About the final project for: Realistic Miniature Animal Embroidery

Realistic Miniature Animal Embroidery

“We have reached the end of the course! I hope you enjoyed all the stages of the process, all the classes, tips and all the content that was prepared with so much care for you! I know that starting to embroider pet portraits is always very challenging, especially in miniature ones. I've also been in this initial phase of learning something new and I know it's a little complicated for someone starting out, but don't give up! Training is the basis for you to improve yourself more every day, so whenever you can, train hard. You will see that with each little animal embroidered, your technique will improve a lot! I have prepared a list of essential steps to help organize your project: • Choose the pet's photo to be embroidered or use the same one from the course. • Draw from the chosen photograph or use the vectorized outline that I made available in the additional resources. • Pass the pet's risk onto the fabric. • Choose the color palette to use in your embroidery or use the colors indicated in the color class. • Embroider your pet with the needle painting technique, following the step-by-step instructions given in Unit 3. • Lastly, finish off the embroidered mini-portrait on a metal mini-frame base, as shown in Unit 4, or with other bases of your choice.

After completing your project, take a beautiful photo of your finished embroidery and the main parts of your creative process, share your project by clicking the "Create your project" button. Interact with Domestika community projects. :) And also post a photo of the finished embroidery on your social networks with the hashtag #MiniPetsDomestika. This way, I can see all the projects that are coming out of our classes here at Domestika! Whenever possible, I will also comment on the works and follow what is happening in the forum. A kiss and until next time! Carla :) ”

“Final project We have reached the end of the course and now you are ready to make the mini-embroidery of your animal. In this course, I taught you how to use the thread and needle to create realistic embroidery from a photograph. Here in class, I used a cat as an example, but you can use the knowledge acquired in the course to embroider whatever you want: dogs, foxes, bears and even other animals. Needle painting is a very comprehensive technique, that can be used to embroider different themes. Animals inspire me a lot, that's why my works usually have to do with this universe, but you can ...”
