Bored Pandagot in touch withAnna Hultin, to discuss getting into arts and crafts. After all,Halloween(and the fall in general) is a great time to DIY some decorations and even costumes. So we asked her to share some good starting points for novice embroidery artists.
With bat wings and a heart full of mischief, this little creature is ready to soar into Halloween night!
“You don’t need to spend a lot of money on supplies to make quality work. Once in a while I’ll splurge on specialty thread but 99% of the time I stick to the run of mill DMC embroidery floss. If you’re going to spend money on something higher quality it should be the hoop. Having a quality hoop will make it a lot easier to keep your fabric taut while you work. I recommend bamboo hoops. Even then it will usually be under $10.”
“The biggest misconception I see aroundembroideryis the amount of time it takes to create a piece. Remember, this is hand stitching! It’s a very slow process. I’ve had people gawk at my pricing before until they tried embroidery themselves and realized how long it really takes to create a single piece.”
Two crows were observed perched silently atop a street light during a misty morning in coastal California.
“My biggest advice is just to get started! It doesn’t have to be perfect. If you fall in love withembroiderythe way I did then your work will become more advanced with time and practice. Do it for the joy of the process, not the expectation of an outcome.” If you want to see more of her work, check out herInstagram page,Etsy accountandpersonal site.
