I free-handed a bee and some honeycombs on some jeans with the last of my yellow embroidery floss, and I’m pretty happy with how it turned out.

I’m not a professional, and I certainly don’t do things the way you’re “supposed to” (planning things out, sketching them with water-soluble ink/chalk), but I had fun making this and I’m excited to wear it :D

One thing I learned is that denim requires a thicker needle and not necessarily a sharper tinier one. I was using a thinner one previously and it kept getting stuck between threads and bending when I tried to pull it through. It’s way easier with a small embroidery hoop and a big needle!
