A few days ago I posted about my first time designing and making my own crochet tapestry per the request of my cousin, and it’s finally finished! 🥹
💚I started off by talking with my cousin about what he wanted. I then made a few different designs on Stitch Fiddle and sent them to him for approval. After some brainstorming and adjustments, I got the go ahead and started crocheting my original design!
🧡We went with orange and green for the text and block background, but I ended up switching the colors because the orange I had was super bright and I wanted the letters to pop.
💚 If you’re familiar with tapestry crochet, then you’ll know how messy the backs can be 😵💫 so I ended up making an all white piece with the same dimensions and crocheting the pieces together so the back would be hidden! I was worried it would be hard to connect the two pieces, but it turned out surprisingly well!
🧡 I finished it off with a fun scallop border edge to make it look like the piece was framed (if you’ve seen my other tapestries you’ll know I love a good scalloped border!) and tied some yarn so he’d be able to hang it up if he wanted to!
⭐️ Overall, it was a pretty lengthy process but I’m glad I was able to make something for my cousin’s business and practice my color switching technique (especially when making letters/words!) I’m not sure if I would do a custom tapestry order again solely because of how long it took me to do and I don’t want to commercialize my hobby otherwise I’ll lose the motivation to do something I love 😖 but it was great practice and gave me a nice opportunity to use my creativity to design something as well as bring my vision to life!
