and their stories there! It was very impressive, so I wanted to share with you some of my emotions and my joy, too!
I usually do embroidery during my spare time. Here are some my work examples.
I’ve learned about embroidery from my grandmother. Sadly, there’s no lots of time to spent for it and some other hobbies, but main point here is to have the wish and desire for it. I really wanted to create a Steemit-style embroidery!
Here, how it was created step-by-step:
First I went to the store to buy everything you need for embroidery.
I choose and bought the appropriate color of the thread and fabric.
At home I’ve got a lot of necessities and things like hoops, needles and special scissors.
Then, next step is to pull the fabric in the embroidery frame. After that one needs to understand and calculate, where the final design and pattern should be started. One of the most exciting actions here – are the very first stitches! It seems to me that they are the most important and whole result of heavily depends on them.
Gradually the pattern began to emerge on the fabric! It's so nice to see the results of your work, especially if you work with your whole soul!
Bit by bit, the design continues to grow.
Then I moved to the inscriptions.
Here are the latest stitches, it is a very important moment!
Now we have to wash it...
Do some ironing and place it into frame!
My embroidery is finally ready!
Believe me or not I counted all the crosses. 855 is absolutely correct.
Don't know why I counted. Enjoyed the post and must say: hello! Nice to see some new talents here
Hello, Timsaid! It's nice that you have counted the crosses! If will be interesting, I will make a new work, and I can teach you the embroidery! ;)
I'll give you my upvote.

onlyHi Emily, you have a very beautiful work of embroidery Steemit !!!
Thank you so much!))
I am no art connoisseur or an artist but by seeing this I know it for sure- this is art for me. I know a little about embroidery from my grand mother so I know how much patience and skill this require. I take my hat off to you! Respect
Oh, thank you very much for your kind words!
I learned all about embroidery from my grandmother too :)
Beautiful girl. Creativity super
Thanks for the compliment!
Great work! I wish you success here Emily.
Thank you very much!))
Looks great @emilysw. How do you remember when to stitch left vs when to stitch right? There must be a technique?
Thank you! I'm glad that you intrest of my work.)
Do you engage in embroidery?
If interested, I can make a detailed post about my cross stitch technique.
I think that there are very few people that understand the intricacies of embroidery. I think if you created a post about your technique it would be interesting and probably educational to most. Heck, it might even get a few folks interested in giving it a try themselves.
Wow you are really pretty creative person :) Love your lifestyle !
Thank you very much! I love to embroider!)
Nice creative work!
Thanks!)
