The Writer’s Dilemma: - Want To Write A Novel - Want To Read 10 Novels For Inspiration - End Up Doing

So I wanted to make an embroidered Caduceus dice bag to have with my embroidered Mollymauk bag! Embroidering the pink lichen was fun but also takes a looong time. Both are available on etsy!

If sold out, I’ll periodically renew the listing when more are made! 

The Road Goes Ever On embroidered by seejor.

“After 100ish hours of work, I’m so happy to say this beast is done!!

For the most part, I had an idea that I thought would be cool, drew it up, and transferred it to fabric (here’s the hoop pre-stitching). Prior to this piece, I’d only done florals – some from patterns I bought online (Namaste Embroidery) and some of my own design – so really I just wanted to see if I could embroider a dragon. I hadn’t been embroidering long but was feeling ballsy.

So that’s the pattern… as for color choices: the mountain, clouds, fog, and trees were entirely a product of I’d bought a bunch of floss I thought was pretty and kind of went together and figured why not give it a try. I love how the mountain came out. The gold for the text was my favorite gold I’d worked with in a sunflower piece (I have an entire floss organizer of just shades of yellow because of that piece, so the gold pieces pretty much just followed). Smaug’s colors and pose in general were inspired by an illustration of Smaug Tolkien did that I’ve always loved.

Process in general: I kind of made most of it up as I went along. I knew what effect I wanted in various sections and if I couldn’t figure out a way to make it look the way I wanted with stitches I knew, I’d go googling. The pile of gold Smaug is on is all seed stitch (I don’t know if it’s technically seed stitch, but that’s what I’m calling it) and literally caused me to set this piece down for two years.

- the implement I used to transfer the design was a Sakura Gelly Roll white pen. In a pinch, the gel ink can be removed (like when I edited out the two other mountains)

- I wore a reasonably high powered, rechargeable headlamp for a lot of this project in an attempt to have my stitches be as precise as possible. It ain’t pretty, but it worked pretty well!”

Last shop update, I promise! Since it's Pride month, I do still have some Pride critters available. I am working on more so if you don't see one for you, send me a message! I might be working on it!

Critters are $10 each or $15 for 2 + shipping 💜

I cannot stress enough how important it is to do silly, frivolous things that serve no other purpose than making you happy.

i no longer respect the hustle i want universal basic income and dignity for everyone

Sneak peek of some new babies coming soon! Will add more pics later, if I remember. Silly brains.
