This is part of my ongoing Discworld jacket embroidery project. Of course Great A'Tuin has to be on there. And of course it has to be the biggest one of them all.
I’m going to put the finished product in my masterpost, but I’m so proud of the thing that I have to put it in an extra post beforehand. Enjoy!
Update!!!
Behold: the elephants! 😁
The turtle moves! Now it’s just the “cargo” left. And the universe. Well.
Update 3: Why did I have to try single thread for the disc. Why. How did I ever think that was a good idea. This is taking aaaages.
I’d say never again, but I know myself too well…
Still trying to decide whether to outline the landmass with darker thread or not. It would make the lands more distinct - but it might also make it look more like a comic. If you have any thoughts on it, let me know. I’ll only decide once I’ve finished the rest of the disc and that’ll be at least a week, if I had to guess.
I finally had some time to continue and the disc is done! Now just some stars, planets, etc…
There’s a rare rabbit show coming up in a town a couple hours from here which is going to feature britannia petit rabbits which is a great breed that was seemingly created as a mean joke because they’re a mini breed that’s not really any good for meat or hides but despite being Bambi levels of cute they have a reputation for extreme aggression.
I’m fascinated by this. Literally what is the point of it existing if not to make children cry when they try to pet it. It’s animal breeding for the misanthrope.

please look the artist wearing a suit with a pattern of her own painting on it and in doing so imitating her own art, I just think that’s iconic of her
Torchwood is a very silly show but in some respects is it extremely realistic, for example Tosh (IT person) and Ianto (Admin) being the only members...
