House Stark sigil embroidery. It just needs to be trimmed and glued to the hoop. I’m thinking of selling embroidery patterns that I’ve been working on. For ASOIAF/ GOT ones I have Stark, Lannister, Targaryen, Tyrell, and Baratheon. I also have a few Parks and Rec ones as well as Adventure Time ones in the works. I’m thinking they’ll go for $3-4 depending on how complicated the patterns are. I would also sell the samples I make for $25-35 (besides this one since it has a slight stain and Stark is my favorite house) and take commissions. Anyone interested?

Made this for my boyfriend's birthday in June. The words are lyrics from "I Lost my Wind" by the Microphones.

Ron Swanson and Jean-Ralphio embroidery.

Embroidered with DMC perle cotton on a 4" hoop.

Also if anyone wants one of these you can contact me.

Christmas Project Progress

Finally, here are my holiday projects!

1) One pair of mens slippers.

2) 3 of these hats, which are from a beard hat pattern, but I just don’t make the beard.

3) 1 of these headbands, possibly with different flowers.

4) One of these headbands, but adult sized, and probably a different flower.

5) An iPad case that will look something like this (but I’m improvising the pattern and not using handles):

6) A Kindle case similar to that iPad case.

7) One of these hats.

8) One of these scarves, (I used this pattern last year).

9) One pair of these socks.

10) One pair of cabled mitts.

11) A striped baby jacket to match the long elf hat I already posted (green and white stripes). (3/4 done)

12) A Lady Mary hat, like the one I made for my Halloween costume.

13) One cabled cowl.

14) Two quick chunky cowls.

15) Assorted snowflake ornaments. (half done)

16) A cabled hat.

17) The baby elf hat that I already posted about.

18) A chevron neckwarmer.

19) A pair of mittens (finishing tonight!)

Still have a lot to do, but I'm making up a schedule on my calendar to help.

Made snowflake ornaments while waiting in a line for gas only to be told they ran out. I'm going to be stiffening them before I wrap them up. At least I did something productive today though.

This is the back and left front of little jacket I'm working on as well.

I live in northern New Jersey, so I may not have power for much longer, but to my followers who also live in the northeast U.S. please stay safe, try to stay home (or in another safe place) and off the roads!

Slippers worked with two strands of worsted weight yarn.

Here's a cabled cowl that I completed a few weeks ago. It's one of my Christmas projects.

Finally, here are my holiday projects!

1) 2 pairs of these slippers minus the flowers. One will be modified to fit a man. The other pair has been finished already.

2) 2 of these hats, which are from a beard hat pattern, but I just don't make the beard.

3) 2 of these headbands, possibly with different flowers.

4) One of these headbands, but adult sized, and probably a different flower.

5) An iPad case that will look something like this (but I'm improvising the pattern and not using handles):

6) A Kindle case similar to that iPad case.

7) One of these hats.

8) One of these scarves, (I used this pattern last year).

9) One pair of these socks.

10) One pair of cabled mitts.

11) A striped baby jacket to match the long elf hat I already posted (green and white stripes).

12) A granny shrug.

13) One cabled cowl, already completed.

14) Two quick chunky cowls.

15) Assorted snowflake ornaments.

16) A cabled hat.

17) The baby elf hat that I already posted about.

I know it's a lot, but a lot of these things are started already, or are quick to make, so I'm confident in my ability to do this.
