Emergency Commissions

So my roommate got fired .... Again. My pay isn't terrible but it can't support 3 adults and pay the rent for a house that was planned for 3 incomes by itself. I'm doing what I can't to pinch everything that comes in and find some extra sources on top of it.

So that's where this post comes in. I'm opening up emergency commissions. I can generate cross stitch patterns, stitch pieces of varying sizes for physical products, and do sample stitching for other pattern makers. Because of the high variability with material cost/time based on complexity of the piece, estimates are difficult to give for physical products, but patterns start at $5 for up to 3" x 3" font work and go up from there. All is open to discussion based on the product and the budget of the customer.

My Kofi is also in my about if anyone wants to support me that way.

Oh hey, do you know what time it is? It is highly specific resource time!

Today we have the Royal School of Needlework Stitch Bank! There are HUNDREDS of stitch types in the RSN Stitch Bank.

And more added regularly, let’s look at a recent addition

I picked the first one in the 25 recently added Elizabethan stitches, the Elizabethan French Stitch

The stitch bank provides written and photo tutorials as well as a video option to learn to do it yourself. There are examples of the stitch in use, resources, references, everything but a needle and thread!

Normalize going into people’s ask boxes and ask them random ass questions.

Tumblr used to be so much fun with all the asks (anonymous or otherwise), and we need to bring those back, especially now that we finally have a half-decent blocking feature in place.

Ask people things! Message them! Don’t let tumblr inbox die! It’s one of the features that made tumblr tumblr.

Emergency Commissions 🚨🚨

My roommate got laid off a few weeks ago and it looks like they're being denied unemployment. That makes me the sole income for a household of 3 disabled queer adults, which no matter how you try to stretch it does not cover rent, utilities l, and groceries.

And so....

I'm opening full commissions. Sewn pieces, patterns, patches, buttons, anything cross stitch you can think of. Hit me up and we'll figure something out. Prices on this kind of thing are extremely up to the complexity and size of the project, but once I have an idea of what you're looking for I can provide an estimate.

Physical products US only.

A recent message made me realize I never actually posted just my header image as a post, and it's lovely so I should. I don't make a ton of mini pride flags anymore since I can't keep up with physical items in an Etsy store. That said, my work is available on an individual commission basis with the understanding that sometimes things will take me a bit with work school, and preserving the last shred of my mental health. Just shoot me a message <3

I HATE working with this bright white thread. It unravels if you look at it wrong, but it looks so good and dimensional. Anyway the executive dysfunction kept me from touching this for a while but finally got back into it. Will probably have it done this week 🤞🤞🤞

THE most overdue update of all

Progress I've made on my DandeDuo stitch-along. Bonus points if you can tell where I had to patch a tear in the fabric from an errant seam ripper during a huge frog.

Finish on Pidgey and the weekend's progress on Pidgeotto.

Very behind on updates. Spent a long time away from this project I got intimidated by learning to use the new scroll frame. Finally got back into it and wrapped on Beedrill and am almost done with Pidgey. I've mostly been working on the DumoMTL SAL, but don't have an up to day picture. I've also made quite a bit of progress on the bookshelf for the temperature tracker, but don't have an up to date picture on that either. Going to try to get an update picture in on those later this week.
