dude.. ive seen your progress shots around but i never really realized how hard stitching these things are until i recently started working on embroidering a moderately big live laugh lobotomy with some roses in the corner on a geometrical deer head poster (you know like those white mom starter pack living room signs except its made of cloth) that got garbage picked. wdym a few hours of work and i'm halfway done with the LIVE's L. you're so strong 💀/genuine

hahaha tnxx

love those signs

its not necessarily that i would consider myself strong, tbh i just really underestimated how long this would take and my brain just wont let me give up.

hi!! this project is so impressive, i really admire your dedication to it! seems like you tend to spend at least an hour on it per day - what do you do during that time? podcasts, music, movies, just thinking? i’ve always struggled with finding things to keep me entertained during long-haul projects. thanks!!

thank youuu  ⁠( •͈⁠ᴗ⁠•͈)

umm in the beginning i listened to the Magnus archives podcast but i finished that a while ago. now it mostly youtube videos i put on for background noise. Like let's plays of Zelda, Morgan Donner or Adam Savage (i really like to listen to people that are very excited about what they are doing) also tv shows from when i was young like avatar and w.i.t.c.h.

i don't really pay attention to them so i prefer something i already watched or something that doesn't take that much mental energy.

but i guess it also depends on what i am doing cus when i was doing the guardians i didn't need to think about the pattern so i could watch stuf that took more of my attention.

hope this helps you with finding something to watch/listen to :)
