I also really like the embroidery just as keeping my hands busy or keeping my mind occupied for a bit. It's somewhat a really relaxing type of work where I can easily watch something and embroider something.
Also I have already started on a new patch. A little tiger. I started with a theater class, and my plan is to give each tutor a little patch out of appreciation.
Altough I would like to sew together a blahaj and kinda make my own with different fabrics and what not.
But I don't know when I will get around to it. -

So I redownloaded it and I really liked it. I was a bit confused because when I used to play a lot I would use the teamfinding mechanic ingame. So I do kinda miss that.
But other than that because I'm an Ana one-trick I found it a bit confusing with all of these new heros. Atleast for the first few games.I still like the game and it's also very fun. I think it would be way more fun if I had people to play with consistently because playing alone kinda sucks and is very demotivating.
I think that is the reason why I had basically a OW2 phase for a few weeks when I would basically play it every evening and then just suddenly stop playing it.I think for a complete new player it's really hard to get into the game just because there is so so much to learn. With all the heroes all the abilities all the ults etc etc. Also I there are a lot of maps. Which I still get confused about. But luckily there is a system in place where people can pick and ban the maps so i like that. Also the new system of where you ban heroes I think I also really like.
I think overall the game is in a very good state and can be really fun.

faye_luna Linkhi is me, the thing that did some "sewing" I slept like horrible so this text will be a handful, but here we go So my original goal was to create Patches. I wanted to hand embroider them and also...- Exemplary
hi is me, the thing that did some "sewing"
I slept like horrible so this text will be a handful, but here we go
So my original goal was to create Patches. I wanted to hand embroider them and also learn the basics of sewing. And I think I achieved that goal yay :3.
I bought some jeans patches that you can iron on somewhere (they are 6x8 cm).
Most likely there are better options like normal fabric and an embroidery hoop. I ordered a hoop like a week ago and it has still not arrived.
In order of the stuff that I created:
I started with the Anarchy Patch
- I was really struggling with making shapes, as you can see in the arrow. But otherwise it's okay. Also the stitches are quite uneven and look messy. For anyone interested, the stitch I used is called cross-stitch.
- The dot in the middle is called a french-knot and is quite cool to do. It adds like texture to the eye which I like a lot :3. I really really don't like the "eyebrows" at the top. Otherwise it looks okay.
- First time in doing the satin stitch and trying to fill out a space. It's not perfect and the threads in some cases are a bit loose but I'm pretty happy with it overall. Also I am still not sure if filling out a whole area and then doing the detail on top is better or first doing the detail and then filling out the surrounding area. I am not sure what looks better. And I still need to try that.
I also applied this patch to my leather jacket. It looks quite goofy and makes me very happy.
Whole Shark -- top right
- Pleased with it. The thread isn't as loose as in the partial shark. Also I think the coverage is overall a bit better but still not perfect. The stitches are better structured, and I quite like that I arranged the bottom fin that the thread is going sideways and the overall body of the shark is going up and down. I messed up the eye which is a detail, and you can't really see it, but oh well. Stuff happens.
I gave this shark to a person that also liked sharks.
- It's okai. It looks a bit messy. Coverage is uneven. But I put a black border around it so the patch won't fray as much. It looks quite cute. I don't know where I will attach it yet. Maybe on my skirt that would be cool !!!
- I tried a Bayeux stitch. It saves a lot of thread. But I created the anchor point too far apart. But it still looks really cute. This time I put the details on top of the layering. And I am quite happy with it.
Leather bag fixing not embroidery :)
- So I have this old leather bag. I love it and since I thrifted it and it's old. The stitches are falling apart and came loose. It was really though. I used a embroidery needle and I pulled through the leather with tongs. Otherwise I couldn't get the needle through. It came out a lot better than expected and I used it already once and yay, the stiches held.
Side Quest -- My School Project
On some other note I had a school project and I saw on the internet that people sew into their polaroids and stuff. And I really wanted to try that. I only had a few days to come up with an Idea and so I photographed cracks in walls and on the street. And sew in some thread. The whole concept I personally believe kinda sucks and could be a lot better. But it was developed in an extremely short time. -

But finally now wrote the mail to my old therapist asking her if she has capacity.
Very very annoyed with my insurance and have been calling them a lot and waiting for an answer from them.
This just leaves me powerless and this whole thing just sucks leaves me with 0 energy and it makes it hard to do anything.Been trying to socialize more with limited sucess. Have been participating in a theater group which is nice.
What isn't so nice is me going to a queer space but even though I theoretically fit in (Trans / Somewhat NB / just an entity basically). It just felt really horrible the whole time I was there and it felt like I didn't fit in at all which really sucks and is really frustrating but that's okai.I hope one day I will feel happy in my own skin and brain.
I hope it will get better. I hope I won't be suffering like this all my life. But we shall see. -

My plan was either to sew to program something. Since I still struggle with motivation and lack of energy I decided that sewing was the easiest and most relaxing option to pick for my project.
I started fixing one of my trousers that had a hole in the back pockets, and my goal was to learn the basics and maybe make some patches.
I did in this week 2 different kind of patches.
All the patches I made this farSo the order in which I created them goes as follows.
-

I ordered a embroidery hoop and my plan is to stitch on some fabric that I have yet to buy. I have been only sewing on those jeans patches which are a bit of a pain. They are quite tough and currently my fingers really hurt because pushing through the needles with 6 threads can become quite tough + I am just not used to the work and ya.
But it could be worse.But overall it's been pretty fun.
That's about it.
That's all.
Over and out.

I have also already created very very simple patches out of denim patches.
(Basically I have created more work since I now have to attach them to my clothes but that is fine. -

- I have bought over the last 3-4 years a few patches and it would be really cool if I would finally attach it to a garment. Also I could try to hand sew them on and maybe fix some holes in my fav jeans and reattach a button on my shirt -- i have been wanting to learn how to sew (with hand or machine) and I think this could be a great starting point.
It would also be cool to get into that whole DIY scene of like clothes and stuff. Because I think it looks harder than it actually is. - Finally try to start and finish my "codo project". I have bought a receipt printer and would love to connect it to a Website and sort of use it that whatever you type in the form field on the website it prints on a receipt. Since I suck at coding and have like no clue how to write any API's or anything I think this could also be cool. I have thought about the website's design a lot and I would love to make it look like a terminal. (I have no clue how to do it but yeah, it would be nice TO do it.
- DIY Tattoo - I would love to learn more about this and maybe even do some stick-and-poke tattoos. I already have some plans on what I want to do, but. It probably would be wise to just buy some fake skin and perhaps test it on that. I don't know. I already have a lot of the materials for it since I have a tattoo machine (which I am really scared of since it makes a scary sound).
Also just in general I should start working on my project for school for my graduation. It has been a lot. I have been struggling quite a bit with motivation and energy to do anything. Hmhhh but we will see.
Now I just need to pick one
or twoo or three - I have bought over the last 3-4 years a few patches and it would be really cool if I would finally attach it to a garment.
