Excited to jump back into more regular posting with #acoloradaypril Day 7, Pink! Here is one of my favorite things I ever #embroidered: this sweet pink jumpsuit with some #stitched strawberries 😊🍓🍰 #artsky
I wrote a book 🤗

An embroidered shirt collar over a green sweater. The embroidery features a portrait of a brown St Bernard dog and a gold colored mutt. Both are bordered by blue flowers
An #embroidered collar I made for my BFF, featuring her #stbernard and my #mutt 🥰. I’ve never done anything like this before and it was very hard but very fun and made her very happy so overall a success 😃 #embroidery #ArtSky #dogsofbluesky
Thank you so much! If there’s ever anything I can help with please let me know 😊
An embroidered portrait on light green fabric of a brown, white, and gold Yorkie dog named Olive wearing a bright red sparkly hair bow. Next to the larger embroidered hoop is a matching mini portrait of Olive set into a jewelry pendant. Both pieces lay on top of a fluffy white blanket
Happy last day of #FebruARTy, pear! I don’t think I’ve ever stitched a pear before but I did #embroider this sweet girl on pear-colored fabric, sooo close enough?? 😅 This client wanted a matching jewelry pendant, which I thought was brilliant and so fun!
Thank you, that’s very kind of you to say! Your tool looks so clever—I’ll let my crocheting friends know ☺️

Thank you Bluesky for the lovely welcome to this #embroidery artist! Nearly all my pieces are commissions, which I open very infrequently, but starting RIGHT NOW I am running a commission lottery!
😅😅😅
Thank you so much, that’s really kind of you to say 💕
Thank you! All just embroidery thread! 🪡🧵
Thank you!
Thank you! This was for a client so I’ve never met Momiji but I always try my best to capture every animal’s sweet spirit 🥰
An embroidered portrait of a black and white cat on a hot pink magenta background
Happy #magenta day for #FebruARTy! Fun fact: this hot pink was so hot I had to cover it in white fabric while I stitched because it was messing up my rods and cones and changing my sense of color perception 🫠 #embroidery #catsofbluesky
Thank you! 💕
Thank you so much!

Happy #FebruARTy day 25! For #ArtYear, here is an oldie of Momiji, a sweet little white dog stitched with *no* white thread, just shades of brown, blue, yellow, and pink! #embroidery #stitched
It’s Abby’s 12th #gotchaday! She is my favorite muse (and often my favorite child 😬), and I love her so much 🥰. Here are some of my favorite pieces featuring this best girl! #embroidery
Really wish I had a full-sized #orangecat for today’s #FebruARTy prompt, orange, but this lil #embroidery pendant will have to do 😻
I missed #FebruARTy 5, eyes, but honestly eyes are the most important (and hardest!) part of any of my pieces. I love when people ask how I attached glass eyes to my portraits and I can tell them it’s all done with needle and thread!
Thank you! If you have any questions about how I did it lmk! I love sharing techniques with embroidery-curious folk 😊
Thank you!
Happy #FebruARTy day 4: purple! One of my favorite pieces of my dog, from one of my favorite photos of my dog, and a fun experiment adding color to my blank and white pieces 🥰
Thank you! 💕
Happy last day of #JanuARTy 31: Angle! This has always been one of my favorite photos of my work, back when I was experimenting with different ways to show it off 😊. Fun fact! This gorgeous girl belongs to writer, podcaster, and all-around great @hodgman.bsky.social!
10/10 💕
