Wow, awesome job! You are really talented! Once I tried to fix the hem on a skirt and knew my hands were for guitars, not needles & thread. So nicely done Jainie!!

@Torn1990 I knew you would. ;D It is a head turner. I starting to make patches if you want one let me know.

Do you use a regular sewing machine or something especially for embroidery?

@Robertina just my hands my mom taught me years ago. I just started again this is my first piece in about 25 years. my mom had a jacket covered in embroidery in her hippie days. I think that I maybe modern day trans hippie or something. I like open expression of myself. I feel a need for a middle ground so people can express gender variation of all kinds.

Love the work.  I thought you must have used a machine.  I bet it took you a while.  I've been thinking about taking up emroidery so I might be able to make something more practical than cross stitch.
