BLACK CAT EMBROIDRY | Thread Painting from Start to Finish - Stitching Sabbatical

** THIS IS NOT A TUTORIAL **
This is a custom portrait and is not to be copied. The video was made to show progress on the portrait I was making, not to create a walkthrough! Please DO NOT copy this embroidery, it is NOT a pattern.
This embroidery was stitched in a 6" Darice hoop. It was embroidered on cotton fabric with a size 10 Dritz needle and DMC thread. The finished embroidery was framed in a hoop from Auburn Hoops.
This is a compilation of 5+ hours of footage sped up to 14 minutes. There are at least 10 hours of embroidery I didn't record!

I want to say thank you so much for showing your process! I'm extremely new to emboridery and I want to work my way up to a portrait of my calico cat, this really really helped to serve as a starting point

[@elise1189]

quartine is starting to get to me, but I have to say.... I'm not disappointed

[@alekzandrat4455]

This is so beautiful. And the fact that it looks like my late best friend Hagrid makes me tear up a little bit. So incredible xxx

[@cassgray9340]

My condolences for your loss. I was thinking about my late best friend as well 💕 🐱

[@evangelinev1370]

I love the fact that she's doing this professionally while watching a movie 😅😅

[@thinaalmeida8225]

omg yes! how?🤣

[@VetsrisAuguste]

I watched the whole thing. I was captivated the entire time. I was particularly impressed with how easily you can embroider with an actual cat sitting right in the middle of things. My kitty is too obsessed with string to let that go on without shenanigans.

[@99fpilot]

Wonderful to see your stitching; so inspiring! Thank you so much for sharing.

[@cica10901]

amazing! i can really feel the love that went into this 🧡

[@bobbieparsons1917]

Wow! That is awesome. I also would love to see you do some closer, slower videos of the eyes, mouth and shaded areas, so that we could capture it in more detail. Thanks for the inspiration

[@valcoupland7208]

Don't forget you can slow down the video yourself by pressing the flower-like symbol on the bottom right of the screen. That will let you slow the playback speed to whatever you want.

[@andrelizesoaresdacosta4220]

Que capricho lindo trabalho 😻😺😺

[@tranhtheuhangkhoa]

Hello there! I just watched your video on thread painting a black cat embroidery from start to finish, and I am blown away by your skills in stitching! The way you blended different shades of thread to create the fur of the cat is simply amazing, and the attention to detail in the eyes and nose really brought the piece to life. Your video was also very informative and easy to follow along, making it a great resource for anyone interested in thread painting or embroidery in general. I appreciate the time and effort you put into creating this video and sharing your techniques with us. I have already subscribed to your channel and I'm looking forward to seeing more of your beautiful embroidery projects. If you're interested, I also have a channel where I share my own embroidery techniques and designs. Once again, thank you for sharing your talent with us and keep up the fantastic work!

[@marialuizaamarantedanobreg4928]

Magnific! ❤️
