I did embroidery on my shopping bag

Have a great sunday hivers I hope you had a great day I have been participating in this creative community for around three weeks and each time I tried to do something different and creative as it seems boring of somone will continuously do a same sort of stuff each time it looks boring and also don't engage others that's why this time I have tried some embroidery rather then traditional cooking or drawing.


A story
Last time when I was coming back from my aunt's home (as I often visit her) she packed my all clothes in a fabric bag rathen then plastic and I consider it as a small souvenir from her and I now I often took it with my self while regular shopping as it reduses that nasty plastic bags and looks very ethical.
It's fabric texture was also good for embroidery so I decided why not give it some potential and do it now I would like to discuss about the prosess and how I did it.

Procedure

Requirements

  • Scissors โœ‚๏ธ
  • Thresds
  • Needle
  • Fabric
    First of all I decided to make a print of sketch to make accurate lines but later when I tried with my black pointer it seems satisfying my early steps were easy as a started it by making leaves and stems by straight stitching beloe are some shots during the eary stage process.

After making stems and leaves I did some french knot stitch for the bossom with goldon threads which makes it more delicate as it was my first time trying a full print befire that I was continuosly practising the different stitch patterns on a separate cloth.


Since I was practising I have learnt some patterns including leaf ๐ŸŒฟ stitch straight stitch for making stems or straight lines blanket stitch fir making petals, French knot stitch, lazy daisy stitch I have practiced much that now I can confidently make some floral designs.

I am very happy by learning this new skill but it was quite expensive the threads were costly for my budget but I still did it for my happiness mental satisfaction I think we should do all that stuff that we desire we should must once give it a chance either we win or not is an another thing.


Before making those petals the whole thing was just looking too flat for me but when I made my first mascot petal stitch flower I realised how beautiful it is going to bebut mascot stitch wasa bit messy and hard but I did it.


After doing this I spend more time then it requires in selecting perfect colour for that small flower next to it as I had only two threads left enough to make that flower and those were purple ๐Ÿ’œ and orange ๐Ÿงก as the embroidery overall was a shady tone so I decided to do some orange and it looked perfect ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿผ.



I was so excited when I made it that I intentionally took tons of images I will love to share the final results in different shades as today it was a sunny day.

This is how my bag looks like overall after such a struggle and delicate work it was fun but a bit tarding don't forget to share your opinion about my creativity
