Star Trek and cross stitch

Profile art by Iskander
And now there are two!

Enjoyed it more the second time. I assembled it on the counter instead of the floor so I could sit/stand. It’s like a fun annoying puzzle. Can’t get too on the groove though that’s where you make mistakes! Fixable thankfully

Financially responsible Lego sets are nowhere near as fun as the real ones. Lego has better quality control than IKEA and I don’t have to sit on the ground to do it. But I made a thing!

It is his movie! I’ll let him have it (I’m also unapologetically a FF fan)

Ok, it’s held together with fabric tape, hot glue, and a prayer. Never look at the back. But from the front it looks great!

I’m wayyy too tired to figure out frame logistics right now but this is the vision. The problem is there’s really no space to get the cross stitch in there even without the glass. I gotta figure out how to mount it. Some sort of thin board? Hot glue and hope? This is why I don’t ever frame anything

I did it! I finished something!

One skeleton done!

I also have to concede I can’t stitch while watching tv anymore. It goes so much faster without it. Plus I got about 3 hours into a good audio book. So my book count will go up!

Ok, did 3 lengths of the floss. And also two runs of Hades tonight while having tea. Success

Why finish a project when you can start a new one…

Earl grey latte and new Lower Decks comics at the local comic shop.
Wish every day could be a day off

Found our shelf

Ok, I got this response. Have DMed

They’re giving Karlie Kloss at the Met gala “Looking camp right in the eye”

Reunited! The Search for Spock is over! No far tol pan required.

Spock’s lil tricorder is too big for him to hold though

I read that thread about POG juice and now here I am having POG juice. I’ll eat/drink anything with passion fruit in it

Ok, at this rate I’m going to need a bigger tree for my Star Trek ornaments. Especially if they make Tendi and Rutherford, which they should! But yay Lower Decks representation!

Done with the black thread on my owl! It turned out so cool! Blackwork fill feathers in shades of grey to come

Pattern is by QuaternionCreations

Ok, I did some work on my owl. Both feet areas and the start of the teeth tonight. I wish I could stitch faster! Baby steps

Eyes are done

I finally finished the outline 😭

Let’s not talk about how I apparently can’t count and had to rip parts out a few times. But filling in will theoretically be a lot easier! So many going over 3 or 4. Oof

The black is finally finished!

Though I forgot I hadn’t quite finished, started the new color, and had to go back. Oops. It’s so much easier stitching with 2 threads instead of 3! The rest of it will hopefully progress faster

Started this owlie tonight!

Granted I would have done more if I hadn’t been distracted by Jenny Nicholson’s Star Wars hotel video I put on for background noise, but what can you do

Ok, Garak has his full face! Watching his little grin form was fun
That’s most of the fun part. A lot of fill in stitch progress to go, so that’ll go slower
