I’ve embroidered a version of the starry night before - the one with an exploding Tardis (which is my profile pic)
but this time I just did the starry night scene although the fabric background is tardis themed!
5" hoop
I used 3 strands of thread at once and just started stitching.
I didn’t sketch it out first.
Fabulous! Looks so painty like the orig. Really cool.

You have me quite liking this type of embroidery…it feels much more intuitive to me…love how you just jump in and blend as you go…it turned out lovely…have you found that impressionist art is most suitable to this type of embroidery?
I love the soft, blurred look of the art and this rendering.
For me it is because I don’t enjoy embroidering from a pattern and since I’m free-handing it, impressionist art is more forgiving. There’s no such thing as going out of the lines!
I love the motion of this and you know exactly what your inspiration was. How long does something like this take you? I am guessing a while with all those layers. I especially love the subtle shading in the moon.
