Outfits of the Guard from an older fic of mine, Tangerine and Roc. Supposed to be a bit of a mix of styles from Central Asia in the late 15th century as they go about their travels, with a little battle-ready touch.
Made some loyalist Space Marine cross stitch patterns. Many of them are untested, I can't guarantee they work. But the idea was for them to fit into an 8cm hoop with 18ct aida.
There isn't enough grimdark crafting!
Space Wolves, Dark Angels, Salamanders, Iron Hands, Ultramarines, White Scars, Blood Angels, Raven Guard, Imperial Fists
boy don't get too into historical textiles it will RUIN fanfic set in any kind of historical fantasy verse because i know I KNOW the writers are using the silk clothes/sheets ripping actions to depict intensity of experience but ALL I CAN THINK ABT IS HOW MUCH TIME & WORK THAT TOOK TO WEAVE AND MAKE IN THAT SETTING AAAAAUGH
and then im thinking abt how IN THAT SETTING (watsonian) they should KNOW that and they would inherently have more respect for their things and it should just !!! be written with a lot more characterization weight if they're engaging in this kind of behavior regardless, u know?????
Freddie Mercury is the greatest musician of all time and his songs are great and still relevant. It was he who inspired me to create this cross stitch design.
Tried my hand at embroidery for the first time by making this little llama! I'm relatively new at hand sewing and the fabric was kinda old and loosely woven so it looks a little messy but it was fun to make. :)
