So, I wanted to make an embroidery of myself and I wanted it to capture my personality and style, so I carefully chose the elements that represent me the most.

I focused on my outfit. I embroidered my favorite top, carefully selecting the colors and stitches to accurately depict the fabric's texture. I used satin stitch for this part, as it gave a smooth and glossy finish that resembled the fabric's look. And then I embroidered the skin using satin stitch. I also embroidered my locket, which holds sentimental value to me, using the same satin stitch and a french knot. I chose to depict myself blowing a bubble out of my chewing gum, as it's something I often do when I'm deep in thought or relaxed.

And finally, I added my favourite earrings, which I used to wear almost every day! I used chain stitch for this part.

One of the most exciting parts of the embroidery was creating my hair. I decided to leave it open, as it's how I often wear it in real life. I used different shades of thread to add depth and dimension to my hair, and I made sure to stitch it in a way that allows me to style it differently if I wanted to. I used a french knots on the wrong side of the fabric and left some part of the yarn on the right side of the fabric to achieve the desired effect.
