I just hit 15K followers ๐คฏ I am, for lack of a better word, gobsmacked.
I hopped on IG about 3 1/2 years ago, when I started doing embroidery and was looking for ways to learn more about the craft from other stitchers. I had no real plans to get serious about it. Posting was just a way for me to document what I was doing (along with a handful of my other crafts), to be able to ask questions, and to comment on othersโ beautiful work. My stupid username was simply carried over from another social media site โ an in-joke, a linguistic absurdity. (Why did I not pick something more clever? Or at least sensical?)๐คฆโโ๏ธ
Then I discovered how amazing embroidery can be and I came to realize that not only did I love it, I was pretty good at it. Flash forward a few years, and I have the support of 15K amazing people like you (well, probably a bit less plus a few very caring bots) who appreciate and are interested in my work. It boggles the mind.
I am extremely humbled and grateful to have your support as you follow me on my artistic journey. Thank you from the bottom of my warm garlic heart! ๐ฅ๐งโค๏ธ
This milestone provides a nice opportunity to mark the next chapter of my journey. Look for some biggish news from me in the next few days! Stay tunedโฆ
