My grandma just called and, among other things, said “You have hips. That’s good! Men like hips!” and then she interrupted herself to say “Women like hips. People of your preferred gender like hips. I can never remember”  And I was like “Thanks grandma! My preferred gender is none of them, no thanks.” and she was like “Okay, no one will comment on your hips!” very self satisfied, like “aha, I have figured it out” I think like half her grandkids are some variety of not-straight and she can’t always remember which is which but she is the epitome of like “she’s a little confused, but she’s got the spirit!”

hello everyone and happy early pride!! 🌈

this is a project i actually worked on last year but posted it very late into june so i dont think it made the rounds i was hoping… so im starting it out a bit earlier this year 

i’m a sucker for pride flag sticker/etc. designs and i decided to create some of my own - they are subtle enough to be safe for anyone who maybe can’t normally buy pride stuff, but still recognizable within the community (hopefully lmao) 

then, of course i wanted to combine them all into one big piece that would still be subtle - i was inspired by those vintage butterfly species posters and wanted to recreate a version of that with my pride butterflies! the labels underneath each butterfly are short descriptions of what each flag represents, to also help keep things under the radar. super special thanks to @yourlocaltrylingual for helping me with the french translations <3333

all of the individual butterflies can be found on my redbubble, as well as the main poster! they all have nondescript names for safe ordering <3 

i hope everyone has a safe and happy pride month, i couldn’t have asked for a better community to be a part of!

❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Me, underestimating the effort I will put into everything: "This is going to be an easy chill project"

I love how this turned out but I am also so very sick of this kind of stitch. But that's probably true for anything that you repeat for what feels like a thousand times. Thanks to the amazing @zoeslittleblog for taking the pictures.

The star/ray stitch (whatever you call it) that is used the most here is from this tutorial. The koi is a DMC template and everything else, like the two pink flowers, is my own design. Everything here is made with multicolored thread, which makes for some nice effects. I especially love the one used for the koi fish, it was so much fun.
