Feeling Random Friday #8 with Lauren Tyger


On the second Feeling Random Friday for today I bring you Lauren! My friend Tasha tagged me in the above photo from Lauren's Instagram account, and I'm glad she did. The message, "Embrace the chaos" is one that I can definitely learn to embrace. I suffer from first child, type A perfectionism syndrome.

Lauren has a sassy feminist vibe and isn't afraid to put into stitches what we're all thinking. In addition to her embroidery, you can live vicariously through Lauren and her world travels and busy life via her Instagram feed. You can find Lauren on Instagram and Etsy. Here are some of my favorites.

Friday Instagram Finds No. 45 with Femmebroidery


Happy Friday, Stitchers! I hope you've had a fabulous week, and a weekend filled with stitchy plans. It's officially Spring this week in the Northern hemisphere, and I have a great idea for your leftover bits of embroidery floss. I stuff my leftover bits of floss from projects in a Mason jar, and then each Spring I spread it out on the bushes and trees in my yard. The birds take it, and integrate the floss into their nests, making them very colorful! This year, I also put out one of those small, wire cages that you'd normally put suet cakes into, and stuffed it full of floss bits, too.

This week we're taking a look at @femme.broidery. Maria is a hand embroidery artist, and she makes beautiful and colorful pieces. I just love her animal prints with embroidered accents. I'm still trying to figure out what kind of fabric she uses - whatever it is, it's awesome! Her Instagram feed does feature some hoops with R rated words on them, so if you're easily offended, you've been forewarned. I love everything she does, and I think most of you will, too. Take a look!
