Faux 3D embroidery

Yet again, I saw something on Instagram and had to try it. I’ve seen several people make a design on fabric by “drawing” with hot glue, and then cover it with embroidery floss. I don’t generally use embroidery floss, so I had to get some, but the fabric I chose was leftover from making masks 6 years ago. :weary_cat:

Although it’s wobbly looking, I still like it. Surprisingly difficult to control hot glue. And only stabbed my finger twice! Here is the back, I thought it looked pretty neat!
