Qr Codes - Tumblr Posts
I’m personally hopping on the Animal Crossing train and showing off some clothes! Here’s my King Boo Kimono! It’s not perfect, but at some point I plan to go back and redo it. I hope you guys enjoy it!
I couldn’t work on the Iliad this morning due to lack of working phone to take a picture with, so I worked on this instead.
It took hours longer than cross-stitch, but I like it.
Irritatingly, though, the QR reader app on my phone can’t read this one; and if it cant be read, i’ll have to undo it and rework it until t can. Though I’m given to believe the app I have is rather crap so I’ll try a few more out before undoing those hours of work. (And if anyone else has a QR app please feel free to try reading it and let me know if you have any luck)
Edit: my partner's QR android app can read it just fine, and that's good enough for me. Yay for not having to undo work.
QR sampler update. Letters A-D. Detail of C & D. C was so incredibly time consuming. It would take a lot to convince me I needed to do that again.
A-H (8/36) they all scan. Qrafter is the best free iPhone app I've found for scanning QR codes. I was thinking of making a mini gif-set tutorial for some of the more complicated woven stitches (such as the big squares on E and H), if anyone would be interested.
K, L Q, R K is Dutch knot, L is French knot, Q is sorbello stitch, R is French cross stitch. I really like puzzling out how I'm going to group the different types of stitches within the whole sampler. Sorbello stitch is very similar to Dutch knot (the difference is 45 degrees), and French knot and French cross stitch are also similar. All four are types of knot stitch.
This one's P. mountmellick stitch. Te big stitches are Rhodes stitch. In execution, mountmellick stitch is sort of half way between Dutch knot or Sorbello stitch, and an inverted feather stitch (guess which stitch is next?). And a shot of what the whole thing currently looks like, too.
A--R. Half way now. An detail of M and N. M might look pretty much like G above it, but I promise you they're different stitches. G is just a plain vertical cross, M is knot stitch/ four-legged knot stitch, where you wrap the thread around the cross before completing the final leg. The big stitch is captive rice stitch, to complement the triple rice stitch of the G above. N is Turkman stitch, and a spiral of my own design in the middle. Let's call it four-legged spiral stitch!
