So happy to be back doing #stitchtober after a few years break, I really enjoyed stitching this lil bat creature, it’s been so fun doing colourful Halloween stuff again 🦇

It’s officially autumn, my favourite season! 🎃🍁🍂
Can’t wait for stitchtober to start now, it’ll feel like a whole month of Halloween 👻

10 years since I started #stitchtober!! I thought I’d share some favourites in the run up to this years set 🎃👻
From the original 2016 set!

A few folks had asked and as I am doing #stitchtober this year I thought I’d do a little prompt list for anyone else that wants to join in too! 🎃
We’re doing 1 each week for the 5 weeks of October so it’s a bit more manageable to take part in 🥰👻 #embroidery #stitchtober2026

I'll probably have longer updates over on my blog, time permitting. As always, feel free to mute the tag #Stitchtober if you don't want these updates to clog up your feed. Totally understand!

Thankfully, the scope of projects aren't as big. But doing a shirt nearly entirely by hand (Some machine sewing, but due to recovering from surgery I couldn't use my machines) it's been taking much longer. #Stitchtober

For those who aren't familiar with #Stitchtober:

I started that as a way to force myself to finish any project before starting a new one. Started it two-ish years ago over on Twitter with a skirt I was moseying along on. Last year was another walking skirt.

Projects I'm currently working on:

Sewing: Wrap top number two, with proper alterations in place.

Knitting: Stitch Surfer socks using stash yarn. And finishing Through the woods hooded cowl. I nearly forgot about that haha.

For those who don't knit/crochet:

Second Sock Syndrome is a thing where a lot of knitters/crocheters don't make it to the second sock on a project. Especially on thin yarn and tiny needles.

I'm a little late on my #Stitchtober shenanigans, but Day Job stuff prevented me from doing things. And I got into assembling my book nooks. But!

I've been at work hand sewing my shirt and hope to have it done by the end of the month. Knitting is underway with a (GASP) a second sock!

Ik heb een vrije middag en eindelijk een beetje positieve energie, maar daarvoor zijn er ineens duizend dingen om te doen en ik kan niet kiezen 😂

Boek lezen, schilderen op nummer, naar de stad voor borduurgaren voor stitchtober, vilten bloemen maken?

En dan zijn er ook nog opruimen en mn was

Does anyone know of any stitchtober like challenges coming up or does anyone want to do an embroidery/weaving collab or art swap?

A piece I made for one of @ajpritchett.bsky.social ‘s Stitchtober challenges. (I was overambitious with the details and ended up finishing it much later than October 😅.) I love the dark fantasy look of this one. 🗡️🛡️ #embroidery #embroideryart #embroideryartist #handmade #slowart #fiberart

The smallest I’ve ever embroidered was this little tarot spread from a few years back for Stitchtober.

Did I get the skirt done in one month? Nope. But I got 90ish% done and curing always takes a couple of weeks. The rest of the fabric I am seeing if I can make a hat with it and maybe some matching gloves/writstlets to go with it.

#Stitchtober update:

The skirt panels and placket are attached! Now to fell down the edges, even the hem, sew on the waist band and let the sucker cure for two weeks, Then it's hem tape, closing fasteners and done!

#Stitchtober update:

The drawers are done!...

Aaaand I made them too big. Not the end of the world, I will be taking them in to make them fit properly. I'll be working on the skirt tonight. And watching trashy romance stuff.

#Stitchtober update:

The drawers are sewn together.....

Aaand I made it a wee bigger than expected. Not the end of the world. I can put in snaps to make it adjustable.

BTdubs, if you are working on stuff, tag me! I wanna see what you're working on during #Stitchtober (use the hashtag for ease)

And if you just want to mute the hashtag for peace of mind, no worries! I'll be using #Stitchtober to mark my updates.

The skirt has the side front panels up, and I'll be cutting out the placket and waist band once the panel edges are sewn down.

Then it's time to even the hem and let the skirt cure for two weeks, and then add skirt facing and hem tape to protect the edges. #Stitchtober

#Stitchtober update:

The linen drawers are nearly done!

I have to sew on the waist band, make button holes, select buttons, and then iron/wash/iron for them to be ready for me to wear with my chemise.

This is intentional. I am doing my best to do stuff offline like Stitchtober and other things when I'm currently on semi-hiatus from streaming. Having to dedicate time to sit down and write posts is very helpful.

I get to think of things to post and it it's good, it gets posted.
