#The things i do for a wüsthof 17-slot walnut wood knife block

I must be crazy but

Here we have my rendition to @where-does-the-heart-lie DTIYS

This is probably an odd choice in terms of "drawing" and not even sure if this fits into a dtiys but threads is my only language.

Actually, it took me a ridiculous amount of time to dicide if do it or not (and another ridicolous amount of time to finisht it) but life is short and how many more excuses do I need to embroider one of my favorite takes on Sabo?

I hope you like it as much as I enjoyed doing it ✨

Close up and a bit about the procces and choices unde the cut!

The pearcings are metal

In this case I thought that using only one color would not have worked so I chose to use more than black. First time ever using color threats. Why I do this to myself

This technique is called blackwork and usually is one color thread embroidery. The texture, light and dark is achived

through diferent patterns and thickness of the threats.

At first I wanted to make it bigger, so that the body pose would be more visible, but bigger meant more time and I had to take into account the deadline. And being a(n) functional adult takes a lot of time. This one took me around 30/35 hours (errors and little cries included), probably a little more.

I have learned A LOT during the proces and i'm starting to feeling it, the color threat thing.

I don't rule out completing the ASL trio just for my own enjoyment.

Tip: If you decide to choose colored threads, make sure you do it in sunlight; What I thought was a beautiful blonde in the light of my lamp, turned out to be a membership card to the Weasley family the next morning. I had to undo hours of work.

Lesson learned.
