Documenting my adventures in hand embroidery!
Taking advantage of a lazy Saturday to transfer some patterns for some “embroidery in progress” towels. About to try out an iron-on transfer pen from Sublime Stitching (do they have a Bluesky?) — already super impressed, and haven’t even gotten to the ironing part yet! #embroidery

#handembroidery WIP check!
Looking pretty good so far, and the stretcher bar frame is holding up quite nicely!

Friends, why is the most important step in a #handembroidery project the single most tedious thing ever? Damp stretching My Lady Adelie to get all the wrinkles out after a gentle bath, and getting the pins in place is a pain (sometimes literally! 📌)

A very long and mildly frustrating day at work means cueing up the new Bernadette Banner video, cracking open a bag of peanut butter m&m’s, and doing some therapeutic stabbing via #handembroidery. First real #embroidery project is nearly done!

Plan for the day: @overlysarcastic.bsky.social Detail Diatribes playlist and lots of #handembroidery! Love days off 😊

These last two weeks have been absolutely insane IRL and I’ve barely been able to get any kind of #handembroidery done, but check out the lap stand my beloved Momma Penguin sent me!

At long last my first embroidery of 2025 is finished! The light is awful so I may take a better picture tomorrow but for now, here it is. Come and take a wander with me…😊🪡🌿🌺 *completely freehand stitched without patterns, paint or guides. #stitchedart #thesewingsongbird

Scroll Stitch is going into #embroidery stitch Time Out. It’s the one stitch that I as a lefty just cannot get to work. Naughty stitch.

Let’s get some #handembroidery on this heckin #handembroidery account. Behold, Rainbow Sampler II progress and my wonky Coral Stitch. Really looking forward to finishing this guys so I can get to some *actual* projects.

Not much #handembroidery going on today, but have a pic of my Edmunds floor stand getting a much-needed sanding. Trying to decide if I want to paint or stain him. What do we think #embroidery peeps?

Apologies to my roommate for clattering #embroidery frame parts all over my worktable in our living room at 11pm. Bad Penguin 😓

Hello Bluesky! I’m Teviya, known elsewhere on the internet as 00AwkwardPenguin00. This account specifically is for #handembroidery and topics relevant thereto, as I try to reconcile my love of the art with my dislike for its traditional motifs. No flowers to be found here! 🌸❌
