Character embroidery patch raffle -closed!
6 years ago
Hello! I hope everyone is well!
So over the last year and a half me and my friend have been slowly making payments to an embroidery machine I had on layaway. We finally got to bring it home a few weeks ago!
The lady at the store said we’d never be able to make custom embroidery patterns ourselves. So we took the machine home and promptly proved her wrong.
Now we want to practice making custom embroidered patches of people’s characters! And I thought a raffle would be a fun way to do that.
The finished product will resemble this: https://www.dropbox.com/s/4pze2qr21.....%20PM.jpg?dl=0
The finished patches will be mailed to you for free. Please be willing to provide a mailing address.
You will receive 1-3 patches of varying sizes on various fabrics. The thread colour will be as close as possible, but likely won’t be exact.
There’s a few little things we need for this as we are still learning. This only needs to apply to the character’s head as that’s what is being used. Please make sure your character fits these requirements:
- No more than two colours on the face (eyes don’t count towards this)
- No more than two colours for the hair
- Simple or no markings
OTHER STUFF:
- Post saying you want to enter and I will give you a number. Feel free to include a fun fact about yourself or something else, or ask me a question if you have one!
- You don’t have to be a watcher for this one, but I’d really appreciate it if you like my stuff!
- The raffle starts with one winner being chosen, but if enough people enter a second winner will be added.
- There may be another one of these raffles later if we decide to try more complex characters.
- This raffle will go until March 30th
Cheers! And thank you all for looking. Let your friends know if you want! The more the merrier.

(Should i include my ref in this?)
I’ll grab the ref from you if needed ^^ no need to include it here.
Good luck!
I would love to enter, and agree to everything.
Thank you! It was so rewarding to pick it up from the store.
Sushi is so much better than bacon! I totally agree there!
Thank you! I appreciate the kind words ^^
Awww thank you! Best of luck! And when I figure out prices I’ll be sure to inform you of them!
^w^
That sales lady was really rude and shouldnt have been like that. Thats just plain bad customer service.
I agree! I know she’s trying to sell something, but it just deters me from going back there!
Fact and a question: I've been drawing since I was 10. When did you start?
I know the feeling XD but best of luck friend!
That’s great to know! I started when I was 12. I had just moved to a different province and met the friend who’s making these embroidery patches with me! We started drawing together ^^
Oh very nice! Thanks for sharing!
You already know what I feel on that lady xD
Fact about me: Teo says I talk back to him in my sleep. Apparently Sleep Antha is Sass Master.
Yiss XD
That’s amazing
What is your favorite month, and why?
My favorite month is September, because the leaves start to change and the local fair comes. :3
Oooh the fair sounds like so much fun! I’d have to say October is my favourite, for similar reasons! The leaves are changing and the weather is finally cooler. And I love Halloween ^^
An interesting fact, I have three library cards (although one needs to be updated )
Oh nice! I bet they come in handy!
This is so cool- I think I might also save up for one, or figure out how to hand-embroider something so complicated. What kind of hand-crafts do you like to do? (I think you've sewn a jacket in the past?) I'm a fan of embroidery & crocheting
I’m glad you think so! They’re pretty expensive, but worth it. We got lucky and got a deal at an event that saved us about $200 overall. A friend of mine does hand embroidery, it’s time consuming but so gorgeous ;w;
I love jewelry making, making keychains and charms, a little cross stitching, hand sewing, and origami! I’ve made a few jackets but the one I made for my Squall costume last year is the one I’m most proud of. The fur at the top is removable so I wear it all the time.
Crocheting is amazing! I love seeing what people can do.
I'm trying to dabble in cross stitching, but it seems lately I just have too much going on to find the spare time to do so! there's lots of neat patterns I'd love to master if I had the time.
Thank you so much hun ^^
Nothing fun about me to share tho XD Thanks a lot for the chance and good luck with the new machine!
Thanks for entering and good luck to you! ^^
I'd love to join

Perfect then! ^^
