This one won’t take long.
There’s a story behind it, of course.
Back in the day, when I was designing my Awakening piece, I was having issues. It was right after the game came out, and there weren’t a lot of good reference pictures. I complained to @comradewodka about how I couldn’t tell if Grima was blue or purple and she said
“why don’t you use color-changing floss?”
unbeknownst to her (until recently) that became a running joke in the apartment and, because I’m an asshole, I decided to immortalize the words in, you know, color-changing floss. I just didn’t get around to actually finishing it. Until now!
I still don’t understand why color changing floss isn’t okay for “serious” projects! Apart from it being hard to control how it looks outside of smaller subsections.
(Send me this when it’s done and I’ll frame it and put it in the bathroom)
It’s mostly about control but also about the look. You can’t shade it, you can’t color match it…it would be like leaving one section of a piece in cell-shading when the rest has soft-shading: very obvious and it doesn’t fit at all.
…I’ll make you your own copy because this is totally going to hang in our craft area lol! (it’s fine honestly I’m flying through it so I can probably finish one in 3-4 days of good stitching or so)
Ah you don’t HAVE to, it was just a suggestion I found funny since its me that’s being made fun of
Just remember that we wouldn’t make fun of you if we didn’t love you 🙂
